Nigerian singer Ice Prince has clarified that he, not Davido, was the first African artist to receive a BET Award on stage.
Until recent years, African artists were awarded backstage at the BET Awards.
In a recent episode of ‘Listening,’ Ice Prince, who won the Best International Act, Africa Award in 2013, claimed that he broke the jinx, not Davido, who fans mistakenly credited.
“I am the first African artist to go on a BET stage and receive an award solo… When you guys talk about it, you give that credit to Davido,” he said.
Davido captured attention with his acceptance speech at the BET Awards in 2018 after winning the Best International Act award.
