In 2022, Ghanaian rapper and Sark Nation boss Sarkodie recruited Ink Boy, a budding songwriter and singer, for his hit single One Million Cedis.

The song became an instant favourite for Sark Natives and many other neutrals. However, the collaboration between Sarkodie and Ink Boy is not free of controversies, as the latter has accused the former of not paying him his deserved royalties.

In a post on X, Ink Boy has called out Sarkodie for denying him his royalties in the full glare of the general public. He says he resorted to posting online because Sarkodie and his management are not replying to his messages.

Ink Boy's Post

In his post, he shared his disappointment with Sarkodie and his behaviour. He added that he didn't want to come to the public and share this, but seeing how he has been tagged as ungrateful, he feels he needs to clear the air. Also, he says he wouldn't come on X if Sarkodie and his management had replied to his many messages.

"King @sarkodie, what you are doing is not good at all. I place high regard on your name, but it seems you prefer me calling you out and people saying I’m ungrateful. Pls give me my royalties for one million cedis it’s long overdue, Haba, you be legend o nawa," he posted.
