"He is the new generation of highlife musicians,
he is the 8th generation I say if I want to put him
there. We are the 7th generation and he is the
beginning of the 8th because if you listen to his
rhythm and you listen to that delivery and the
vocals, nothing could have been inspired about
highlife music. Looking at his 'Konongo Zongo'
the song is purely highlife".
According to Kwabena Kwabena, he blames the media for all that, because they started the whole thing, he further added that, when Black sherif first came to the limelight, the songs he used to produce were all highlife songs and not hip-hop.
"It is you guys who have caused this, you
caused this, why, if you listen to the tracks the
guy released even before his album, it was
nothing hip hop. Does he do stuff like Sarkodie
does, let listen to a song like Country side', was
it two hip hop artists performing".
