Yall should have a theme for next years awards. Let's🙌🏿 get 🙌🏿creative!
So Billy Ray can go to the BET AWARD SHOW BUT NAS CAN'T BE ON THE COUNTRY CHARTS. AND TALL WAS READY TO STONE JLO FOR HER PERFORMANCE....... NEVERMIND
BETNetworks it’s a shame these will spend their time on earth being praised and glorified. Jesus said what’s it profit a man to gain the whole world but lose his own soul.
They commented SO late
Thank you BET for acknowledging that music is sound and produces color from a full spectrum.
Read an interview where Billy Ray Cyrus said he was shocked, honored and humbled by the crowd's reaction and the fact that they were singin along with him. The guy is genuine and that makes this even better.
Nothing but love seeing this. All the haters will always hate. If you cant find the beauty in this gap bridging performance at the freaking B.E.T awards, then you just dont want to see progress.
Jackie chang would be proud
Hihihi!
I SAW CARD B !!!!!!!!!!
Billy Ray got Lil Nas X onto the country top 10, Lil Nas X got Billy Ray on BET.
Team work at it finest 🙌 Legendary
thats some beautiful shit
lola lane go eat a snicker your not logical when you’re hungry
Team work makes the dream work!!
Facts 😂
Billboard: This song isn’t country enough Billy Ray: Hold my beer
Yess !!!!!
boom
Hold my Coors 😂
That's Billy Ray!! I love him. Hes a sweetheart for jumping on this song.
Exactly
The most ambitious cultural crossover since Jay-Z and Linkin Park.
Ain't no touching the Jay/LP combo
😹😹 true
Erfyrrrccl Ms Cockdinhjyddfb
I think it could stand the test of time more. Alternative rock/rap and rap is much easier to mesh successfully than country and rap/trap. Although the jay/lp I like more.
Run DMC and Aerosmith did this decades ago. Onyx and Biohazard also did a song together. This is just new to the young generation.
Billy Ray never even thought he would show up at this awards show at his age. Life is amazing
Barry Never say never
with famous people
$$ talks and all billy thinkin is "thanks for being a token rugmat nas!"
Damn unity can't ever just be a thing with some of you can it? Is it really that hard?
@@codyyoung1160 Seems like you are trolling for a fight with someone, hell anyone. It is a cool thing that Billy Ray isn't as ignorant as you and he is just unarmored by Little Was X and the opportunity they both gave each other. So why can't you just be happy for them. People like you just love to sit at that keyboard and throw insult after insult, your life must be a complete hell being just an average dude name Cody Young, Cody Young who?
The fact that billy ray found his way onto BET... I mean this is just beautiful man
The fact when he started singing they actually knew the words it wasn't just like he was up there it wasn't like he's Miley Cyrus dad it was really beautiful to see that he is embraced versus if we go to a country music award ceremony this would not be reciprocated and it's sad but I love the energy that was given to Billy. Also Billy thank you for giving Lil Nas x a chance
Chelle27 EXACTLY that was beautifully worded
share.cloutpay.co/Veez4
paige Lmfaoo was literally thinking the same thing yo😂😂😂😭😭😭😭
paige this is definitely groundbreaking
Miley Cyrus: dad you're embarrassing me in front of my hood friends. Billy Ray Cyrus: baby I am the hood.🤠
😂😂😂😂😂😂🎿🎿🚒🔥🔥🔥
Miley once did the song with them lol
@@dripgodsham what
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmaoo 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You know the sh*t is a hit when even da hardcore looking dudes in the audience are low key singing the lyrics
My brother or sister you shouldn't cuss ❤️ please ask for forgiveness from our Lord Allah SWT ❤️ Also Allah is just Lord in Arabic ❤️
woah no one cares about your religion Chinne chill.
Man! I said the same thing lol
@@jennachinne9639 im sorry i promise to not f*cking curse another g*d*mn word from my sh*tty mouth. I hope my half-*ssed apology suffices.
