Roddy Ricch brought moody vibes and striking imagery to the 2021 BET Awards on Sunday (June 27) night with a performance of his single “Late at Night.” While the music video for his top 20 Hot 100 hit took him to a Ferris wheel in the night sky, his BET Awards performance found him on an old-timey art deco stage, rocking an all-white suit and flanked by drums, saxophone and an upright bass.
As Ricch descended the white stairs singing about a woman he’s deeply involved with, backup dancers in glittery body suits gyrated around him. The performance ended with Ricch backlit by a glowing pink moon on the stage beneath him, nodding to the werewolf twist at the end of his “Late at Night” video (which itself nods to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”).
