The 2025 BET Awards will certainly be one to remember as the network celebrated “25 Years of Culture’s Biggest Night”! The ceremony was hosted by Kevin Hart with hip-hop legend MC Lyte also known as “The Voice” moderating the show. With many exciting moments including the 106 & Park reunion or surprise presenters Kai Cenat and Druski, nothing was more thrilling for DFW natives than seeing two of our biggest superstars be honored for their contribution to entertainment.
