LIVE STREAM: BET Awards 16
The BET Awards will feature several performances from various artists across different genres. Usher, Future, Alicia Keys, Bryson Tiller and more have signed on to entertain the masses during the show. It appears as though a number of artists have plans to pay homage to Prince through performance during the 2016 BET Awards, as well.
