by Benny Franklin

Nipsey Hussle's memorial service sold out in minutes, but that doesn't mean you can't be part of it. 

Today, BET announced that they'll be airing Nipsey's memorial service entirely on BET and BET Digital starting at 1 p.m. EST on Thursday, April 11th. You can watch it on the BET Facebook page.

Marc Lamont Hill and Gia Peppers will host the memorial service.

 

Connie Orlando, Head of Original Programming at BET, had this to say regarding Nipsey's senseless death

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Nipsey Hussle. 

Nipsey is part of the BET family and first appeared on the Network in 2009 in a Hip Hop Awards cypher, we share this loss with his millions of fans around the world. From his insurmountable talent to his commitment to reaching back to underserved communities Nipsey’s kind spirit will be sorely missed. 

We will keep his entire family as well as our BET sister, Lauren London in our thoughts and prayers during this immensely difficult time.
