“2024 BET Awards Nominees Released: Ghana Misses Out on Nominations”

Ghana’s absence from the 2024 BET Awards nominations was notable, contrasting with Black Sherif’s previous triumph in the Best International Flow category at the BET Hip Hop Awards in 2023. In contrast, seven Nigerian artists clinched nominations, with Ayra Starr leading the pack with three nods, closely followed by Burna Boy and Tems with two each. Tyla, a South African singer, garnered the most African artist nominations with four.

Drake dominated the overall nominations with seven nods, trailed closely by Nicki Minaj with six. The extensive list encompasses various categories, demonstrating the rich diversity of talent within the music industry.

While Ghana may have missed out on nominations this year, the representation of African artists across different categories underscores the continent’s growing influence and presence on the global music stage. The BET Awards continue to serve as a platform for celebrating and recognizing excellence in music, highlighting the contributions of artists from diverse backgrounds and regions.
