It appears that nobody is going to stop them. Right from entertaining Big Brother, our own Camp Mulla has received a historic nomination for the BET Awards. Camp Mulla has been nominated for the Best International Act (Africa) alongside Lira from South Africa, Nigeria’s Wizkid and Ice Prince, Mali’s Mokobe, and Ghana’s Sarkodie.
The 2012 BET Awards will be hosted by none other than the guy who brought us “Snakes on a Plane,” Samuel L. Jackson. The ceremony will take place on 1st July.
