Bow Wow built his own lane. His debut single spent nine weeks at No. 1 on the Hot Rap Tracks chart, he released three successful albums and landed a string of big screen appearances, all before turning 18. His transformation from child star to well-rounded entertainer serves as a blueprint for longevity, and honoring the impact and legacy of BET without him would have been incomplete.

As the Ohio-bred rapper says himself, Bow Wow keeps his set in the “No. 1 region,” presenting fresh takes on a handful of his top-charting rap records throughout the years. The decades of dedication to his craft were evident in the cadence, stage presence and high-energy infused in performances of “Shortie Like Mine,” “Fresh Azimiz” and “Let Me Hold You.” Bow Wow also makes sure to include “Bounce with Me (from the motion picture Big Momma’s House),” the song that started it all. Hearing it in the room felt full circle, a reminder that everything he built from just 13 years old has led to this exact moment.
