Reigning Vodafone Ghana Music Awards Artiste of the Year, Black Sherif, known in private life as Mohammed Ismail Sherif has this year won the coveted Black International Flow award at this year’s BET Hip Hop Awards in the United States of America.
Blacko as he is affectionately called beat competition from 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).
This was revealed after a pre-recorded snippets leaked online this morning with ‘Kwaku The Traveler’ on stage in the US to pick up the award.
Blacko was nominated in the same category last year, but he lost out to Benjamin Epps from France.
The main show is set to premiere on Tuesday, October 10 on BET.
Few weeks ago, Blacko won the ‘West African Artiste of The Year’ category’ in the USA for his significant contribution to the continent’s music scene during the year under review.
These successes are a testament to his rapid growth in a short career span.
