Se listan över vinnarna på nattens gala här!
SZA och Bruno Mars stod båda som flerfaldigt prisade artister på nattens BET Soul Train Awards (se listan över vinnarna nedan). Galakvällens värdinna sedan flera år tillbaka, Erykah Badu, gjorde rubriker när hon på scen valde att visa sympati för Colin Kaepernicks knäböjande och ställningstagande mot rasism, sociala orättvisor och polisbrutalitet.
“I know I usually do a big elaborate musical number, but right here I feel the need to do this. This for Kap! Kap we appreciate you giving your life. Giving up your dream because you believe in us.”
