(CNN) — The BET Awards will go on as scheduled on Monday night amid ongoing protests against immigration raids continue in Los Angeles, California.
“BET remains committed to the safety of our guests and staff,” a spokesperson for BET told CNN in a statement. “We are working closely with LAPD and monitoring the situation.”
Los Angeles has been the site of unrest over the weekend as protests broke out against recent immigration enforcement action in the city. President Donald Trump ordered National Guard troops to the region, against the wishes of both Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and California Governor Gavin Newsom.
The BET Awards are one of the network’s biggest nights. Superstar rapper Kendrick Lamar leads nominees with ten nods, including album of the year for “GNX“ and video of the year for his viral hit, “Not Like Us.”
Lamar is followed by the man he engaged in an epic hip-hop beef with, Drake, as well as fellow rappers Doechii, Future and GloRilla, who have six nominations each.
Comedic actor Kevin Hart is hosting.
The event is scheduled to take place at 5 p.m. PT at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles, blocks away from several areas where protests have been taking place.
The following is a list of the nominations:
