Cardi B and Nicki Minaj to Headline BET Experience 2019
The 2019 BET Experience will be all about Cardi B and Nicki Minaj since the organizers announced they will both headline concerts at this year’s BET Experience in Los Angeles.
Tickets for the festival can be purchased here.
The female rappers will both headline concerts at the seventh annual BET Experience taking place in June but fortunately, they will headline the separate nights of this three-day event. Nicki Minaj will headline the first day, 21 June, followed with Lil Wayne, Tory Lanez, Trippie Redd and BriSteves’ performances. Cardi B will take the stage on 22 June, along with Migos, Lil Yachty, Lil Baby and City Girls.
Cardi B and Nicki Minaj are long-term opponents and their fight culminated with a physical fight at New York Fashion Week which started when Cardi reportedly threw a shoe at Minaj. The feud went on for months when each of the rappers used their interviews and social media to trash the other one but last fall they seem to give it a rest. Considering the ever-going rivalry and fight for the rap-throne, we can’t wait to see their performance that is bound to be mind-blowing.
Nicki Minaj released her fourth album Queen in 2018, with features from Eminem, Lil Wayne, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Future. She is kicking off her Nicki WRLD Tour in February when she will perform in 50 cities across Europe and North America. Minaj cancelled the North American leg of 2018 NICKIHNDRXX tour with the explanation she has to “reevaluate the elements of the production on the tour” and rehearse more before she hits the road. Dates have been rescheduled for May 2019 with Chun-Li instead of Future as the opening act.
Cardi B’s 2018 album Invasion of Privacy was a huge success with No.1 hits like “Bodak Yellow” and “I Like It” featuring J Balvin and Bad Bunny. She pulled out of Bruno Mars’ extensive tour last summer after giving birth to her first child with the explanation she needs time to recover both physically and mentally. But now, she seems ready to rock her fans.
BET Experience is held days before the 2019 BET Awards, and will also include the BET Fan Fest at the Los Angeles Convention Center. The event will feature a celebrity basketball game, dodgeball game, hair and make-up lounges, gaming areas, meet-and-greets and much more.
The three-day pass for this amazing event can be bought here so don’t wait any longer.
