The Ghana Entertainment Awards USA (GEA-USA) organisers have revealed this year’s nominations ahead of the main event on July 8 at the BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center in New York.

The awards, now in their fourth year, honour exceptional accomplishments in music, media, sports, events, and fashion in Ghana, the United States, and Canada. The GEA-USA returns this year after a two-year absence owing to the COVID-19 epidemic.

Nigerian stars such as Burna Boy, Davido, Tems, Wizkid, and Funke Akindele Bello were nominated in the category for Best African Entertainer, while Black Sherif, Sarkodie, Shatta Wale, Stonebwoy, and KiDi were nominated for Entertainer of the Year.
