Exactly a year today October 10, 2018, Ghana's entertainment industry and social media platforms was buzzing with two names - Sarkodie and Shatta Wale.

That was the day Sarkodie pounced on the dancehall king with a diss song dubbed 'My Advice'.

The song became an instant hit and its popularity even spread to the shores of Nigeria, where his colleague musicians praised him for his wonderful punchlines.

The song was the first Ghanaian diss song to have recorded 1 million views on Youtube days after it's release.

Though lots of pressure was mounted on Shatta Wale to release a reply, it remains a fact that the reply never came.

Meanwhile, Sarkodie in an interview on Accra-based radio station Starr FM disclosed why he released the diss track.

“If he is a friend that you keep in touch with all the time and he keeps passing comments on social media all in the name of showbiz, how would you feel?”

“I get it. It’s showbiz but we have a friendship to keep. As much as I would want to do showbiz, there are some things that I would like to call you personally and resolve” he said.

For the benefit of our readers and music lovers, Ghanaweb has reproduced the exact lyrics in the song to enable them to comprehend exactly what he meant.
