Chris Brown kicked off the BET Awards ’13 with an electrifying performance. Dressed in all black, the R&B superstar opened with “Fine China” and performed his new single “Don’t Think They Know” as a photo of Aaliyah’s face appeared on the screen behind him.

If that wasn’t enough, Nicki Minaj came flying over the audience at Nokia Theatre to debut their new collaboration off his upcoming album X, due July 16.