Glad to see Billy Ray showed up for lil Nas X performance at the BET awards!!!! Great Duo
Of course he would show up..besides Lil Nas bought him a massarati after the video..Plus he has been getting so much backlash from people..Great Crossover and collaboration..
Shit he pulled up to Hot 97's Summer Jam at the beginning of the month too and perform with Lil Nas and Cardi in front of an entire NYC, Jersey, Connecticut Hip Hop crowd.
Byron Brooks stone cold I feel like nas would be to scared because the country community don’t like him or the song.
@@malikswrld6612 some people don't like him that's with other people.
@@malikswrld6612 Well, I know a lot of country folks that do like him and the song. Don't believe the media, go to the heart and find out :)
Lil Nas X crushing Billy Ray with the saloon doors
Lmao
i seen that im dying
😝
😂🤣
Deadass 😩😂
Dude the whole crowd was into it and singing the lyrics. At some parts you could hear the audience lol awesome.
People watching this like: - in bed - not in a full screen - reading comments.
How u know ff Player?
U blew my mind
How tf did you know?
remember
True!
This is the only awards show where the people in the audience look like they're actually having fun.
Yeah the others are too stiff for me
And the Tonys
thats cus alot of them are paid crowd fillers
Cleromanticon this show was horrible
Shahiyd Walker first of all they’re not paid 😂😂😂
The fact that Billy Ray Cyrus has Lil Nas X back is beautiful.
And they both won. Got Billy his biggest hit in years and they're both breaking records across charts. Proof you win more together
Let’s not act like the money 💰 wasn’t a factor
ikr. After all our struggles & achievements. All we need is white acceptance & we've made it. SAD.
yes it’s so good 🙌🏽 respect
Why is it beautiful? Because he’s white, have some self respect man. Billy Ray took an opportunity he’s getting bad of a young black man’s back. Simple as that, ain’t nothing beautiful about that apart from the song.
Music is universal. Love this so much!!
I never thought i would ever see country sung at the BET awards & everybody loves it! I’m not a fan of country.....& i grew up in Nashville.....those country music artists are some of the most awesome people! I do love this song!! Way to evolve BET! Oh & nobody can’t tell lil NAS that he wears the hell out of that suit!
Hello 👋 how are you feeling today??
5525
Never in my lifetime would I fathom billy ray cyrus performing at the BET awards lmao. Love this so much ❤️
DeJana L like your vocabulary “fathom”
Me too. Loved it.
Chris Cooper You Mad? Tf
@Chris Cooper I sure did love their performance as well as others, plus the millions upon millions that downloaded this song. As you can see the audience loved it too, as they sang every word. I love all music hip-hop, R&B, country, soft-rock, pop-music, alternative, etc. BET has always embraced diversity in music, no matter what race. It's a fun song and you must have liked it too, because you are here watching it again.
Chris Cooper cardi b isnt black....
A country singer at the BET awards - these are the times that make happy to be alive in 2019!! 👏👏👏
Dorcas Winter me too
But i bet they wont let nas at the country awards or what ever the hell they call that shit
why? black folks always letting everybody in and giving out passes to everybody. Now if we see Lil Nas perform at the CMA's, now that would be something, but it would never happen cause white people are still racist af.
@@blaccbeard agreed, im white but racism disgusts me cuz im so obsessed with black culture.
Iso GUCCI JAY ...you know there are Black Country singers right?
A country song being performed at the. @BET awards is genuinely one of our country’s best moments of unity.
Man, this is what art is all about! I loooove the fact that these two genres were combined and it made a hell of a song! As a people, we need to learn to appreciate and respect other cultures…there is so much to learn and it brings people together! Everyone was having a ball when they were performing! Love this song and the performance!
