Sheriff Menjoy, better known as IAmYungReef, is an African American rapper, singer, and songwriter blending Afropop and pop influences into a sound that resonates worldwide. Born in Montserrado County, Monrovia, Liberia, on December 7, 1996, and raised in Philadelphia for 28 years, music has always been his truest form of expression. From his teenage years, he found power in connecting emotionally and physically with fans, making music more than just a career—it’s his purpose.
His journey has been marked by dedication and major milestones, from composing and performing his own music to landing features in publications like Genz Hip Hop, Maxed Hip Hop, No Fortune, Clout Magazine, and Prove Magazine—all made possible through his collaboration with Dillon Cash and Swaggertown Records. After three and a half years of development, he took a bold step in signing an independent management deal with Swaggertown, proving his commitment to his craft.
IAmYungReef’s music creates deep emotional connections with listeners, turning every track into an unforgettable experience. His approach to collaboration is rooted in trust and open communication, ensuring every project aligns with his vision. Though he started independently, his time with Swaggertown Records has elevated his artistry, and he’s now focused on expanding his reach.
Challenges like self-trust, maintaining his talent, and finding inspiration have only fueled his determination. By learning from others in the industry, he continues to push himself creatively. Engaging with fans on social media is a key part of his strategy, using platforms to interact, share behind-the-scenes content, and build a loyal community.
Up next, IAmYungReef is set to drop his highly anticipated single, I Mean Business featuring FIS BANGA, solidifying his spot as an artist to watch. With his passion, drive, and undeniable talent, he’s just getting started.
