BET Awards nominee and 2011 Ghana Music Awards Artiste of the year, Sarkodie says God is the source of the power that drives his success and appeals to his fans to rally behind him to win this year’s BET award.

In an interview with Kwame Poku (DJ Scientific) on Focus fm, few hours before the High Skuul Shower Pool Party in Kumasi, Sarkodie noted that God has kept him going and added that, he does not have any other spiritual backing.

Basically, I pray, I fast and I have a good background; my family, they are religious. So I just have to do the work, that is, I go to the studio, I work hard and I know God will help me,” he stated.

Sarkodie has been nominated for this year’s Best International Act (Africa) Award and will be counting on his fans to support him by voting for him to make that dream a reality.

He said with his new ‘Rapperholic’ album, he is very confident that he stands the chance of winning the award.

I know with my Azonto cribs and others, I stand the chance of winning. I hope that my fans will keep supporting me .They supported me in the first place .That is why Sarkodie was nominated. So I hope they will go to the next level by voting for me or by any means that they can to make Sarkodie win. It is going to be my fans, so I look up to them. They should help Sarkodie like they always do.”

Sarkodie says he is looking forward to playing more shows outside Ghana. He opined that, he will be going to Nigeria to have a program soon as the ‘U go kill me’ track on the ‘Rapperholic’ album is a big hit there.**
