This year’s BET Awards are full of countless performances, and for a good reason: the channel is celebrating 50 years of hip-hop with a massive tribute to the genre featuring many artists; E-40, Fat Joe, Ja Rule, Master P, and Soulja Boy just to name a few. But that’s not the only one tribute performance. Bia, Coi Leray, Cutty Ranks, Dexta Daps, M.O.P., Rah Digga, ScarLip, Spice, Supercat, Swizz Beatz, and more surprise guests are joining the stage for Busta Rhymes lifetime achievement award celebration — previous honorees include Sean “Diddy” Combs, Whitney Houston, and Prince. And of course, Patti Labelle is doing a special tribute for the late Tina Turner.
In case you were itching for more music, you’re in luck! Ice Spice, Latto, Coco Jones, Doechii, GloRilla, Lil Uzi Vert, and Mad Lion are performing throughout the show. The BET Awards airs, well, on BET and BET Her on Sunday, June 25 at 8 PM ET. There’s also a telecast simultaneously on MTV, MTV2, TV Land, VH1, and Logo TV. As a streaming option, you can watch it on Paramount+ and BET.com.
