Black Sherif, a gifted artist, was the lone act from Ghana to steal the show at the 2023 Headies Awards, which were held over the weekend in the United States of America (USA).

Celebrating African Renaissance served as the topic for the 16th annual Headies Awards, which honor outstanding accomplishments in the Nigerian music business.

Numerous A-list performers who were presented with honors were there that evening. But Black Sherif’s outstanding victory was the star of the show.

The West African Artiste of the Year award went to Black Sherif, better known by his stage name Blacko.
