The video has gained a lot of attention on social media. Many people praised the mother-son bond and said they were happy to see Obaapa Christy enjoying time with her son. Others focused on how handsome her son looked and dropped kind comments under the post.

The song they were singing, Soma, is part of Black Sherif’s latest album titled Iron Boy. The album was released on April 3, 2025, and has received strong reviews from fans and music critics. It has 15 songs and talks about real-life struggles, perseverance, and rising above challenges.

The Iron Boy album features only two guest artists—Nigerian singers Fireboy DML and Seyi Vibez. The production team includes AR Beats, Samsney, Joker Nharnah, and several others. Black Sherif promoted the album heavily on social media before its release, posting tracklists, snippets, and behind-the-scenes content.

Tracks like The Victory Song, Top of the Morning, and Where Them Boyz have also made waves like Soma. In addition to his musical achievements, Black Sherif has been nominated for the Best International Act at the 2025 BET Awards.

This nomination marks a significant milestone in his career, as he is the only Ghanaian artist recognised in this category for the year.
