Childish Gambino, Victoria Monét & More Pay Homage to Usher With Anthem-Filled Tribute at 2024 BET Awards


The Usher tribute at the 2024 BET Awards featured Childish Gambino, Victoria Monet and more performing. Watch the performance.

While Usher may not rock the sandals and white linen fit Childish Gambino lined up, the multi-hyphenate did the R&B legend’s 2002 smash “U Don’t Have to Call” justice with a smooth cover before Keke Palmer joined him on stage. With “Nasty” shooting up the charts, Tinashe fittingly made a cameo, reimagining Usher’s “Nice & Slow.” Nashe put her own spin on the My Way classic and added a dance routine that the singer himself seemed to be in approval of. Latto closed out the tribute performance with the massive “Yeah!” sans guest appearances from Lil Jon and Ludacris; the topped the Billboard Hot 100 for 12 consecutive weeks in 2004.
