Ghanaian artists missed out on nominations for the highly anticipated 2024 BET Awards, as Nigerian talents dominated the list of nominees announced for the prestigious event scheduled for Sunday, June 30.
Leading the pack of Nigerian nominees is the acclaimed singer Ayra Starr who secured three nominations in different categories.
Alongside her recognition in the Best New International Act category, she also received nods in the BET Her and Best International Act categories.
She is followed by Burna Boy with 2 nominations in the Best Male Hip-Hop Artist and Best Male R&B/Pop Artist categories.
