In a remarkable feat, Ghanaian musician Black Sherif has secured his second consecutive BET Hip Hop Awards nomination, solidifying his status as a rising star in the global hip-hop scene. The rapper has been nominated in the prestigious category of Best International Flow, a recognition of his exceptional talent and contributions to the hip-hop genre.
Black Sherif, who gained widespread recognition for his hit track “Kwaku The Traveller,” faces stiff competition from an international lineup of artists. Among the notable contenders in the category are Central Cee from the UK, Gazo from France, J Hus also from the UK, South Africa’s K.O, Major RD from Brazil, and Ninho from France.
Additionally, the category features posthumous recognition for the late South African rapper AKA, who tragically lost his life in February this year. Also representing Africa in the category are Sampa The Great from Zambia and Brazil’s Tasha & Tracie.
What makes Black Sherif’s nomination even more remarkable is that he is the sole Ghanaian artist nominated for a BET Hip Hop Award in 2023. This distinction highlights his growing impact and influence in the global hip-hop community.
This year’s nomination comes after Black Sherif’s debut nomination in the same category in 2022, where he vied for the Best International Flow award but ultimately lost to France’s Benjamin Epps. This year, he’s poised to give it his all once again and potentially secure the coveted title.
The BET Hip Hop Awards, known for celebrating the best talent in the hip-hop world, will feature several other categories, including “Hip-hop artist of the year,” “Song of the year,” “Hip hop album of the year,” and “Best hip-hop video,” among others. The awards ceremony promises to be a star-studded event with nominees and artists from around the globe coming together to celebrate the artistry and influence of hip-hop.
As fans eagerly await the results, the BET Hip Hop Awards serve as a platform to recognize and honor the artists who continue to shape and innovate within the dynamic world of hip-hop. Black Sherif’s nomination is not only a personal achievement but also a testament to the growing recognition of Ghanaian talent on the global stage. The world will be watching as the awards ceremony unfolds, and the winner in the Best International Flow category is revealed.
