Speaking in an interview with Zion Felix on this Uncut show, Archipalago claimed that the musician struggled to match the notes and streams that Sherif took.
Palago said this is the result of the benefit of the record label.
According to Archipalago, an artist who is not on a strong record label will never reach the top. He mentioned that the record label Black Sherif works in, “Black Empire” is one of the biggest record labels Hence the popularity of Black Sherif and break through to the international market; making other artists worthless.
With the feat achieved by the ‘Konongo Zongo’ hitmaker, he stated that independent artists will struggle to achieve the same numbers.
Archipalago insists that working with a record label does magic.
