Leader of the Asuoden Empire, Pope Skinny, says he has rebranded, changing his name from ‘Pope Skinny’ to ‘Asuoden God’.
He indicated that the name change came after he had an interaction with God and Jesus Christ.
“God spoke to me and asked me to change my name. I’m no longer Pope Skinny. I am now Asuoden God,” he revealed.
Pope further added that, his new name, which translates to the English language as ‘Stubborn God’ best describes who he is as a musician as compared to his old name.
However, showbiz critics have on the other hand shown massive support to the rapper and encouraged his initiative to rebrand himself to Ghanaians.
Pope Skinny is a close friend of dancehall artiste, Shatta Wale, this has caused many to think the Shatta Movement boss has negatively influenced the former but he refuted these claims. According to him, his actions are of will, adding that “Shatta has nothing to do with it.”
