The song, which was produced by Sherif’s longstanding partner SamSney with additional production from Louddaaa, provides a potent sneak peek into his much awaited sophomore album, IRON BOY, which is scheduled for release early this year. “So It Goes,” which features two of the scene’s most dynamic and potent vocalists, encapsulates Black Sherif’s unwavering quest for a better existence. In order to honor and make his family proud, Fireboy DML simultaneously considers the highs and lows of the hustle.
The ascent of Black Sherif has been nothing short of spectacular. He was born in Ghana’s Ashanti area and has amassed a devoted global fan base because to his unconventional voice and intensely intimate songs. With songs like “Money” and “Destiny,” which went viral in the Ghanaian music scene, Sherif initially became well-known in 2020. An important turning point was his Sermon freestyle series, which prepared the ground for his smash song “Kwaku the Traveller.”
With over a million TikTok creations and the title of most Shazamed tune globally, the song became an international sensation. Sherif continues to push boundaries through his collaborations with international heavyweights like Burna Boy, Vic Mensa, and Darkoo. He has received recognition for this, including a nomination for Best International Flow at the 2022 BET Hip Hop Awards. “So It Goes” represents yet another significant event, since it unites two of the most talented musicians in West Africa.
Fireboy DML, who is well-known for his smooth vocals and number-one singles, adds a refined, heartfelt performance to Sherif’s raw energy, making this song a landmark in both artists’ careers. Fireboy DML, best known for songs like “Peru” with Ed Sheeran and “Vibration,” is preparing for a significant milestone in his career: a much-anticipated headline performance at the storied Royal Albert Hall in April.
