The award show that celebrates the most talented and successful names in the hip-hop industry is just around the corner. Fortunately, there’s a way everyone can watch the award show whether they’re in or outside the US. With a VPN, hip-hop fans all over the world can tune in and catch up with all the performances live.

A Virtual Private Network is a technology that creates a secure private network between two hosts. It allows you to connect to another secure server from your location, and as a result, your IP address will be change. You will obtain the IP address of the server located in the country you connected to. From this point on, you can access all of that country’s content as if you are a native. Follow these steps to unblock the BET Network and stream the BET Hip Hop Awards 2018 live:

1. Sign up with a VPN provider (preferably ExpressVPN).
2. Download and install the VPN app on the device you wish to stream BET on.
3. Launch the application.
4. Connect to an American server to get an American IP address.
5. Head over to the BET network website or app and sign in using cable provider account.
6. Stream the Hip Hop event live outside the US.

ExpressVPN‘s service in the US replaces your IP address with an American one. That way you can unblock BET or any other American based channel or website. This provider’s security standards prevent any third party interferences, which means no one can find out about your bypassing and unblocking activities.  For more information on other VPN service providers, check out the table below.
