BET has announced the full list of nominees for the 2019 BET Awards and Nigerian musicians such as Mr Eazi, Burna Boy, Teni, South African rapper AKA and two other musicians from France grabbed a spot in the category, ‘Best International Act’.
As it happened in 2018, Ghanaian top musicians such as Shatta Wale, Sarkodie, Stonebwoy has been snubbed once again ─ apparently, over their little influence at the international level.
Shatta Wale who bragged about receiving an email from BET somewhere in 2018 is currently been trolled on social media after his name was missing in the category, ‘Best International Act’.
