BET issued an apology after Usher's Lifetime Achievement Award speech largely went unaired due to sound issues at the 2024 BET Awards.

"We extend our sincere apologies to Usher as we couldn't be more grateful for his participation in Culture's Biggest Night. Fans can catch his full uninterrupted speech across BET platforms and tonight's encore on BET," the statement concluded. This meant that a majority of his speech went unheard by viewers and was only appreciated by those in attendance. However, the portions of his speech that were broadcast were moving, inspirational, and a call for forgiveness and acceptance.
"My father was a product of that. He made a lot of decisions. He made a lot of choices, and one that probably hurt and helped me at the same time was to stay away," Usher continued."That's part of the reason why I say this is the year of the father, where all the fathers have got to stand up for their sons and daughters and be the man that they need to be for them."
