Ghanaian rapper, Strongman has emphatically stated that he does not engage himself in ‘beefs’ that are not beneficial to his career.
Talking to Foster Romanus on e.TV Ghana’s Late Nite Celebrity Show, he said, “I always consider two things before getting involved in any beef. The first is, it should settle any differences I have with the other musicians. I believe that is the best time to settle such issues.”
He went on to say, the second instance will be only if it will push his career to the next level.
“If it wouldn’t push me to the next level, I don’t see the need to entertain you when I have no issues with you.”
Using himself and Medikal’s beef as an example, he stated, “That beef was beneficial to me and that is why I went on with it.”
The award-winning rapper emphasized that day in day out, he has the opportunity to engage in a lot of beefs but he sees them as pointless, thus his reason for not entertaining every beef.
Responding to what people say about some beefs helping musicians to push themselves and their projects, he said, “Sometimes it’s necessary because it gives us the attention we need to promote whatever it is we’re working on and bringing out.”
Strongman mentioned that, there have been a couple of times he had to ignore and not respond to some artistes who were trying to get his attention and start a beef with him. “I ignored them because I realized it will not help my career.”
Talking about his new look, the rapper stated that his new look is a result of his growth in the music industry and, “it’s just for now and it shows the new Strongman. As time goes on, I might change my look again. It can be in the next 6 months or even next year if I feel I can do something else, I’ll do it,” he explained.
