Days ago, Ghanaian reggae and dancehall musician Samini 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 😂 🤷🏾♂️

The tweet was after the musician had received a lot of bashing on social media about a 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.
“@KwekuFlick did the joint already… thot they would have called the young man and just done the right thing. Simple. Maybe this will make sense to you. It’s not about me. It’s the track oooooo Tom. 3ny3 d3 baako s3i. But we go learn am Chale … ok bye”
