Ghana’s rap legend Sarkodie has stunned fans with an intimate revelation about the origins of one of his most cherished songs, “Goodbye,” a track that has stood the test of time in his musical catalogue.
On Monday, June 23, 2025, the multi-award-winning artist responded to a fan’s post featuring a woman jamming to the timeless hit. Sarkodie seized the moment to share a sentimental detail: the lyrics to “Goodbye” were written in his mother’s kitchen in Tema, a setting far removed from the grandeur that now surrounds his career.
The track, which features Mugeez of R2Bees and was produced by Kill Beatz, is part of Sarkodie’s iconic 2012 Rapperholic album. Fusing heartfelt lyrics with Mugeez’s soul-stirring vocals, the song explores themes of emotional pain, lost love, and letting go—resonating deeply with listeners even after more than a decade.
Fans across social media were instantly drawn to the personal nature of Sarkodie’s post, with many praising the rapper for reminding them of his grassroots beginnings and the authenticity that continues to define his music.
The revelation has reignited interest in the song, which many consider one of the defining tracks of Ghana’s modern music history.
