BET celebrated icons in the fields of music, literature, entertainment, media, and education at BET Honors, which aired during Black History Month.

Taped last month in Washington, D.C., the 6th annual event honored Oscar winner Halle Berry, the legendary Chaka Khan, music executive and entrepreneur Clarence Avant, spiritual educator T.D. Jakes, and Olympic gold medalist Lisa Leslie, with musical tributes from Brandy, Alicia Keys, Erykah Badu, and more.

A barefoot Brandy staged the first televised performance of her new single “Without You” with dancer Anthony Burrell. Alicia Keys honored Halle Berry with “Brand New Me,” while Erykah Badu and Ledisi paid homage to Chaka Khan. Plus, Mint Condition serenaded Clarence Avant with their hits “Breakin’ My Heart (Pretty Brown Eyes)” and “Slo Woman.”

Check out some of the highlights below.

@kesha, That’s definitely her live vocals. The show was pretaped and the audio levels might have been placed higher (for the whole show) but she’s singing live, completely.

Lol at that shade. Brandy slayed so much that some are pulling the lip-synching card. Laughable! She’s not the Vocal Bible for nothing. She’s your favourite singer’s favourite singer

Well Alicia is definitely close enough to perfect for me. That was so very beautiful and even though she is feeling “brand new”, she is still the same beautiful person to me.

Brandy was sooo good. Erykah did well too. I forget that she has range because a lot of her singles are subtle.

Loved seeing Mint Condition too. Great performers.
