Ghanaian music sensation, Black Sherif, has emerged victorious in the highly competitive Best International Flow category at the 2023 BET Hip Hop Awards. This remarkable achievement underscores the meteoric rise of the talented artist’s career over the past two years.
Black Sherif faced formidable competition from renowned artists hailing from around the world, including AKA (South Africa), Central Cee (UK), Gazo (France), J Hus (UK), K.O (South Africa), Major RD (Brazil), Ninho (France), Sampa The Great (Zambia), and Tasha & Tracie (Brazil). His win at the prestigious awards ceremony, which took place at the Cobb Energy Center in Atlanta, GA, on Tuesday, October 3, 2023, will be broadcast to a global audience on October 10, 2023.
This year’s nomination was especially meaningful for Black Sherif, as it marked his second consecutive nomination in the Best International Flow category. In 2022, he earned his first nomination but narrowly missed the award, which went to Benjamin EPPS.
Black Sherif’s achievement is a testament to his exceptional talent and the international recognition he has garnered in a relatively short period. He becomes the second Ghanaian artist to secure victory in this prestigious category, following in the footsteps of Ghanaian rap icon Sarkodie, who made history by winning the inaugural Best International Flow category in 2019.
The BET Hip Hop Awards promises an unforgettable evening of entertainment, with electrifying performances by top-notch artists, including Jermaine Dupri, Da Brat, Bow Wow, and Ludacris, among others. This celebration of hip-hop culture continues to be a platform for honoring and showcasing the best talents from around the world.
