Reggae artiste and media personality Blakk Rasta has offered high praise for President John Dramani Mahama, describing him as an “angel without wings.”
In an interview with Kafui Dey shared on X on March 16, 2026, Blakk Rasta reflected on the president’s leadership during his second term, admitting that his perspective has evolved.
“Honestly, when I was growing up, I was told angels had wings. This is the first time I’m seeing an angel without wings, and that’s President Mahama,” he said.
The outspoken critic, known for his unfiltered opinions, confessed that he was not always this complimentary.
He acknowledged criticizing Mahama during his first tenure, but explained that his critiques are never personal; they’re meant to build, not destroy.
“I criticised him during his first tenure. Whom haven’t I criticised? People criticise me too.
And they’ve come to realise that I criticise them not to destroy them, but to build them,” he added.
Blakk Rasta noted that Mahama is the kind of leader who listens; whether he chooses to react or let things slide is entirely up to him.
Some agree with the reggae star’s assessment, and others wonder if this signals a shift in his usually critical stance.
