Burna Boy and Tems have been nominated in different categories of the 2022 BET Hip-Hop Awards.
Tems secured three nods for her collaboration on Future’s ‘Wait For U,’ which also featured Drake. The song was nominated for ‘Song Of The Year,’ ‘Best Collaboration,’ and ‘Best Hip-Hop Video.’
Burna Boy may be a full-time musician but was designated to contend for the ‘Video Of The Year’ category for his self-directed music video, ‘Last Last.’ He will contest against Director X, Cole Bennett, and Colin Tilley, among others.
The 2022 BET Hip-Hop awards show is slated to hold on Friday, September 30 in Atlanta, United States.
