Scott's commitment to empowering his community is equally impressive. His philanthropic efforts, particularly in his hometown of Houston, have provided vital support to education and arts initiatives.

The BET Hip Hop Awards ceremony will take place on the 8th October 2024 and will be broadcasted live on BET. The event promises to be an electrifying celebration of hip-hop's finest, with Scott's honor serving as a highlight.
