You have just ended your music career- Netizens troll King Paluta after accepting Bawumia’s request
Rapper King Paluta has become the subject of scorn and criticism on social media after accepting an invitation to meet with Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia.
The encounter sparked outrage among Natizens, who accused Paluta of betraying the values he once espoused in his music. In his past lyrics, Paluta has been outspoken about social and political issues, often criticizing the government for its failures.
However, the rapper’s recent decision to meet with Bawumia, a prominent figure in the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), has been seen as a sell-out. Natizens have expressed disappointment and frustration, claiming that Paluta has compromised his integrity for financial gain.
‘It’s sad to see how easy it is for some people to sell their souls for money,’ wrote one user on Twitter. ‘King Paluta used to be a voice for the voiceless, but now he’s just another puppet.’
Another user commented, ‘What a shame. Paluta was supposed to be a role model for young people, but he’s shown that he’s nothing more than a hypocrite.’
Paluta has yet to respond to the backlash, but the incident has cast a shadow over his reputation. Some fans have even vowed to stop listening to his music, while others have called for a boycott of his upcoming shows.
The controversy surrounding Paluta’s meeting with Bawumia highlights the challenges faced by artists who speak out against injustice. In a society where poverty and corruption are rampant, the temptation to compromise one’s values for financial security can be overwhelming.
However, the public’s reaction to Paluta’s decision demonstrates that the people of Ghana still have high expectations for their artists. They demand that those who speak for the masses remain steadfast in their convictions and resist the allure of power and greed.
