"There's nothing wrong with it": Paluta addresses Makoma lyrics termed indecent

**King Paluta Responds to Claims About His Song "Makoma"**

King Paluta recently addressed claims that his hit song "Makoma" contains profanity. Some believe this is why it was not nominated for a TGMA award.

In a video, he clarified that certain lyrics were misinterpreted. He insisted the song does not violate any ethical or moral standards.

"Makoma" was one of Ghana’s biggest songs in 2024, dominating airwaves and social media. Despite its popularity, it was snubbed in the Most Popular Song of the Year category at the 2025 Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMAs). This sparked debate among fans and industry insiders.

Paluta petitioned the TGMA board regarding the snub. In a letter dated March 18, 2025, he demanded an explanation. He stated that "Makoma" was properly submitted and deserved recognition.

The rapper noted that "Makoma" was a fan favorite and one of the most played songs in Ghana last year. He submitted it for four categories: Most Popular Song of the Year, Record of the Year, Hiplife Song of the Year, and Songwriter of the Year. However, it received no nominations.

Since then, King Paluta and his team have expressed their willingness to engage with the TGMA board to resolve this issue.

**Reactions from Ghanaians**

Social media users shared their reactions to King Paluta's explanation. One user commented that similar treatment happened to another artist, Guru. Another suggested that people from Kumasi are often overlooked.

Others expressed support for King Paluta and criticized the awards process. Many fans emphasized their love for his music despite these setbacks.
