Ghanaian rapper Medikal has praised fellow musician Black Sherif for winning the Artist of the Year award at the Telecel Ghana music awards, describing the recognition as well deserved.
Speaking on Onua Showtime on Sunday, Medikal explained that Black Sherif’s music reflects struggle, hard work and street life, which many people can relate to.
According to him, Black Sherif, popularly known as “Blacko,” earned the award because his songs connect strongly with the public.
“Obviously, if you listen to Blacko’s songs from day one, you will see that the content and lyrics are all about struggle and making it in life,” he stated.
He noted that Black Sherif’s journey from the streets to success makes his achievement inspiring to many young people.
Medikal added that he would have been happy if he had won the award himself, but he was equally happy for Black Sherif because he deserved it.
The rapper explained that his reaction during the awards event, where he nodded and applauded after the announcement, was a genuine show of support for his colleague.
He stressed that popular street songs often influence major award decisions, especially when people from different backgrounds sing and embrace the music.
According to him, Black Sherif’s hit songs became widely accepted by children, adults and even people at social gatherings and funerals, showing the level of influence he has gained.
“The street controls the song,” Medikal remarked, adding that an artiste who dominates the streets has a strong chance of winning major awards.
He further noted that he was not surprised by Black Sherif’s victory because every category Medikal himself was nominated in was highly competitive.
