Nigerian singer Ice Prince has set the record straight regarding the first African artist to receive a BET Award on stage.
In a recent episode of the 'Listening' podcast, Ice Prince revealed that he, not Davido, was the pioneer in this achievement.
The 2013 BET Awards saw Ice Prince winning the Best International Act, Africa category, making history by becoming the first African artist to be awarded on the main BET stage, breaking the tradition of African artists receiving their awards backstage."I am the first African artiste to go on a BET stage and receive an award solo… When you guys talk about it, you guys give that credit to Davido," Ice Prince clarified.
