But in a 2022 interview with Graphic Showbiz, the youthful Konongo Zongo guy stated that he constantly pushes himself to perform better.
“Getting to where I am is hard work and consistency. I am always learning from the great musicians to add to my knowledge. The only way I can improve on what I do is to challenge myself and break my own record.
“Whenever I release a song, I should be able to come out with another which is crazier. It is the only way to measure myself to see how I am doing,” he said.
Speaking about his notoriety on a global scale, Black Sherif attributed his success to perseverance and hard work.
“It is a good feeling to have the whole world following you but it has not been easy coming thus far. People think Black Sherif just became Black Sherif overnight but that is not so. It has been hard work, writing good music and doing me and I am glad all of that over the years are now paying off,” he said.
