Burnaboy, a Nigerian superstar, took up the Best International Act prize at the 2023 Black Entertainment Awards (BET).
The ‘African Giant’ crooner beat the likes of Ayra Starr, Central Cee and Stormzy, among others to clinch the most coveted category of BET awards.
Though Burna Boy was at the show when he was announced as the winner, his mother, Bose Ogulu, received the award on his behalf.
Burnaboy has had an amazing last couple of years.
His 2022 album ‘Love, Damini’ was a worldwide success, and he already took home a BET Award in the same category in 2019 and 2021.
Other nominees in the category included Aya Nakamura, Ayra Starr, Central Cee, Ella Mai, K.O, L7nnon, Stormzy, Tiakola and Uncle Waffles.
