Popular Ghanaian hip-hop recording artist, Joey B has said that he used to think celebrated BET Hip-hop award winner, Sarkodie couldn’t speak English.

And why is that? Joey B said he thought so because of the genre of music Sarkodie used to sing; kasahare or Twi-pop. Kasahare, translated from the Akan language- Twi, simply means rap, that is ‘to speak in a fast pace’.
