Ground-breaking cyphers, socio-political spoken word, hip hop icons, and a comedian-turned-rapper. The BET Hip Hop Awards showcased the hottest in the industry.

The night featured unforgettable live performances by Desiigner, T.I., Young M.A., Big K.R.I.T., Lecrae, and more. Long Beach’s finest, Uncle Snoop Dogg, received the “I Am Hip Hop” Award.”
