BET Hip Hop Awards winners
- TV Show
It was another big year for Chris Brown at the BET Hip Hop Awards. Only this time around, the rapper/singer wasn't in attendance — though he tweeted a thank you message.
Brown, who appeared via a pre-recorded video (watch below), won three awards, alongside his "Look At Me Now" collaborators Busta Rhymes and Lil Wayne, including Best Hip-Hop Video, People's Champ Award, and the Reese's Perfect Combo Award (which, as it turns out, is not so much about candy, as it is musical collaborations.)
Busta Rhymes, who was named the winner of the Sweet 16: Best Featured Verse, accepted the trophies on their behalf. Lil Wayne, who was also absent from last night's show, walked away with two of his own BET Hip Hop Awards for both Best Live Performer and Lyricist of the Year. Click below for Brown's video and a complete list of the night's winners, including awards for Jay-Z, Kanye West, and Waka Flocka Flame.
Hosted by actor/comedian Mike Epps and emceed by rapper Da Brat, the event, which featured performances by Wiz Khalifa, Lupe Fiasco, Big Sean, DMX, Young Jeezy, Heavy D, and T.I., awarded breakout star Nicki Minaj with the MVP of the Year and the Made-You-Look Award, while LL Cool J was presented with I Am Hip Hop Award for the iconic role he's played in the world of hip hop.
