BET HIP HOP AWARDS TAKE SIN CITY

Some of the biggest names in hip-hop will gather Tuesday night (10/8) for the 2024 BET Hip Hop Awards. Hosted by Fat Joe, the annual ceremony goes down at Drai's Beachclub & Nightclub in Las Vegas. The full broadcast will air on 10/15 at 8pm ET/5pm PT.

Travis Scott will be the recipient of this year's "I Am Hip Hop Award." 2 Chainz, E-40, Three 6 Mafia's Juicy J, Soulja Boy, City Girls' Yung Miami, Trina, GloRilla and BossMan Dlow will be among the many taking the stage.

Megan Thee Stallion leads this year’s nominations with 12 nods, including Lyricist of the Year and Hip Hop Album of the Year (Megan). Kendrick Lamar is close behind at 11 in categories like Best Hip Hop Video ("Not Like Us") and Best Live Performer. Other notable nominees include 21 Savage and 41, who snagged four nods each, and A$AP Rocky, Common & Pete Rock and Sexyy Red, who landed three.

Fans can vote in the DJ of the Year, Producer of the Year and Best Hip Hop Platform categories here. We're taking bets on how many times Travis will shout "skrrt skrrt."
