BET will honor Tyler, the Creator with their newly instituted “Rock The Bells Cultural Influence Award” at the BET Hip Hop Awards on October 5.

LL Cool J will present the award to the Grammy Award-winning rapper, entrepreneur and four-time BET Hip Hop Awards nominee, honoring his impressive cultural contributions, talent and unbounded creativity that has cemented him as one of the most innovative forces in music.

In addition, Tyler, The Creator is nominated in four 2021 BET Hip Hop Award categories: “Best Live Performer,” “Hip Hop Artist of The Year,” “Hip Hop Album of The Year,” and “Producer of The Year.”

“At Rock The Bells part of our mission is to bridge the gap of Hip Hop’s rich history to the present, which is why we are thrilled to team up with BET, a company that has always been at the forefront of Black culture,” said LL Cool J.
