Sounds of HASH BLINK

For many young people, music has a way of speaking for them at a time when the world around is changing fast. Born in Liberia, that was the case for Thomas Balu Nmah Sheriff. At that time he was immersed in the Black Album and the Marshall Mathers LP 2, but it wasn’t until a couple of years later when 50 Cent’s hit single, “P.I.M.P” entered his world that he started to realize that others’ music didn’t have to speak for him anymore because he’d realized his own voice. It was then that a young Thomas started to see himself as Hash Blink.

Hash Blink was always a fan of music but didn’t start to see himself as an artist until he was 13 when he began penning his own lyrics. Soon enough he was battling fellow aspiring emcees at school. Then at the tender age of 17, he packed a bag, passport, and a dream and headed to Chicago, IL. Since then he’s released a trio of singles, with plans of dropping two more in 2020;

Like Eminem, Hash Blink often sees himself as an underdog in the hip hop game. While Eminem dealt with being white in Black dominated genre, Hash Blink knows how much hip hop is dominated by the Western World but also like Eminem, he plans on breaking down cultural barriers and thriving. Of the inspiration he found in his youth watching Eminem, he notes, “He gave me hope. Because I figured if this white man could stand the angry crowds then I too could do the same. He was called and told so many things, but he persisted and that is something I want to do.”

Hash Blink has been working hard towards his goals of entering the rap realm and making a name for himself ever since he landed in the US two years ago, and even before that when he was performing back in Liberia. Now he’s working on dropping a pair of new singles as well as putting the final touches on his debut album, due out in 2020.
