Popular Ghanaian musician Black Sherif has unveiled the cover art and trailer for his upcoming album Iron Boy, set for release on April 3, 2025.
The announcement has sparked excitement among fans, with many analysing the visuals for clues about the album’s themes.
The trailer, which has a dark and mysterious aesthetic, showed Black Sherif dressed as an alien. The gothic imagery and moody setting have led many to believe that there is a deeper meaning behind the trailer.
Ahead of Iron Boy, Black Sherif released two singles that gained massive attention. His first song of 2025, Lord I’m Amazed, dropped on January 9, his 23rd birthday. The song debuted on the UK Afrobeats Chart, ranking alongside major artists like Davido and YG Marley.
On January 30, he followed up with So It Goes, featuring Nigerian singer Fireboy DML. The song, which explores themes of love, was accompanied by a visually appealing music video, further boosting its popularity.
Black Sherif’s debut album, The Villain I Never Was, peaked at #12 on the Billboard World Albums Chart in 2022. This achievement placed him among top Ghanaian artistes like Stonebwoy, Shatta Wale, and Amaarae. Fans expect Iron Boy to reach similar heights, if not surpass them.
The album’s title suggests a focus on strength and endurance, continuing the themes of his previous work.
