"The new black starts [stars] 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 tweeted on November 19.

In a follow-up post, Samini commended young rapper, Kweku Flick for his latest campaign song for the Black Stars which he expected the GFA to reach out to him and develop into something beautiful.

"@KwekuFlick did the joint already… thot they would have called the young man and just done the right thing. Simple. Maybe this will make sense to you. It’s not about me. It’s the track oooooo Tom. 3ny3 d3 baako s3i. But we go learn am Chale … ok bye," Samini wrote.

The morale of my statement beyond politics, typos and grammatical errors remains the fact that the track is wack in my Opinions."