0:34 hold the door for your boy Billy Ray Cyrus 😂
Fr that was mean
For tho its hilarious 😂 did u see his face bro, put your playback speed to 25 or 75 and then look at him 🤣😂
*YOU'RE THE GHETTO TYPE THAT WE HOPE DOESN'T HAVE KIDS EVER 🤧 A NEGATIVE POS*
TheWiseGuy lol i saw that 😭😂💀
@@DavinLewisPRO davin, what kind of crack were your parents on to burden you with a name like that?
I love how you can hear the crowd singing along.
You can also see it
1:03 this girl expressed the complete song in just 1 expression at Nas's drop
She's so beauty. Do you know what's her name?
@@isabellagodwil1675 no idk i thought she's just a person in audience?
@@malharpatel1139 I don't think so... I've seen her before a serie or a movie, but I can't get it.
@@isabellagodwil1675 oo ok I've also seen her but can't getting it right now 🤔
@@isabellagodwil1675 se llama Draya Michelle , de nada ✌️
Billy Ray Cyrus looks like an extremely chilled guy
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
This is emotional. 🤦🏾♂️✊🏿 He was on his sisters couch in November. God is good!
PRAISE!!! PREACH! LOVE IT!!
Yes He is What's for you is for you Amen
There is always a BIG MOUTH HATER OUT THERE! HE'S DOING NUMBERS,AND THE HATER CAN TAKE A NUMBER!
BIG FACTS!
Ohh that’s awesome!! Happy for him.
Never thought I would ever see billy Ray Cyrus at bet award show
Just leave Miley ass at home.
@@greatgreatgrindfather1456 facts lol
GREAT GREAT GRINDFATHER LOL 😂😂😂
Deadasssss lmao
@@greatgreatgrindfather1456 😀😀😁😂😁😁😁💀💀💀💯💯💯
One of the best entrances I've ever seen. Two guys on horseback arriving at Staples Center in full on cowboy gear with cowboy hats. Billy Ray armed with a guitar.
The vibes here are impeccable so I keep coming back.
The band took this to a whole nother level EVERYBODY in that crowd was lit
Bruh. They were FIRE. 🔥
Yezzir..band was noice
Yes they were
@Sidney Mantissa black people created country music. We're taking back what's ours. Country only seemed white cause it was predominantly made by white people.
@Sidney Mantissa This has nothing to do with the comment you replied to. Go away.
This is what happens when you bring cultures and ideals together. This was just a lot of fun! You come back now Ray Cyrus!!!!
💯💯
Lol what cultures?Im curious cause i see only one
i am beautiful. so are you! A very ignorant one I see lol
ChamrisTv like i said im curious😳
lol you definitely from the south I literally said this like my pawpaw 😂😂
Billy Ray and lil nas killed it i love it, people were singing along too lmaoooo, they did that performance dope 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is probably the best live performance I’ve ever seen loved the crowds energy
The only thing children know Billy for nowadays is Old Town Road and man that just breaks my Achy Breaky Heart.
Lol😂😂 that was a good one yet so true😑
As Miley's dad too
I’m still a kid but it does break my heart too because I grew up with Hannah Montana thanks to my aunt for introducing it to me when I was 5 (9years ago for me)
Mia Monroe Nah. She’s garbage.
taine Most children don’t like country.
The dancers went SO hard lmao. & did y’all see Billy Rays lil foot movement?😂Loved it
This never gets old. Fun AF. And I can't get over how handsome LNX is...
Probably the best version of this song (IMO) Such a great song. The chemistry and love these two had for each other was incredible.
I agree, nothing beats live instruments
Notice how Billy Ray tips his hat to the security men. Nice touch.✌️✊
Racer X wow we got a comedian
This young black man got Billy Ray Cyrus to the BET Awards! Great job!
Shut up.
@@hotties3v3n he's got a point
Yeah but billy Ray Cyrus is the reason why he’s known now and making money. Nobody knew who this guy was before
@@94FADE are you actually stupid?
94FADE the song was popping before him
This song always gives me chills. Amazing talent
Crossovers are the best! I love when country and hip hop comes together in music!! It’s a beautiful thing!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love how everyone in the audience is singing and genuinely having a good time!
