P-Square, MI for BET Awards Adekunle Ayeni The BET Hiphop Awards have for the first time ever, nominated Nigerian acts in their 'International' category. According to the list of nominees released by the organisers on Tuesday, homeboys, P-square and MI, are up for the 'Best International Act' prize, alongside other promising acts from across the world: Chipmunk (UK), Kojo Antwi (Ghana), Estelle (UK), Dizzee Rascal (UK), HHP (SA), K'Naan (Somalia), Sade (UK) and Corinne Bailey Rae (UK). advertisement The development, analysts say, is in line with BET's recent policy on the African continent, especially Nigeria where they're already doing a lot of work in terms of content. Nigeria is becoming one of the biggest markets for global youth brands, and the success of MTV (which came in February 2005), appears to be giving the green light to many others. MTV and MOBO are the first international awards to recognise home-grown African talents. But, unlike both awards which created separate 'African' categories, the BET is pitching African acts against their contemporaries from Europe and the US - a move that could work for, or against the African acts depending on who eventually wins what. This year's BET, scheduled for June 27, will be hosted by Hiphop veteran, Queen Latifah, at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. Meanwhile, some of the biggest nominees this year include Jay Z and Beyonce - with five and four nods respectively. Alicia Keys is also up for four categories, |

Happy for them, but P Square better go there and perform something original. With their obvious Americanisms, they will simply come across like fake wannabes if they perform such to a US crowd. They need to perform something with a very African feel. M.I will do us proud if he gets to perform. |
