Acting star and movie producer Yvonne Nelson has reacted to rap star Sarkodie’s new song which addresses the content of her debut book respecting their past erotic relationship.
On Father’s Day, June 18, 2023, Yvonne released I Am Not Yvonne Nelson, a book which claims in a chapter titled Abortion that Sarkodie asked her to terminate a pregnancy which resulted from sexual activities between them.
In reaction, Sarkodie, today, Wednesday, June 28, has told his version of events but in a Hiphop song produced by MOG Beatz and titled Try Me.
In the song, Sarkodie says he in fact asked Yvonne to “keep” the pregnancy even though “I wasn’t ready”.
He also insinuates that he was not sure the pregnancy was even his because he observed Yvonne was in the habit of sleeping around.
He said Yvonne rather moved to have the pregnancy terminated for the sake of her education.
He assessed her book as not “really good” but only selling because of “negativity” therein.
He sarcastically congratulated Yvonne for a successful “strategy,” however, and indicated that he has bought “one copy” of the book and “I’m about to read”.
Yvonne Nelson, who up until now has resisted traditional and new media temptations to comment on the controversy which has attended the launch of her book, has reacted on Twitter calling Sarkodie a liar.
She has explained that she was done with tertiary education in 2010, when the said pregnancy and abortion happened, and so the rap star he prefers to call “Michael,” is lying when he says she was “desperate to abort because I needed to complete school”.
In an even more dramatic twist, Yvonne invoked what appears to be a curse to judge between Sarkodie and herself. She hinged the jinx on the truthfulness or otherwise of her narration of events noting that her daughter and Sarkodie’s will bear the consequences where appropriate.
“As usual, you want to use rap to rubbish a pain a young woman felt. We both have daughters, lets see what life throws at them,” she tweeted.
Finally, Yvonne Nelson provided what looks like evidence to show that she was indeed done with “university” in 2010, and to her tweets, she attached hashtags saying: Tried you, You spitting lies, The truth sets you free and The youth is learning.
While Yvonne Nelson’s book sells like hot cakes, Sarkodie is in Denmark, Saturday, July 1, with his Jamz World Tour, celebrating his 2022 critically acclaimed and commercially successful Afrobeats 10-track album of the same name.
