In a recent interview on BBC Radio 1Xtra, the multiple award-winning record producer hinted that Black Sherif reminds him of the energy he had in his hay days when he started doing music.
He revealed that he was first exposed to Black Sherif's music when a close friend from Mali called Bako played Black Sherif's hit song 'Second Sermon' when they were in New York City.
He stated that what made him fall in love with Blacko was how he told his story through his songs and how it manifests in his voice.
