Celebrating his victories, Kendrick shared a heartfelt message during the event: “I ain’t been here in a long time but I always kept my heart BET…” His words resonated with the audience as he acknowledged the impact of their support.
Meanwhile, Kendrick and SZA are on their Grand National tour, thrilling fans across North America and gearing up for their upcoming European stadium shows.
