SWV also performed a medley of hits, including songs from their 1992 debut album It’s About Time like “I’m So Into You” and their signature power ballad “Weak,” which even had Halle Berry fanning out. The Oscar-winning actress tuned in for the event, writing in the comments, “Love all the ladies, thank you for making my weekend beautiful.”
It was a night of celebration—for those here and those we have lost. SWV introduced their song “When You Cry” and shared the impactful way the track took on a deeper meaning and garnered new fans following the death of Kim Porter at age 47 in 2018. “For some reason, ‘When You Cry’ was added to a video of her and it was a beautiful video,” Taj recalled. “And the song just took off. So tonight, we just wanna pay homage to Kim. We miss you. We love you.”
Lelee chimed in to extend the dedication, adding, “And all of the fallen soldiers, like, everybody that we’ve lost recently. We’ve lost DMX. We’ve lost Black Rob. Just so many unfortunate things have transpired. Andre Harrell. So, all of the pioneers in R&B music and hip-hop, we just wanna dedicate this song to everybody tonight.”
