Black Sherif, known in private circles as Mohammed Ismail Sherif, sat down with Dadaboy Ehiz on Apple Music's Africa Now Radio to discuss the title of his debut album and why Burna Boy was the only artist on the project. He said;

I really needed to know myself and explore everything in me before I can start sharing out for people to help me tell my story. Music for me has always been very personal, like a safe haven for me to talk my insecurities, things I can’t say outside, so to get someone on a record with me, I just feel like they can’t help me tell my story.

I want people to know my perspectives on life, to actually brief them on what I know, what I’ve seen, what I believe in and how I’m doing. But soon, collaborations are gonna come, trust me.
