Becoming one of West Africa’s fastest-rising new talents was always in Black Sherif’s destiny. Born and raised in the Ghanaian community of Konongo, Sherif imbues his real-life experiences of poverty into his melodic raps, which connect with listeners on an international level.

His 2020 hit single “Money” awarded Black Sherif mainstream attention and a co-sign from fellow Ghanaian rap legend Sarkodie. Since then, he’s gone on to drop prolific hits such as “First Sermon,” “Second Sermon,” and “Ankonam,” and amass over 22 million streams on Audiomack.

For the latest episode of Afroboss Conversations with DJ Edu & Friends, Black Sherif sits down with our Audiomack Ambassador to break down his rapid rise in the Ghanaian music scene, the friction and controversy he faced in his community, and more.
