Givēon Performs “Lie Again” At 2022 BET Awards Following Mic Mishap

Givēon took to the 2022 BET Awards stage to serenade the audience with some of his best tracks like “Heartbreak Anniversary” and his latest, “Lie Again,” from his sophomore album Give or Take. 

Starting off a bit shaky, Givēon could clearly be seen trying to adjust his earpiece to hear himself. However, he quickly redeemed himself as he transitioned into his newest track showcasing his studio-quality voice. Spinning on a revolving mini-stage, Givēon–accompanied by a live band–belted his most sultry notes to show why he is the voice that keeps on giving.

In a tweet, Givēon spoke (seemingly joked) on what he thought about his performance.

He tweeted, “Not @BET sabotaging my mic …… @LilNasX I Get It!!!!”

Lil Nas X had his own run-in with BET following the announcements of the 2022 BET Awards nominees, that he wasn’t a part of.  LNX responded to BET with a diss song called, “Late To The Party” which garnered a response from the Viacom Network.
