Beat producer and chief executive officer of Drum Lyne Music facility Justice Oteng well known as Wei Ye Oteng says sensational artist Black Sherif isn’t that special.
According to the best producer, the songs of Black Sherif tops music charts because people rush to listen out of curiosity but not because he does anything extraordinary.
Wei Ye Oteng however emphasized that Black Sherif despite the fact that Black Sherif is good and produces good music, is not doing anything new in regard to his music career.
Wei Ye Oteng made this comment in regard to the comment Reggie Rockstone made asking Blacko to curve a name for his music genre.
Oteng said: “Black Sherif is good. I mean, the likes of Kwadee were unique just like Black Sherif is, but whichever sound they had, or playing around with, was already in there. So we appreciate that. Now, if you have an affiliation with Burna Boy just upon releasing two songs into the mainstream, the whole world would want to listen to you”.
“The whole world would want to know what is under your sleeve, not because they believe that you are extremely the “ish” (good), but they know that you are positive and you are on the path to greatness and that you need support. So, everything that you do, based on the type of affiliation and have, they troop in to come and listen and then to make their own judgment”.
Wei Ye Oteng however admitted that Black Sherif is doing well and producing good music.
“For the truth, I think this guy is doing very well, but let’s not lift him beyond where he is supposed to be. If we do that and complacency sets in, we will kill him before his time”.
“He has a good album, but trust me, a lot of these streams are out of curiosity and affiliation with the choice of brands that he has associated himself with. And we shouldn’t forget, he is on one of the biggest labels that are well endowed to reach out to any place in the world that they want to,” Wei Ye Oteng insisted.
