During a sentimental moment, HOT 97 personalities all joined together to pay respects to the late, DJ Kay Slay who sadly passed away earlier this year from COVID complications. In addition to the hosts, The Drama King was celebrated by Papoose, Busta Rhymes, Remy Ma, The LOX, Juelz Santana, and The Lobby Boyz, Jim Jones and Maino.

Roddy Ricch also hit the stage after missing out on his Governor’s Ball performance due to an arrest for criminal possession of a weapon, possession of a large capacity ammunition feeding device and unlawful possession of the weapon. He was released Sunday after the charges were dismissed and he performed alongside Mustard.