Dani wow.. it’s like it an music award show..
Golazo Highlights lmao um no. sometimes people aren’t feeling the song and won’t join in. i said genuinely because it doesn’t look forced. but good try :)
Dani lmao wow it’s like you have to reply, are you so insecure about it? People have fun times at shows, get over it 🤷♂️
Golazo Highlights dude chill out
Baashaal Baashaal What prompted you to reply to something that has nothing to do with you? Headass
who would’ve ever predicted Billy Ray Cyrus performing at the BET Awards in 2019 😭 life is crazy lol
Why? Because you all are racist!
Billy got a ticket to the BIG cookout.
I made the 600th like.. you’re welcome
Vera 1957 what’s that got to do with it? It makes sense that one would not expect him to be there because bet is mostly a hip hop and rnb award show
@@Vera-xu3xw so because people didnt expect Billy to be at the BET awards that makes them racist?lmao gtfo here snowflake😂
Lil Nas was a born star 🌟 🤩 that powerful energy that had everyone on their feet. Now that's what power looks like. Him doing his thing. Much love from Fiji 🇫🇯 ❤
Yes. This is like crossing a bridge that we all cross to try to get to the other side. That other side is where we find love, compassion and the coming together of all human beings. We need so much of this in these dark and troubled times. Unite as One!!
I didn’t realize how hard Billy actually goes on this song. He made that whole performance click
Oh, Billy be killin it!
Tony Lopez he did
He didnt even sing. Lip synced the entire thing. Wack
Naaa just white folks cant listen to a brother
Yeah Billy was really singing. You can hear him come in just a few seconds after the backtrack begins.
Never thought I would see Billy Ray Cyrus on the BET awards 😂😂
thats what im saying i had to double check if it was the bet awards
@Kelp Farming excuse me??
@Kelp Farming Lmao what?
He got the black card Fasho he get a pass
@Kelp Farming you weird asf
the Girl appear while Billy just finish his first chorus is excellent
Manooooooooo! Tô maratonando essa mesma apresentação! É simplesmente de arrepiar! O remix, a banda e o público simplesmente arrasaram nesse concerto e ah, não podemos esquecer dos cantores da música, né? Simplesmente incrível!!!
the fact that BET welcomed Billy Ray Cyrus with open arms and the CMT shut out Lil Nas X speaks VOLUMES
I said the same damn thing.
its always been like this unfortunately
And the audience singing in the background 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Black people have always been more welcoming to us once they realize we mean well then vice versa. White people always assume anything darker than us is bad regardless of proof given
@@FlowerTower Some are, yes. Maybe a lot. But it's important to make the distinction that it isn't all.
2:18 YG saw the camera while he was singing Billy Ray Cyrus's verse and said "And I oop-"
🤣🤣🤣🤣
For real, i notice that too hahahha
😂😂😂😂
LMFAOOOOO
😂😂😂😂, I went back and saw it yep!!!
I watched this song on BET, CMT, MTV, Grand OL' OpRy, late night shows, etc. I've heard Billy Ray, w/o Nas, and Nas, w/o Billy Ray. This song only sounds great by bringing the two together! The way BET had the saloon video set, the crowd energy, the sound of the BET studio, everything this live show made it the BEST!
Feeling great positive vibes watching and listening to this :) everyones having so much fun, I loved it
1930s: We will have flying cars in the future 2019: *Cowboy rappers*
Cowboy rappers isn’t a new thing
Bruh 🤣🤣🤣
Gay cowboy rappers
@@daniellopez2239 why?
Black gay cowboy rappers :)
2:18 yg singing till he seen that camera 🤣🤣
If you wear headphones you can hear him singing it. Very faint.
Lol he turned his head so quick and on beat. thnx 4 that catch
Facts bra I’m dead I seen that I’m rollin
😂😆 he dont want people to know he like the song
Acting like shewing n shit lol
Caught a glimpse of Chadwick Boseman in the audience. Wasn’t expecting watching this would hurt.
