Ghanaian dancehall artist Samini has described Ghana’s official Qatar World Cup song as wack.
In a tweet, the musician who has on a number of occasions been connected to the World Cup through music recordings and performances asserted the Ghana Football Association (GFA) and its partners could have done better.
He wrote;
IDid Germany 2006,performed the official song at the closing ceremony at SA 2010.2014 was yawa and 2018 we no fit go.Been there done that 4get hype.The morale of my statement beyond politics,typos and grammatical errors remains the fact that the track is wack in my Opinions π π€·πΎββοΈ

The new development comes after the musician received a lot of bashing on social media about his previous tweet suggesting the GFA could have reached out to him or a few others for a better cheer song.

He also expressed shock that the GFA did not reach out to Kweku Flick who had already released a “joint” which could easily pass as a cheer song for the team.
