From The Same Alma Mata: Sarkodie & Stonebwoy Get Nominated At 2015 BET Awards Alongside Wizkid, Yemi Alade…

This is the first time Stonebwoy is been nominated at the  BET and this comes after he won this year’s artiste of the year. This happens to be the 3rd time for Sarkodie. He won in that category in 2012 when he was first nominated. He was nominated again last year, but lost to Davido.

Stonebwoy and Sarkodie, the two acts from Ghana nominated in that category will be battling it out with AKA from South Africa, Wizkid from Nigeria,  Fally Ipupa from Congo, Yemi Alade of Nigeria, Sauti Sol from Kenya and music group the soil from South Africa.

Both Stonebwoy and Sarkodie have had a successful year in their music career and it’s no surprise that they have been nominated. It’s even more exciting as they both attended the same secondary school; Tema Methodist Day Secondary School.

Stoneybwoy featured Sarkodie on his biggest hit “Baafira”

Fuse ODG also got nominate in the best Best International Act, UK.  The news comes a great joy for both fans of the two music act.
