Malgré les tensions qui secouent actuellement Los Angeles, la cérémonie des BET Awards 2025 s’est déroulée comme prévu et a largement tenu ses promesses. Une soirée marquée par de belles performances, des hommages vibrants, et surtout, la domination de Kendrick Lamar.
Le rappeur de Compton, en lice dans dix catégories, est reparti avec cinq trophées, dont ceux de l’album de l’année pour GNX, du meilleur featuring pour Luther avec SZA, de l’artiste hip-hop masculin de l’année, du clip de l’année avec Not Like Us, et de la réalisation vidéo de l’année aux côtés de Dave Free.
Chris Brown, fidèle à son standing, a également été doublement récompensé, notamment en tant que meilleur artiste R&B/Pop masculin et Viewer’s Choice Award avec Residuals”.
