Shortly after announcing his UK Highest tour which takes place from November 23 – 25 in Birmingham, London and Manchester, and on the back of his hugely successful fifth studio album, Highest, which continues to dominate iTunes and Spotify charts all around the world, Ghanaian rap star Sarkodie has just been nominated for a 2017 MOBO Award in the Best African Act category.

This marks his second nomination at the renowned MOBO Awards, following his nomination in the same category in 2012, the same year he won the prestigious BET Award for Best International Act.

Alongside the MOBO Award nomination, he has also been nominated for Best Artist In West Africa in the 2017 All Africa Music Awards, and he won the Best Rap Act award at the just concluded AFRIMMA 2017 in New York.
