This initiative was introduced by the Ghanaian Government to mark 400 years since the first enslaved Africans arrived in Jamestown, Virginia.
Black Sherif’s Second Sermon became popular and had Grammy Winner, Burna Boy who loved and jumped on the song’s remix.
His single “Kwaku The Traveller” topped Ghanaian and Nigerian Apple Music Charts and was the most Shazamed song across all genres by August after its release in March 2022.
