– –<\/span> In a new interview he granted to the media recently which saw him contrasting African musicians to their American counterparts, the commercially successful American singer of Senegalese descent said Black Sherif reminds him so much of himself when he sprouted up in the game. <\/p>\n \u201cBlack Sherif\u00a0is a monster. He reminds me so much of myself,\u201d he repeated his BBC Radio 1Xtra sentiments to his host British TV personality Zeze Millz.<\/p>\n The 49-year-old confirmed he was at the 2022 of Black Origin (MOBO) Awards where Sherif performed just before Nigeria\u2019s Fireboy. Black Sherif\u00a0\u201cis a beast!\u201d he praised again, recalling the night with Zeze Millz.<\/p>\n – –<\/span> On how a 20-year-old wields so much charisma and stage presence, Akon offered a simple explanation.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s African,\u201d he shrugged to dramatise. We\u2019re a little different when it comes to stage presence,\u201d he beamed with pride.

Look at all these YouTube clips of all these kids from Uganda and how they\u2019ll be\u2026,\u201d he tried to mimick the viral dance routines. \u201cThese kids are performers!\u201d<\/p>\n For \u201cus\u201d Africans, \u201cit comes naturally,\u201d he touted. \u201cWatching the kids from Africa [it\u2019s clear] that it\u2019s in their blood. Performance is like second nature for us,\u201d the record producer and singer-songwriter stressed. \u201cSo I wasn\u2019t suprised at all to see Black Sherif [on the MOBO stage, where] he was just a beast.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAnd Fireboy has his own other type of swag that comes with him,\u201d he nodded slightly.<\/p>\n \u201cYou can tell he\u2019s like the new generation African talent.\u201d Akon was a friend and collaborator with Michael Jackson.
