7. Black Sherif

Black Sherif, the breakout star of Ghana’s music scene, has gained significant attention in a short amount of time with his raw, emotionally charged lyrics and fusion of Afrobeat, trap, and reggae influences. His track “Second Sermon” propelled him into international fame, with millions of streams and widespread recognition.

However, his rapid rise to stardom has also generated some whispers about the price he may have had to pay for his success. Black Sherif’s powerful, almost prophetic lyrics touch on themes of struggle, survival, and loss, but some have speculated that his meteoric rise could have come with spiritual or supernatural costs.

While Black Sherif himself hasn’t publicly addressed these rumors, his sudden success amidst personal hardship has led many to wonder whether he may have had to align with powerful figures or make certain sacrifices to remain on top.
