Kevin Hart wasted no time lighting up the 2025 BET Awards stage on Monday (June 9) with a sharp-edged monologue that took aim at Kanye West, Diddy and Cardi B, mixing pop culture jabs with real-time drama.
“Oh s###, it’s Kanye,” Hart said, pretending to read from his phone. “Yep, he says he’s out front; he’s waiting for somebody to invite him in.”
Hart added, “Hey! Don’t do it. We all saw the movie Sinners, don’t let his ass in here, so he could bite somebody, so he can bite Playboi Carti again, okay?”
He followed up with, “Nobody let Kanye in, no! Not tonight!”
“We all saw the movie Sinners… Don't let [Ye] in so he can bite Playboi Carti, again”

The joke referenced the ongoing fallout between West and Playboi Carti, which began earlier this year when Carti dropped his third album, MUSIC, without including West.
Things got worse in May when West released “Alive” with NBA YoungBoy—a track Carti claimed was stolen.
Hart also took a swipe at Diddy, referencing the mogul’s alleged “freak offs” without naming him directly.
“No after parties tonight. Take your a#### home after this; that’s why I did this on a Monday,” Hart said. “People gotta go to work tomorrow… That’s where s### gets slippery, at them g###### afterparties. We’re learning a lot about people, ain’t we?”
Then came Cardi B and her boyfriend Stefon Diggs, who were recently caught in a swirl of gossip after a yacht video surfaced showing Diggs handing out a small pink bag, prompting online speculation about “pink cocaine.”
Hart didn’t hold back: “No yachts, no boats. Cardi B, no pink stuff. What the f### was that? None of that stuff. Everybody’s gonna get hit tonight. We’re live. It’s gonna be a good time.”
