Ghanaian musician Black Sherif has dismissed allegations that fake numbers drive his success in the music industry.
Speaking in an interview with Graphic Showbiz, the “Where Dem Boys” hitmaker described such claims as unfair and absurd, emphasising that his accomplishments are not the result of manipulation or dishonesty.
Black Sherif attributed his rise to stardom to years of hard work, unwavering dedication, and a genuine passion for music.
“Honestly, that’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. My success is 100 per cent organic. I put my blood, sweat and tears into every note, every lyric and every performance,” he said.
He explained that he has taken time to grow his fanbase and has never relied on shortcuts or fake methods to gain attention.
“I’ve built my audience through hard work, consistency and authenticity and that’s what’s driving my growth, not some cheap shortcut,” he stated.
Black Sherif also added that the connection people feel with his songs comes from the honesty and emotion he puts into them.
“My music speaks for itself. If people are connecting with my songs, it’s because I’ve poured my heart and soul into something real,” he said.
The “Where Dem Boys” hitmaker addressed claims that he might be using fake streams to boost his numbers on music platforms. He rejected the idea and defended his work ethic.
“Anyone who thinks I buy fake streams doesn’t know the first thing about my work ethic or my passion for music,” he stated.
