Black Sherif

"I do see myself as a preacher for the streets. That’s where I’m from. I don’t only talk about the struggles, I also talk about the beauty of it. It’s not always negative."

"Everything I make, I want to make it evergreen and put in my pain, my all. That’s what I believe is art."

"Success is really a challenge more than an honor, because you don’t want to succeed and lose interest in what made you succeed...This success means maintaining it, or growing it. The real beauty is not in the results, it’s in whatever contributed to the success; the people that helped you, or the habits that got you there. The paper, the money, they’re bonuses, man."
