Sarkodie has admitted that ‘new guy’ Black Sherif is Ghana’s biggest music ambassador in the international market.
Sarkodie made this known during a discussion on 3Music TV while promoting his new album titled ‘Jamz’ which was officially released on November 11, 2022 and features Blacko on a song titled Country Side.
According to Sark, Black Sherif has a refreshing sound which resonates with current trends and has gained him a huge loyal following both locally and internationally.
“Black Sherif is the one who is carrying the mantle now,” he said.
He said he is delighted to see local artists get international recognition. Sarkodie appealed to music lovers to desist from creating tension between artists and rather focus on supporting Ghanaian music.
Jamz comes a year after Sarkodie released his last album, No Pressure, which had popular songs such as Coachella, featuring Tema-based rapper, Kwesi Arthur, and Non-Living Thing, featuring Nigerian afropop artist, Oxlade.
With Jamz, the 2010 Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) Artist of the Year speaks to a bigger ‘global’ audience about his music and life journey from a modest beginning in Ghana to international stardom.
The entire project, has 10 tracks, featuring Oxlade, Kwesi Arthur, Stormzy and other international superstars.
