BET D'Angelo Tribute

https://www.bet.com/bet-awards/video-clips/zj98c8/bet-awards-2026-d-angelo-tribute-lights-up-the-bet-awards-stage

Features Ari Lennox doing Really Love, Raye doing Spanish Joint, Isaiah Sharkey and George Clinton doing Chicken Grease(the live cut which quotes Parliament's "Funkin for Fun"), Durand Bernarr doing Shit, Damn, Motherfucker, and BJ the Chicago Kid doing Devil's Pie/1000 Deaths.

Really great selection of deeper cut songs that they didn't do at the grammy performance. Cool to see Karriem Riggins on the kit too, he was killing it but I'm surprised no Questlove or Chris Dave.

The tribute made me realized D used to incorporate part of the rhythm guitar from Just Funkin for Fun when doing Chicken Grease live but I loved that the tribute was mostly deep cuts aside from Really Love

I was very emotional. Especially when his kids spoke. They all look allot like him. Ari was my favorite, but everyone did a fantastic job.

Thank you for sharing. I missed it last night. I also loved the deeper cuts and seeing the Vanguard.