Where
I also can't see him
tsk you trippin
Im not even interested in country music, but my entire soul was shook by surprise during the first notes, going along with the whole song on a ride! This song was just such a pleasant experience, even a live performance didn't shake away at my first impression of the song. (Which Usually Always Happens mind you, never liked much live) Can tell this was quite the hit on me, Lil Nas and Billy Ray Cyrus made for such an amazingly perfect combo! Could feel myself dancing along to the beat.
Lil Nas deserves this 😭 Seeing everyone singing & bopping along in the audience makes me so happy. This new arrangement is 🔥🔥🔥
No .shit was trashhhhh stop it...
The energy in the room during this performance made my soul happy!
Very happy!!
i can made you happy, my dear
Righttt....gave me chills the entire time
this performance ended racism
Deysy Hernandez. The energy in the room is b.s. Blacks kill me with this b.s We accept everyone because we wanna b accepted. Smh. U people disgust me.
I love that Nas X is crossing all boundaries 🙌 despite the haters
This was such a good performance!! And it made me super proud of lil nas x.
Never in a hundred years would I imagine a country song at the BET awards... let alone Billy Ray Cyrus
I love it
I feel u lol
There have been country songs before thay were just not acknowledged as country songs by the non-black masses🤷🏾♀️
Rite it's mind blowing
@@livinglife7515 she mean one we all agree on and actually like ...a blow over this big and nicely blend...
Billy's voice though🔥🔥🔥🔥this live performance on repeat!
I played it 5 times in a row!!! Its amazing!!!
Lip sync bro. I was actually pretty disappointed
@@kennethflood1471 that bit yes, and i wonder why
We not gonna talk about how those doors came back quick on Billy like that at 0:30? lmao
Yeah i realize that to 😂
Now that's entertainment Talent preformers music Rhythm & Soul the both of them
lil nas x: were performing at bet billy cyrus: hand me my gEEEEEtar
dream glower LMFAOOOOOO
dream glower hahahaha
I love it
🤣🤣😂😂
The fact that old town road is being performed at the BET awards AND the crowd is hype for it...is simply amazing. Shoutout to Lil Nas X and Old Billy Ray
Meanwhile, Beyonce and her reception singing on a country platform....
Oh my god you even got a little Indian girl like me bopping to this 😂😂😂I have a new found love for country music. So much soul and swag came together in this song I hope I never get sick of this !!!!!!!!
I feel like I'm the only one who thought they would bring the horses on stage 😂
Honestly it would have been dreadful. With all the light and sound on stage they could have panicked and start attacking
itsanofromme and also illegal lol
them big horses would have broke the stage
itsanofromme 😭😂
No, you're not lolssss. If the horses were from mobile or new Orleans they would have been ready for the action lolssss! Mardi Gras ready
I can't get over the crowd's amazing harmony. Sounds like a choir.
lea's tanuki cause they black😎
Anything Ttreat 🤣
No frrr
Well, some of that is a backing track, and the other part is the performers on stage. The audience is barely mic'ed
That's what fascinates me the most. Who do I pay more attention to???? The performers, or the crowd that know the entire song by heart who sang their hearts out. #goodenergy.
Omg i remember this guess a year went by fast now nobody is obsessed with this song good old days I stayed up waiting my cousin being obsessed with this it was crazy but now i aint got cable
Gold, new gen meets old gen and hit's it out the park.
Can we take a second to appreciate the crowd’s energy?! Love that everyone was singing along and dancing 😭
Agreed! This song is impossible not to groove too lol truly one of a kind
Can we take a second to appreciate how fine u are 😏
@@Tristen_Neufville why we always has To have that one weird guy😂😂
@@wtp7138 he aint lying though Smh
Karli Cassandra this song was a bop
Billy is officially invited to the bbq, wedding, birthday, everything.
