Don Toliver Electrifies BET Awards with 'E85' and 'Body'

Don Toliver brought a high-tech spectacle to the BET Awards stage, performing his tracks "E85" and "Body." The energetic debut featured a live guitarist and dancers, all presented with a black-and-white visual effect. Toliver himself wore an all-white ensemble, accessorized with a platinum chain and cross.

His performances showcased songs from his latest album, "Octane," which was released earlier this year and boasts collaborations with artists like Yeat, Rema, and Travis Scott. Toliver explained that the album title, "Octane," symbolizes increased fuel consumption and intensity, drawing a parallel to his previous work "Hardstone Psycho."

The Texas-bred artist is recognized for his contributions to hip-hop, earning a nomination for Best Male Hip-Hop at the 2026 BET Awards. He competes in this category alongside other prominent artists, while Cardi B leads the overall nominations for the ceremony.
