Ghanaian heavyweight rapper, Derrick Sarfo Kantanka, well known as Amerado Burner has as a sign of respect urged entertainers and pundits not to compare him to his superiors.
In an interview on TV3’s New Day, Amerado has said that it will be very disrespectful for pundits and fans to compare him to legendary rappers like Sakordie and Okyeame Kwame. He stated that he does not match up with them at all.
“I don’t like to be pitched against the greats. Somebody like Koyeame Kwame, you can’t pitch me against him as to who is the best rapper amongst us. No! They are in the craft. They have worked on it so much. But then you can only compare lyrics. Even with that, you have to give them absolute respect”.
“We are all learning from Sarkodie. Sark is a very good rapper. Amerado is also growing in the industry. So I can never hate him”, Amerado says.
There has been some comparison between Amerado and Sarkodie recently. Many have compared the rapping prowess of Sarkodie and Amerado. However, the young rapper has said that he feels uncomfortable being compared to Sarkodie.
