Reigning Ghana Artiste of the Year, Black Sherif, has secured his first BET award in the Best International Flow category at the 2023 Hip Hop Awards. The talented artist emerged victorious among nine other renowned rappers, including the late Aka and K.O from South Africa, as well as Sampa The Great from Zimbabwe. The international roster of nominees also featured artists from France, the UK, Brazil, and other countries.
This prestigious victory marks a significant milestone in Black Sherif’s career, as he adds another accolade to his growing list of achievements. In the 2022 edition of the BET Hip Hop Awards, he was nominated in the same “Best International Flow” category but narrowly missed out on the award, which went to Benjamin Epps.
The 2023 BET Hip Hop Awards ceremony was recorded in Atlanta on Tuesday, October 3, 2023, and is scheduled to be broadcast live on October 10. Congratulations and celebratory messages have been pouring in from fellow artists and well-wishers for Black Sherif, who previously clinched the top award at the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards last year.
With this win, Black Sherif becomes the second Ghanaian artist to receive the Best International Flow award, following in the footsteps of Sarkodie, who achieved this feat in 2019. His triumph underscores his growing influence and recognition in the international music scene, solidifying his status as a rising star in the global hip-hop landscape. Fans and supporters eagerly await the live broadcast of the awards ceremony to witness Black Sherif’s well-deserved recognition on the global stage.
