Ghanaian musician Shatta Wale has criticised his colleague Black Sherif for his fashion choices.
Shatta Wale criticises Black Sherif's dressing
In a conversation with socialites Efia Odo, Ama Burland and Gisela Amponsah on their Rants, Bants and Confession podcast, Shatta Wale shared that he did not understand Black Sherif's preference for some outfits, even though he was making good strides in terms of fashion.
Comparing the Kilos Milos hitmaker to Nigeria's Asake, the SM Boss said that the latter understood the fashion game and that his outfits are detailed and fit him perfectly, even though they can sometimes be huge.
He also questioned why Black Sherif would purchase his outfits from thrift shops in Kantamanto, Accra.
He said:
"With Black Sherif, they are trying for him, but I don't get some of his outfits. I feel like he is a hip-hop artiste. Why would he dress like that? Because when you look at Asake wearing his diamond chain and big trousers, it suits like everything is detailed. It fits but you will come here too and ask why he would go to Kantamanto to buy his outfits? Why? Your details have to be right."
Shatta Wale noted that artistes should brand themselves well to embrace their personalities. He said he would not look great if he wore bigger outfits that did not complement his body.
The My Level coroner added that an artiste like King Promise has a good sense of fashion and wears outfits that complement his brand.

In a conversation with YEN.com.gh, entertainment analyst Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh shared his thoughts on Shatta Wale's criticisms of Black Sherif's fashion sense.
He said:
"Shatta Wale’s comments about Black Sherif were unfortunate considering he (Shatta Wale) isn't seen as a leader in fashion. It was an unfortunate comment, and a real person doesn't go around discussing other people without any provocation."
