Inside BET Awards' Sounds of Africa Showcase + International Nominee Party

Okayafrica had a heavy presence when it came to all things Africa during the BET Awards weekend in LA (like Hamamat'sInstagram takeover!).


On Friday, we had photographer Oluwaseye Olusa snap gorgeous photos at the Grammy Museum during the Sounds of Africa Showcase, featuring fashions by David Tlale and Laolu Senbanjo's Sacred Art of the Ori, and the BET International Nominee Party hosted by Akon and Devyne Stephens, where newly awarded Black Coffee hit the turntables and the likes of Yemi Alade, Eva Marcille, and Millen Magese danced the night away.

Stay tuned for more Okayafrica coverage, and check out the images of the evening below:
