Samini rants over ‘wack’ official Black Stars World Cup song

Ghanaian reggae-dancehall musician, Samini, has taken to social media to vent his displeasure over the newly composed official Black Stars World Cup song.

Not too long ago, the Kentos Music Band with the blessing of the Ministry of Youth and Sports released the official cheer song for the Black Stars.

Dubbed “Osey” the song is to whip up support for the Stars ahead of the games at Qatar, which commences on November 20.

It is officially, the Black Stars’ song for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

However, there have been widespread opinions that the song isn’t catchy enough for a World Cup banger.

Wading into the discussion, Samini shares in similar belief as he has taken to Twitter to throw shades at the writer and composer of the song.

Samini said a few other musicians including himself could have done better.

“The new black starts song tho, do we have to learn it before the world cup? whoever chose it probably wrote it too. Eiiiii track na 3y3 ya saaa no! Hmmm a few of us could have done a better job at that Chale anaa meeb)dam lol. But vim still for the boys. Go Ghana,” he wrote on Twitter.


Asides from this, King Promise has also teamed up with the Ghana Football Association (GFA) to release another official world cup song for Qatar 2022, titled Black Stars (Bring Back the Love).

The ‘Selfish’ hitmaker took to social media to launch the new song which also received low patronage from a lot of Ghanaians.
