Ghanaian music star Black Sherif is not happy about people twisting his words about the role of foreign music in Ghana.

Black Sherif was among some Ghanaian artists advocating for Ghanaians to play more Ghanaian music during the festive season.

The Creative Arts Agency launched a campaign dubbed #PlayGhana to encourage music producers and DJs to prioritise local music.

But online, some took Black Sherif's support for the campaign to mean he wanted to ban foreign music.

The music star hit back at these interpretations online, saying it was a crazy spin in a post online.

"I don’t know where in my speech that says ban foreign music. How crazy can you spin a message that says love your culture and try play local music to your visitors if you wanna see your country creatives break boundaries."

"How do I want foreign music ban in my country while I work with foreign producers and Artistes? But agenda set ah lie? Good luck to everybody."

Black Sherif victorious as court dismisses case from Cruise People

On November 16, an Accra High Court dismissed a lawsuit filed by Cruise People Ltd against Black Sherif.

Cruise People accused the musician of failing to honour an agreement, leading to the cancellation of a concert.

The Cruise People argued that this concert cancellation caused the company to lose money.

The saga began when, on Wednesday, July 19, 2023, Black Sherif was arrested at the Kotoka International Airport.

The company claimed it had paid Black Sherif $20,000 as half payment for his participation in Afro Cruise Jam, a cruise show held in Greece and Turkey in August, but failed to uphold his side of the bargain to make promotional videos.
