Ghanaian rapper and songwriter, Michael Owusu Addo, widely known as Sarkodie, has responded to the claim made by actress Yvonne Nelson that he impregnated her in the past.
The Quest Times reports that Yvonne Nelson made the claim in her recently published book titled “I Am Not Yvonne Nelson,” where she alleged that Sarkodie got her pregnant and pressured her into having an abortion.
According to Yvonne’s account, she had to confront the challenge of an unplanned pregnancy and faced a difficult decision regarding whether to terminate the pregnancy, despite her initial reluctance to do so.
In her book, she described a chapter titled “A Difficult Decision,” detailing the emotional distress she endured when Sarkodie refused to take responsibility for the pregnancy.

Yvonne further claimed that it was Sarkodie who insisted on the abortion because he was involved with another girlfriend at the time and did not want to be accountable for the child. However, Sarkodie has now responded to the pregnancy allegations through a diss track.

In the track, he stated that he had actually encouraged Yvonne Nelson to keep the baby, even though he himself was not prepared to be a father at that point.
According to Sarkodie, the decision to terminate the pregnancy was not made by him, contrary to what Yvonne Nelson claimed in her book. He maintains that it was the actress herself who decided to undergo the abortion.
“So don’t you make it seem like I was the one pushing you for abortion cos that be the only part wey make I vex,” Sarkodie rapped in the first verse of his new song titled ‘Try Me’.
“Nobody is the cause of your bad choices in life, stop the personal attacks,” he sang.
“First few hours your book is doing well. Who is really sure cos nobody can tell? So it’s not because the book is really good but we’re living in a world where negativity sells. I pray you get the healing that you need. Don’t be claiming to be a good girl, you are for the streets.”
