Yesterday, November 13, Black Sherif released a dance video for his latest single, Rebel Music. The song once again underscores the Ghanaian singer’s talent for crafting music that doesn’t just captivate listeners but crosses national borders.
Although Black Sherif is Ghanaian, his music resonates with a broad fan base across Africa and beyond, thanks to his distinctive sound, vibrant energy, and thought-provoking lyrics.
The video is a dynamic showcase of his energy, featuring Black Sherif executing smooth, rhythmic moves reminiscent of the pop legend Michael Jackson. Alongside two supporting dancers, he brings the song’s intense lyrics to life, embodying its powerful spirit.
From his fierce gaze to his sleek black leather outfit, and the moody atmosphere of the set, every detail in the video amplifies the track’s charged aura.
Rebel Music is a thrilling track, driven by a hard-hitting beat, a sonorous intro, and rich background vocals, with a chorus that Black Sherif delivers in his signature passionate style. The lyrics, like in much of his work, weave together English, Pidgin, and Twi–his native Ghanaian language. Even if you don’t speak Twi, you’ll likely find yourself humming along, nodding, and fully immersed in the vibe of the song.
The song’s striking cover art exudes a powerful aura, drawing one’s attention and holding it as it silently but effortlessly tells the song’s story.
With Rebel Music, Black Sherif reaffirms his status as a boundary-pushing artist who crafts music for the world.
