**Edem Responds to Sarkodie Snub at Birthday Party**

Edem recently spoke about an alleged snub from Sarkodie. This incident occurred at Richard Nii-Armah Quaye's 40th birthday celebration on March 22, 2025.

In an interview with Jay Foley on 3 Music's Culture Daily, Edem explained the situation. He said the camera angle made the incident look misleading. It did not capture everything that happened between him and Sarkodie's team.

Edem mentioned he was pushed by someone behind him while holding champagne. He understood the security protocols in place for Sarkodie's entrance. "I am a professional artist," he stated, acknowledging the need for order during performances.

He added that some people used the video to create negativity. Edem clarified he did not intentionally ignore Sarkodie; he was focused on his work. He expressed that he wasn't bothered by the drama created around him.

After his performance, Sarkodie approached Edem, and they spoke amicably. Both artists have decided not to let public opinions affect them anymore.

Social media reactions varied after Edem's comments about the incident. Some users accused him of lying or trying to talk to Sarkodie during his entrance. Others suggested that Edem should recognize his status as a big artist and choose appropriate times for greetings.

Earlier reports indicated that security prevented Edem from shaking hands with Sarkodie during the event. The video of this moment sparked mixed reactions online as well.
