Sho is nominated in the Best New International Act category together with Teniola Apata from Nigeria, Headie One and Octavian from the UK, and France’s Jokair and Nesly. In the Best International Act category, South African rapper AKA is nominated along with with Nigerian musicians Burna Boy and Mr Eazi.

"Congrats Sho Madjozi on your well deserved BET Awards nomination! #BestNewInternationalAct," he wrote.

Goodluck, Sho! You make us proud and raise the South African flag high. We are behind and love you.
