The official video to the controversial banger, thus far in the year, ‘Jennifer Lomotey’- has finally been released.

The song which is the first single from the reigning winner of music reality show, ‘MTN Hitmaker’, Kurl Songx (formerly Kelvin) features rap royalty, Sarkodie and produced by multiple VGMA producer of the year, Kaywa.

‘Jennifer Lomotey’ music video was directed by Justin Campos, put together by Kaywa’s Highly Spiritual Music (HSM) label in conjunction with Steaman Entertainment, and ably managed by Blaq Standard Management.

The controversy

Sarkodie was threatened with a legal suit over sections of a song.

According to the Kloma Hengme Association, a line in the song attributed to Sarkodie which translates as “A noble Krobo lady with beads around her waist who has been cursed by Okomfo Anokye with promiscuity” is discriminatory and demeans the people of Krobo.

“This [lyric] is founded on a myth and in this case, this myth is created to cast aspersions on the Krobo people. They are therefore prejudiced and discriminatory, contrary to Article 17(2) of the Constitution of the Republic of Ghana which provides that “[a] person shall not be discriminated against on grounds of […] ethnic origin [...]”, the group said in a letter serving notice about the possible suit.
