‘I have not entered my collaborative phase yet’ – Black Sherif states
Ghanaian music star Black Sherif has revealed that his biggest collaborative era is yet to come.
Speaking in a September 17, 2025, interview with Dutch brand outlet Patta, he explained that most of his international features with artistes like Burna Boy, Vic Mensa, and Fireboy DML were built from personal relationships, not structured plans.
“Funny enough, I don’t think I’ve fully entered my collaborative phase yet. Most of the songs I’ve done came from relationships. Someone sent me a track, and I vibed with it. But after this album, I want to travel, sit with artists, connect spiritually, and create. To me, music is spiritual. A perfect collaboration is when everyone’s spirit aligns on a track. That’s the kind of collab I’m chasing,” he said.
Speaking about his Iron Boy album, Black Sherif described it as his most personal work to date, drawing inspiration from his real-life struggles.
“It’s more elevated. Some of the beliefs I had two or three years ago, I am challenging them now. I have found new ways to be personal and vulnerable. There’s a song called One that talks about something that happened to my father last year that changed everything in my family. It’s a spiritual album. You’ll have to listen to it to feel what I’m saying,” he added.
