The BET Hip Hop Awards are back.
Many of music’s biggest names gathered at the Cobb Energy Centre in Atlanta last Friday, Sept. 30 to celebrate the latest achievements in hip-hop. This year’s edition, broadcasted Tuesday night, was hosted by Fat Joe and had performances from Lil’ Kim, the Wu-Tang Clan, David Banner, Dead Prez, Remy Ma, Three 6 Mafia, and more on the bill. Pusha-T and Malice wound up taking the stage, as did Best Breakthrough Hip-Hop Artist winner GloRilla, Kodak Black, EST Gee and Young Jeezy, Bleu and French Montana, N.O.R.E. and Armani White, plus Joey Badass, Jadakiss, Fivio Foreign, and Moneybagg Yo.
The 2022 nominees were announced several weeks ago, with Drake and Kanye West leading the pack with 14 and 10 nods, respectively. The two competed against each other in a number of categories, such as Hustler of the Year, Best Live Performer, and Best Hip-Hop Album of the Year—Drake for Certified Lover Boy and Ye for Donda. Kendrick Lamar was next in line with nine nods for his work in the Mr. Morale era.
When all was said and done, K-Dot took home the most wins with six. Drake tied with himself to win—twice?—for Sweet 16: Best Featured Verse with his contributions to Jack Harlow’s “Churchill Downs” and Future’s Tems-featuring “Wait for U,” which also got Best Collaboration.
Ye went 0 for 10.
