Rapper Three winner of BET 'One Shot'

On the finale of BET 'One Shot' the final three Justin Freeman, Doja and Three had one last shot to compete for $100,000 and a record deal. Female rapper Remy Ma was the celebrity judges for the finals. 

Justin Freeman was up first and he brought some conscious flavor with a catchy hook and powerful wordplay. Dora moved the crowd with her diverse creativity and dressed in all black swag. Three who performed last delivered a catchy hook that the crowd gravitated too instantly. Three who was dressed like what some would perceive as Jesus, blessed the stage with his impeccable verses and the memorable hook "I Been In This Game For Too Long, It's Gon Pay Off". He put on a show as if he was in a concert. Three went hard for what he wanted and it definitely paid off!

Congratulations Three!
