The performance ended with a portion from The Great Depression interlude ‘The Prayer IV’. Watch it below. X passed away in April at the age of 50 unexpectedly after a reported overdose which led to multiple organ failure.
Lil Baby has been on fire for a couple of years now and it’s at a point where it’s strange to not hear him on one of the big Hip-Hop or R&B albums that drop. Of all of his collaborations, one of the strangest is one that came last month with Kirk Franklin. It’s called ‘We Win‘ and was released as part of the soundtrack for Space Jam: A New Legacy.

Megan Thee Stallion Performs ‘Thot Sh*t’ At 2021 BET Awards
At tonight’s BET Awards which are currently taking place live from Las Vegas, she took the stage for a performance of the song. We’re not sure if her recent social media exchange with fellow performer DaBaby had anything to do with it, but the performance and her aura had a dark feel to it. It made for a great watch.

We’re gonna bring [‘Leave the Door Open’] back! ‘Cause we’re still in the top 10! We’re gonna do this again, and again, and again!”
