Published

on

Ghana’s music powerhouse, Black Sherif, has once again placed the nation on the global stage with a nomination at the 2025 BET Awards. The hitmaker, known for blending hard-hitting lyrics with a unique fusion of trap, highlife, and drill, has been shortlisted in the prestigious Best International Act category.

This nomination cements Black Sherif’s position as Ghana’s lone representative at this year’s BET Awards — a feat that not only reflects his meteoric rise but also his international appeal.

The “Sacrifice” crooner will be facing off against some of the hottest names from across the globe, including Ayra Starr and Rema from Nigeria, South Africa’s viral sensation Tyla, Swaziland’s dynamic DJ Uncle Waffles, Brazil’s Gabrielly and MC Luanna, France’s Joé Dwèt Filé and SDM, plus the UK’s Basky and Ezra Collective.

This isn’t Black Sherif’s first dance with the BETs. In 2023, he made history by clinching the Best International Flow award at the BET Hip Hop Awards, becoming only the second Ghanaian to win that honor after Sarkodie in 2019.

With a knack for raw storytelling, emotionally charged lyrics, and massive youth appeal, Black Sherif’s journey has been nothing short of phenomenal. His music continues to resonate across borders, earning him a loyal following from Accra to Atlanta.

[VIDEO] Qwame Stika Breaks Silence Over ‘Yahitti’ Dispute with King Paluta

Published

on

Fast-rising music act Qwame Stika has finally broken his silence over the controversy surrounding the hit song Yahitti, originally released by King Paluta. Speaking during a heated interview on Top 103.1 F.M Showbiz with host Londona Niee, Stika revealed that he gave King Paluta the green light to release the song purely out of loyalty and mutual respect.

“I allowed King Paluta to release Yahitti out of loyalty,” he said. “But he broke that bond when he featured Kuami Eugene on the remix without my consent.”

According to Stika, the original track was a collaborative effort, and any major decision regarding its direction or future versions should have involved him. He expressed disappointment that such a critical move featuring a high-profile artist like Kuami Eugene was done behind his back.

“This wasn’t just a song, it was a shared vision. For him to go ahead and make such a big change without even informing me, let alone asking for my input, feels like a betrayal,” he added.

The revelation has sparked debate among fans and industry players alike, with some calling for clearer agreements in collaborations, especially among emerging artists in Ghana’s music scene.

As tensions rise, it remains to be seen whether the two artists will reconcile or if this marks the end of their working relationship.
