Ghanaian singer, Gregory Bortey Newman, widely known by his stage name King Promise says Ghanaian artistes missing out on nominations for this year’s BET Awards not what he expected.
Speaking in an interview with Ohemaa Woyeje on Adom FM’s “Work and Happiness” on Tuesday, the “Selfish” hitmaker said he was surprised Ghana was left out.
“It’s disappointing. We want people to represent us on the international scene and it’s sad we had no nomination”, he told Ohemaa.
