Kalyjay’s role in Sarkodie’s Grammy feature

Meanwhile, a popular social media activist, Kalyjay, has earned the admiration of social media users for playing a pivotal role in Sarkodie’s current interview with the Grammy Recording Academy.

This was after tweeps dug out some screenshots which in the past captured how Kalyjay was trying hard to fix a spot on the Grammy show for Sarkodie.

Sometime in October 2019, Kalyjay tweeted at an Academy member, Richardine Bartee, asking when they intend to feature Sarkodie.

KalyJay: Will you be working with Sarkodie any time soon?

Richardine Bartee: ‘I can’t determine that. That’s Sarkodie’s call’
