Shiriihan Mohamed Abdulle (born 16 June 1991), known mononymously as Cherrie, is a Swedish singer of Somali descent. She has released three albums and mixtapes, collaborated with international artists such as Stormzy and Kehlani, and in 2019 a short film was released about her life and rise to stardom.[1] Cherrie was raised in Lohja, Finland, where her parents fled from Somalia. At the age of 10 she and her brother, Kalid Abdulle, moved to Rinkeby in Stockholm together with their mother.[2]

Biography

Cherrie was born in Oslo, Norway but grew up in Lojo in Finland. Her parents had fled from Somalia. At the age of ten, she and her younger brother Kalid Abdulle – better known by his stage name K27 [sv] – moved with their mother to Rinkeby in Stockholm.[3][2] She is also a cousin of the rappers Imenella and Yasin.[4][5] In 2013, Cherrie appeared in choruses on 24K's music, which was the starting shot for her music career.

The single "Tabanja" was released in 2015 and gained attention. Her debut album Sherihan was released in April 2016, and many of the songs are about Rinkeby where she had previously lived. The album was produced by Leslie Tay and Amr Badr. At the 2016 Grammis, she was nominated for "Newcomer of the Year" and at the 2017 Grammis she was awarded the Grammis for "Hip Hop/Soul of the Year" and was also nominated for "Album of the Year".[3] In 2017, she received the P3 Guld award in the category "Hip Hop/Soul of the Year".[6] In 2019, she was awarded Stockholm city's honorary award.[7] Cherrie has also collaborated with other artists, including featuring on Abidaz's song "En dag".[3]

On July 6, 2017, she was a summer talk show host on Sveriges Radio.[8] On September 29, 2017, she released the single "163 forever" where the rapper Z.E also participates. 163 refers to the postal code for Rinkeby. On February 28, 2018, a remix of the song came out where Kehlani sings a verse in English.

In the spring of 2018, the SVT Edit series Cherrie – Out of the Darkness premiered on SVT Play, a series where Cherrie wants to highlight the people behind the statistics when media reports on shootings. She wants to inspire others with her music and show a way out of the darkness. In the series, viewers follow the artist on tour but also home to Rinkeby. On May 11, 2018, she released the single "It hits me sometimes", which she followed up with her second album Araweelo on June 15 the same year.

Her third album, Naag Nool, was released on June 4, 2021. That year, she was also one of the participants in the entertainment program Så mycket bättre.[9] During the summer of 2022, she participated as an artist in the Kalasturnén.[10]

In 2023, she participated in SVT's entertainment program Songland.[11]
