Playboi Carti, Lil Wayne, GloRilla & More Announced As 2025 BET Awards Performers

By

Leon Thomas and Teyana Taylor also join GloRilla, Lil Wayne, and Playboi Carti as 2025 BET Awards performers.

The 2025 BET Awards are right around the corner, and we have the first wave of announced performers to look at thanks to Billboard. These include Playboi Carti off the success of his new album MUSIC, Lil Wayne with Tha Carter VI coming soon, and GloRilla continuing her dominance as a hip-hop hitmaker.

In addition, Teyana Taylor and Leon Thomas will also take the stage during the June 9 ceremony in Los Angeles. It will take place at the Peacock Theatre at L.A. Live and will air at 8PM EST on BET. Most notably, this will be the award show’s 25th anniversary extravaganza.

This performers list makes sense, and we can assume there are more on the way. Big Glo, for example, is one of the most nominated artists this year with six nods. GLORIOUS is up for Album of the Year, and she also has noms for Best Collaboration, Best Female Hip-Hop Artist, and more.
