A few days ago, a Kumasi-based host DJ Slim made some revelation about the current relationship between artist Black Sherif and his manager Madonna. He highlighted the alleged feud describing Black Sherif as ungratful.
In a new report, a member from the camp of Chevas called Kwaku Kristo has given a breakdown on Peace FM’s Entertainment Review about the money involved in the music video of Black Sherif and Nigerian artist Burna Boy.
According to Kristo Kwaku, the money they spent on the music video between Black Sherif and Nigerian artist Burna Boy all amounted to $40,000. He disclosed that the video cost $32,000 while the outfit of Burna Boy cost $8,000.
“His video with Burna Boy was $32,000. Empire has advanced $32,000. And then Burna Boy’s outfit for the video was $8,000. That makes it $40,000” Kristo said after Kwasi Aboagye, host of the show had read a part of the contract between Black Sherif and Empire which stated that “Empire agrees to spend according to an Empire approved budget of $50,000 to promote and market the content”.
Kristo Kwaku disclosed that the $40,000 that went into the music video is a debt that needed to be paid by Black Sherif because he signed a contract with Empire Entertainment without the approval of Chavis.
Kwaku Kristo asseverated that his boss, Chavis, has a five-year contract with Black Sherif. However, the musician has failed to respect the agreement.
“We were approached by Black Sherif and his crew that they needed someone to invest in them and manage them. He asked them what they needed, they listed them and he made provisions for them. My boss signed a contract with them on 18th August 2021. The contract was for five years”, Kwaku Kristo said in Twi.
Giving details of the contract, Kristo said
“We signed a contract to market his product so we get our investment back. Empire brought a deal, my boss perused it but was not happy about the content. Later, we realized that Black Sherif had gone behind us to sign the contract and that was the beginning of the brouhaha.”
Meanwhile, Skirth Madonna, the manager of Black Sherif has refuted Kwaku Kristo’s claims, describing them as lies. Chavis, according to Kristo is considering a lawsuit.
