Edem Faces Backlash After Dismissive Response to Fan’s Financial Plea During Instagram Live

Ghanaian rapper Edem is facing significant backlash following a recent Instagram Live session where he rejected a fan’s request for financial assistance.

During the live stream, a fan asked Edem for GHC 2,000 to help with rent, to which he responded dismissively, suggesting the fan “go back to your village” instead.

This interaction sparked mixed reactions online, with many fans expressing disappointment over his lack of empathy and support for those in need.

Some defended Edem, arguing that celebrities are not obligated to fulfill such requests. The incident has ignited discussions about the responsibilities of public figures towards their fans and the expectations placed upon them in times of financial hardship
