Grammy-award winning artist Burna Boy faced disappointment at the recently concluded 2023 BET Hip-Hop Awards held at Atlanta’s Cobb Energy Performing Arts Center on Tuesday night. Despite seven nominations, he lost in all categories.

Burna Boy missed out on the titles for Hip Hop Artist of the Year, Lyricist of the Year, and Best Live Performer of the Year, with Kendrick Lamar taking the victory in these categories.

In addition, Burna Boy was defeated in the Hustler of the Year category by 50Cent and in the Best Collaboration of the Year for ‘Sittin’ On Top Of The World’ featuring 21 Savage, losing to Lil Durk and J. Cole’s ‘All My Life.’

Further losses for Burna Boy included Best Hip Hop Video for ‘Sittin’ On Top Of The World’ featuring 21 Savage, which was won by Lil Uzi Vert’s ‘Just Wanna Rock’, and Song of the Year, which was also awarded to Lil Uzi Vert for the same song.

On a positive note, Ghanaian sensation Black Sherif emerged victorious in the Best International Flow category, surpassing competitors like South Africa’s late AKA and K.O, France’s Gazo and Ninho, as well as the UK’s J Hus and Central Cee, among others.
