BET celebrates hip-hop’s prized artists and producers. And the Flash is reborn in the superhero series’ fourth season.

What’s on TV

HIP-HOP AWARDS 8 p.m. on BET. The producer DJ Khaled hosts as the biggest names in hip-hop gather at the Jackie Gleason Theater in Miami Beach, Fla. DJ Khaled and the rappers Kendrick Lamar and Cardi B lead with nine nominations each.

THE FLASH 8 p.m. on the CW. The Season 3 finale of this DC Comics series left fans wondering how Central City would fare without the scientist-turned-superhero Barry Allen (Grant Gustin of “Glee”), known as the Flash. The fourth season opens with Iris (Candice Patton) struggling to cope with the loss of Harrison (Tom Cavanagh) and the possibility of Barry’s death. But when a new villain threatens to wreak havoc on Central City if the Flash doesn’t appear, Cisco (Carlos Valdes) tries to break Barry out of a purgatorylike realm and thrust him back into his superhuman, crime-fighting ways.
