The Rebel Music hitmaker recently travelled to Berekum in the Bono Region of Ghana as the headline artiste for the Black Sherif Live In Berekum event at Golden City Park.
The event marked Black Sherif's second high-profile music concert, following the successful conclusion of the 2024 edition of his annual Zaama Disco concert at the Untamed Empire creative studio and hub in Accra on Saturday, December 21, 2024.
Numerous partygoers in Berekum trooped to the event venue to glimpse the 2023 BET Best International Flow award recipient, who delivered an energetic performance and gave the huge crowd a memorable experience.
The music event was almost marred by the actions of an overly enthusiastic fan, who threatened to derail the concert's success.
Black Sherif fumes and halts music performance
During Black Sherif's performance of his verse on DJ Breezy's 2022 smash hit, Abonten, which also features Mugeez, Stonebwoy and Kwesi Arthur on stage, a fan threw a lighter at him, which hit him in the face.
The fan's action angered the Kilos Milos hitmaker, who halted his music performance and roamed around the stage, peeking his eyes through the crowd to search for the culprit.
Black Sherif fumed as he dared the individual to mount the stage and face him for a physical confrontation.
Despite several calls, the fan failed to show him or herself, leaving Black Sherif frustrated about the situation while other audience members pleaded with him to ignore the individual.
Black Sherif later resumed his musical performance with the Oil In My Head song from his 2022 debut album, The Villain I Never Was, before shooting confetti at the massive crowd.
Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh on Black Sherif's incident
In a conversation with YEN.com.gh, entertainment analyst Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh shared his thoughts on Black Sherif's actions at the Berekum concert.
He said:
"I believe Black Sherif had every right to be angry, as it wasn’t a nice gesture. It might have been a mistake by the person, but for things like these, we can’t predict how people will react. Despite obviously being angry, his manner of addressing the situation also gave it a jovial feel, and it didn’t escalate to anything worse."
