During the 2021 BET Awards last night (27 June), Swizz Beatz, Method Man, Busta Rhymes and more paid tribute to DMX by performing a medley of his biggest songs.
Following the release of DMX's posthumous album Exodus last month, Swizz Beatz recruited Method Man, Busta Rhymes, The Lox, Griselda, Track, actor Michael K Williams and Lil Buck to perform a medley of the late rapper's biggest tracks during last night's (27 June) BET Awards.
The tribute medley featured portions of DMX's "Ruff Ryders Anthem", "Slippin'", "Party Up" and more.
DMX died in April aged 50.
