Ghanaian singer-songwriter and rapper Black Sherif has revealed what he made of US Vice President Kamala Harris' speech when she met him and other Ghanaian creatives this week.

Blacko said he heard one word throughout the address by Ms Harris.

“Inspiring, inspiring, inspiring,” he said. “And I get [understand] it.”

“When I travel outside, everything I see, even how people interact with me, I get inspired by it,” he explained.

He said as he was "watching" and listening to Madam Harris, he was “enjoying.”

This, he explained, is because “everywhere I go, I try to live in the moment.”

“Pree [pay attention] to everything, whatever is going [on] around,” he noted. “Everybody’s actions, how they move and all.”

The time spent with Kamala Harris was “a proper one. I loved it.”
