Teen rapper, Awal Mohammed, will Wednesday release a new single titled, ‘Thankful’ in honour of award-winning musician, Sarkodie.
The song features Fortune Dane, and is dedicated to Sarkodie who has been supporting Awal’s education and career.
Sarkodie has been Awal’s god-father and assisted him to release two hit songs titled ‘Keep Feeling It’ and ‘Bone Ben’
Sarkodie also gave him the opportunity to perform on major platforms like Ghana Meets Naija and Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA). Sarkodie didn’t stop there, but went ahead to finance his senior high school education.
Awal has been living with Sarkodie for six years now. They still live together, as Sarkodie is still throwing more light on his music career.
Awal decided to record the new song titled ‘Thankful’ to acknowledge his god -father for all he has been doing for him.
Awal also thanked TV3 for coming up with Talented Kidz which gave him the opportunity to meet his mentor, Sarkodie.
The song was produced by Fortune Dane, the same person who produced Sarkodie’s ‘Hand-To-Mouth’ hit song.
