    “Black Sherif Will Be Ghana’s First Grammy Winner” – Derrick Manny

    Derrick Manny Predicts Black Sherif as Ghana’s First Grammy Winner

    In a bold and passionate declaration, Ghanaian award-winning entertainment pundit and blogger, Derrick Manny Everywhere, has predicted that Black Sherif will become the first Ghanaian musician to win a Grammy award.

    “Black Sherif will be the first Ghanaian musician to win a Grammy,” Derrick confidently stated. “Looking at his musical journey and how far he has come, when you listen to his songs, you can tell this is real music.”

    The Rise of a Global Star

    Hailing from Konongo-Zongo in Ghana’s Ashanti Region, Mohammed Ismail Sherif Kwaku Frimpong — known worldwide as Black Sherif or Blacko — has redefined what it means to be a modern African artist. Bursting onto the scene with “First Sermon” and “Second Sermon” in 2021, his gritty, heartfelt lyrics and genre-blending style caught the world’s attention.

    His breakthrough came when Nigerian Grammy-winner Burna Boy jumped on the remix of “Second Sermon,” followed by the viral anthem “Kwaku the Traveller” in 2022, which topped charts in both Ghana and Nigeria.

    Global Impact and Acclaim

    Black Sherif’s debut album, The Villain I Never Was, debuted at number 12 on the Billboard World Albums Chart. His 2025 follow-up, Iron Boy, has taken his artistry to new heights, entering top charts including Apple Music USA and Billboard’s World Albums.

    A standout track from Iron Boy, titled “Sacrifice”, has become an anthem of resilience, resonating deeply with fans. The track’s haunting chorus and raw emotional delivery have made it one of the most talked-about songs in recent memory, marking a new level of lyrical maturity and international appeal.

    Accolades and Milestones

    Black Sherif’s influence continues to soar with numerous accolades under his belt, including:

    2023 BET Hip Hop Awards – Best International Flow

    2023 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards – Artist of the Year

    2023 Headies Awards (Nigeria) – West African Artiste of the Year

    2025 BET Awards – Nominated: Best International Act

    He also made history as the first Ghanaian artist to perform at the UK’s Wireless Festival, with further appearances at Afro Nation, the MOBO Awards, and other major global festivals.

    Derrick Manny’s Bold Faith

    Derrick Manny Everywhere has long been an outspoken advocate for Ghanaian talent, and his confidence in Black Sherif’s Grammy potential is rooted in years of industry observation.

    “Black Sherif’s sound is not just Ghanaian — it’s global. His voice, message, and rhythm resonate with a universal audience. If anyone from Ghana is poised to bring home a Grammy, it’s Blacko,” Derrick emphasized.

    More Than Music

    Black Sherif represents more than musical success — he embodies a generation’s story. His lyrics speak of pain, perseverance, ambition, and triumph, striking a chord with listeners across Africa and the diaspora.

    From humble beginnings to global charts, Black Sherif’s journey is a testament to what’s possible when raw talent meets relentless passion.

    With over 500 million streams on Boomplay, a growing international fanbase, and unmatched momentum, Black Sherif stands on the brink of history. If Derrick Manny’s prediction proves true, it will mark not only a personal victory for Black Sherif, but a turning point for Ghana’s place on the world music stage.

  • ‘Gospel Music Must Be Christ-Centered, Not Just Business’ –Frimpomaa Declares

    ‘Gospel Music Must Be Christ-Centered, Not Just Business’ –Frimpomaa Declares

    Ghanaian gospel sensation, Jocelyn Darko, popularly known as Frimpomaa, has sent shockwaves through the gospel music industry with her bold declaration that gospel music must be focused on Christ and not merely treated as a business venture.

    Speaking on X-Zone with Afia Owusu on Wednesday, April 2, 2025, Frimpomaa passionately emphasized that the primary purpose of gospel music is to win souls for Christ, not just to generate income. The conversation arose when the host, Afia Owusu, asked the songtress behind MEDAWASE song about the perception among Ghanaians that gospel music is more of a charitable endeavor than a profit-driven industry.

    Frimpomaa, known for her unwavering faith and soulful music, did not hold back. She stressed that while gospel musicians invest significant time, effort, and financial resources into their craft, the core message of gospel music must remain Christ-centered. However, she acknowledged that when done correctly, gospel music can yield financial returns without compromising its spiritual essence.

    “In everything we do, Christ must be at the center. We don’t just do gospel music for money. It’s about touching lives and winning souls. That is the mission. However, if you put in the right effort and maintain the focus on God, the business aspect will naturally follow,” she stated.

    Her statement has since sparked a debate among fans and industry players, reigniting conversations about the balance between ministry and monetization in the gospel music space.

    Currently, Frimpomaa is on a media tour promoting her latest single, Medawase. The song, which is already making waves, is a heartfelt thanksgiving anthem, and she is urging all Ghanaians and gospel lovers worldwide to stream it on all digital platforms.

    With her powerful message and soul-stirring vocals, Frimpomaa continues to cement her place as one of Ghana’s most inspiring gospel artistes. As her latest single gains traction, her message remains clear—gospel music is, first and foremost, about Christ, and the mission to spread His word must never be overshadowed by commercial ambitions.
