## Resource

Lauryn Hill just shattered records as the first-ever recipient of the BET Living Legend Icon Award, and the stage exploded with love as SZA, Doechii, Nas, Doja Cat, Queen Latifah, Lizzo, Rapsody, and Tanya Trotter all took turns honoring her legacy with iconic performances of “Ready or Not,” “Fu-Gee-La,” and even a surprise duet of “If I Ruled the World.” But the real magic? Lauryn herself surprised everyone by stepping onstage to deliver a raw, unforgettable rendition of “Ex-Factor,” proving she’s still the queen of reinvention. After her rare Grammy tribute to D’Angelo and Flack, this moment seals her status as music’s eternal icon. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
