In the words of famed beatmaker Wei Ye Oteng, Black Sherif has no contender as far as the Best New Artiste is concerned as regards the forthcoming Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMAs).
Making his point on Simply Showbiz, Oteng stated that the young man’s incredible work rate in the year under review definitely puts him in a pole position to grab the award at the expense of his contenders.
“I will not bypass Black Sherif for anything. Because seriously, from nowhere, Black Sherif’s song was like a wildfire being fueled consistently to the point of having a collaboration, which he never initiated.
“You have the First Sermon, which never took it lightly with the people, pierced everybody like a sharp arrow, and then continued with the Second Sermon, which raised the First Sermon’s bar and caught the attention of the international scene and had everybody,” he told host Akorfa.
Oteng added that Black Sherif’s vibrancy on the streets, consistency, and exposure to the international market are the key elements that would make him win the Best New Artiste easily.
“I think Black Sherif I would not pass him for anybody because of the consistency. Even though he missed out on a few things here and there that I don’t want to say, his consistency with the songs has been backed by videos.
“Having the international market come in, and the collaboration with Burna Boy, trust me, I don’t know what will make me pass him for anything. He is my to-go guy. And every soul on the streets can give you word for word,” Wei Y3 Oteng asserted.
