Popular Ghanaian artist Black Sherif says he doesn’t focus on women or sexual content in his music because he believes there are more important things to talk about.
In a recent interview, Black Sherif—known for his deep, emotional lyrics and raw storytelling—explained that his music is inspired by the real struggles of life, not flashy lifestyles or sensual themes.
“I don’t talk about women or sex in my songs because I have more serious issues to address,” he said.
“I talk about pain, survival, hustle, and the emotions that come with growing up and trying to make it.”
The award-winning musician, famous for songs like “Second Sermon” and “Kwaku the Traveller,” added that he wants his music to connect with people going through tough times, especially the youth.
He also emphasized that his songs reflect his personal experiences, not just entertainment. “When I’m in the studio, I pour out my truth. I’m not trying to fit in or sound like anyone else,” he added.

While many artists chase trends and chart-topping formulas, Black Sherif is choosing authenticity over popularity. And fans are responding — his global fanbase continues to grow, drawn to his raw lyrics and real-life energy.
