Sarkodie misses out as Nasty C names his top three Ghanaian rappers

South African hip-hop star Nasty C has stirred conversation in Ghana’s music circles after revealing that Sarkodie , widely regarded as the country’s most decorated rapper, does not make his current top three list of Ghanaian rappers.

Speaking during an interview on Joy Prime on 24 November 2025, Nasty C explained that although Sarkodie did not feature in his top three selections, he still considered him among the strongest talents on the continent.

“He’s not in my top three at the moment. He is definitely in the top five,” he said.

When asked whether he would consider a collaboration with Sarkodie following their much-discussed ‘beef’ in 2022, Nasty C gave a cautious response:

“I don’t know, we would have to have a conversation.”

Pressed further on why such a conversation had not yet taken place, the rapper suggested that conflicting schedules and the absence of a formal mediator might be to blame.
