5 Top Moments Of The 2023 BET Awards

Dubbed “Culture’s Biggest Night,” the BET Awards show took place at the Microsoft Theatre in Los Angeles. From the new-school generation of performances, wins, honorary achievements, and continuing the birthday celebration of hip-hop, this year’s award show had a lot of great moments worth celebrating despite not traditionally having a host and without writers in place. MC Lyte and DJ Kid Capri anchored the show by cueing performances and announcing what was to come next throughout the event. Here are the top five moments from the show:

This was a long-overdue win. Coco Jones has been a shining star within the entertainment industry. From her earliest days on Disney Channel, the star has always proven that she was a talent. After being called on stage, Coco tearfully walks up to accept her award. “For all of my Black girls, we do have to fight a little harder to get what we deserve, but don’t stop fighting”, she says passionately. “Even when it doesn’t make sense and you’re not sure how you’re gonna get out of these circumstances, keep pushing because we are deserving of great things.” Coco also performed her smash RnB hit “ICU” later in the evening and baby! The mic was ON!
