The first day of the BET Experience at L.A. Live presented by Coca-Cola® at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles, California kicked off with some exciting performances from your favorite hip-hop artists.
Kid Cudi took to the stage for the first time after a long hiatus from performing for an enthusiastic crowd of devoted fans. He sang his classics including “Mr. Rager,” “Erase Me,” “Ghost” and more! Justin Bieber was also spotted backstage watching Cudi perform “Pursuit of Happiness.” We’re happy to see Kid Cudi doing well and enjoying life.
“Panda” hit singer Desiigner also lit up the night with an energetic performance as he repeatedly jumped off stage and ran in to the crowd to party with his fans. Hot up-and-comer Playboi Carti shut the stage down following his recent XXL 2017 Freshman Class honor and brought out Lil Uzi Vert for several tracks including “XO TOUR Llif3.” Then, G.O.O.D. Music’s own Pusha T hit the stage to perform “Untouchable,” “Trouble on My Mind,” and “Mercy” and also brought out The Dream to join him onstage. Cali’s very own Snoop Dogg with fellow rapper Wiz Khalifa had the crowd moving to their undeniable jams including “Young, Wild & Free,” “Black and Yellow,” “Drop It Like It’s Hot,” “Gin & Juice” and more. They also brought out friends Ty Dolla $ign, Joey Bada$$ and K Camp.
At the conclusion of the BET Experience at LA Live first night festivities, the party continued with a late night concert at The Novo with reggaetón singer De La Ghetto. Formally of Arcángel & De La Ghetto, De La Ghetto has broken the scene as a solo artist. His collaboration with collaboration with Randy, “Sensación del Bloque,” has received over 60 million views and his album debut album Masacre Musical reached the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart in U.S.
