NTWRK Teams Up With BET To Celebrate BET Awards And College Hill: Celebrity Edition’s Return To BET+

One-Of-A-Kind Letterman Jacket And Art Print/NFT Bundle Celebrating Black Excellence Available To Drop Exclusively On The NTWRK App

Leading livestream shopping platform NTWRK is teaming up with BET to release a one-of-a-kind, upscale HBCU Letterman jacket and art print/ NFT bundle in celebration of College Hill: Celebrity Edition’s return to BET+. The customizable letterman jacket and the art print/NFT bundle honor the impact HBCUs have had across communities and are inspired by legacy, destiny and pride, which is showcased throughout the designs. 

For each of the three art prints, there will be a corresponding NFT, and the letterman jacket, designed by BET, is customizable, allowing anyone to add their own HBCU patch and make it their own. Promoting community and Black Excellence in tandem with the BET Awards, the drops will be available via a special drawing (opened June 20th) on the NTWRK app for $1 + shipping on June 24th (art print/ NFT bundle) and June 27th (letterman jacket). 

The NTWRK x BET partnership will come to life via a special livestream shopping episode hosted by NTWRK in-studio hosts Rodney Rikai and Eutel Wallace, who will give viewers a sneak peak of the House of BET.
