Nigerian recording artists and musical giants, Burna Boy and Tems, have been nominated for the 17th BET Hip-Hop Awards. The event is scheduled to hold on Friday, September 30, 2022, in Atlanta, United States.

2022 has been a great year for Tems. From a BET award to working with legends like Grace Jones and Beyoncé; a Coca-Cola deal, and recording the official soundtrack of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, which is considered to be the biggest Marvel project this year.

Grammy-award winner, Burna Boy has been soaring as well. With his chart-topping album and tours in North America, the African giant has been booked and busy.

Burna Boy got a nomination in the Video Director of the Year category for the music video of ‘Last Last’. The video, which currently has over 75 million views on YouTube was self-directed, showing that Burna Boy has a penchant for visuals as well as audio.
