In this powerful episode of BET Talks, Ghana’s breakout star Black Sherif sits down for a raw and unfiltered conversation you won’t forget. From a town of Konongo to world tours, Sherif opens up about his journey, the lies he told his parents to chase his dream, and the soul behind his signature sound.

We dive deep into what it means to represent Ghana on a global stage, why every lyric he writes carries weight, and how his music became a voice for the unheard. Whether he’s breaking down the story behind “So It Goes” or sharing why he believes Black Americans should come home to Africa — this is Sherif at his most honest, vulnerable, and visionary.

He’s not trying to copy anyone. He’s creating a lane all his own.

This isn’t just music — it’s rebel art with purpose.