Caleb Dorsey 🤣🤣🤣

He did one song with a black person now he invited to the cookout lol yall give in so easy
Is he invited to the drive-by's too? 😂😂😂😂😂😂 CLASSIC! Y'all gonna invite a white dude to the BBQ while we killing each other on some bullshit every day.
@@jajwuanlynn7356 we are just accepting at times lol, it's just a jok comment.. you see how accepting we are of Billy??? Now when Beyoncé went on that lil CMA stage, the racism jumped out.. we different
I love the collaboration. Whites and blacks mixed together and just having fun and is all about good music 🎶
This can't possibly be the 1st time you saw whites and blacks singing together.
@@lifehappens9557 ikr 😂
This song and “Clover Cage - One More Try” are the only two things keeping me sane through these tough times. I just want to send love to everyone and I want everyone to know things will get better...We are in this together...I love you.

I love this song , I listen to it every morning and it is one of the ones that lifts my spirits 😊😊😊😊😊😊
This song and “Clover Cage - Ride or Die” are the only two things keeping me sane through these tough times. I just want to send love to everyone and I want everyone to know things will get better.. I love you..
I bet Billy Ray never thought he be performing on BET awards before this song came out 😂
2:18 YG trynna act like he ain’t singing Billy’s verse lmao 😂😂💀💀

He went from Maserati sports car to how it feels to chew 5 gum

Kmsl!! I was thinking the same thing!! 😅😅😂😂

i love how people really enjoying this. he had $5 in his bank account when he dropped this song. shit crazy
Aj Rivers really
Paid $30 for the beat. Made millions. Ultimate hustler
@@lwrncjms Yeah $30 for the beat now he and youngKio are doing the damn thing
Hulk One *stonks*
A good investment can always be made.
Lil Nas brought country music to the BET Awards! Classic!
I really feel sorry the kid, because the country music pull it off the chart, he work his tail off and that's wrong of them to do that. If you listen to Johny Cash, you will realize he kinda talks through his song, I love his music too.
Its not all that
😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's not country music & this performance sounds nothing like it
Lol you consider this to be country music? The music they play on the country station these days is already far from country. I’m not trying to talk shit on this song but it is not country. If you want to hear country listen to brooks and dunn
Idk why but this kinda got me hyped up the beat and the performance
From Ireland, loving this.
They tried to cancel him, but he came back stronger than ever.
SidTV25 nasmaraj?
Facts tried to take em off the charts
Gay king 🙏
snatched. .. not funny
Country music had him, then seen him and said, "Nah".
Black, white, country, hip hop. This is uniquely American. The U.S. culture can provide this diversity. We need to stop fighting with each other.
Amen
lol
why are you only saying black and white like if the US is only formed by whites and blacks lol
It's not only in the U.S a lot of countrys have diversity
@@honeymoonontop not china
We had fun Billy thanx love ya always ...I'm glad you are able to utilize them pants 👖...
Essa energia da galera nas apresentações do bet awards é foda demais.
This is one of those songs that just brings ppl together cuz no matter who you are, you can’t deny this song’s a bop
BILLY SOUNDED JUST LIKE THE RECORD LIVE he for the culture
Bob ross aka jackie chang love seeing his spy friend
captain John Price xD
lmao thats because they arent performing... its a track played in the back. Nas x isnt performing either.
I loved this song when I first heard it and I still do now.
It's great though and everyone up and singing. That's what it's all about
Hello 👋 how are you feeling today??
@@richardjames3774 okay
Props to Billy for not being scared and showing love! Props.
Why would he be scared? Its a legit award show.
My mom and dad said it was boring it was the only one I liked was this
Ummm But still why ? Why intimidated? Billy Ray Cyrus has been around for decades. I'm sure he was no way intimidated.
why would he be afraid of his own American brothers and sisters ?
Black people aren't scary
everyone in the audience singing along was amazing lol. love when musicians come together
so talented he never gets old , hes amazing
Historic fusion of hip hop and country by Billy Ray Cyrus and Lil Nas X!
