In Case You Missed It: 2010 BET Hip Hop Awards

Sandra Rose October 13, 2010

A lot of people have an opinion of this year’s BET Hip Hop Awards, which aired last night. The awards took place in Atlanta’s Civic Center 2 weeks ago. Even before the first award was handed out, calls, texts and tweets were sent out by those in attendance complaining about everything from the budget (‘there was none this year’), the host, Mike Epps (‘he was weak’), the schizophrenic ravings of Nicki Minaj, and more.

Even my dentist, Dr. Joe Wolf, called me to voice his opinion on the lack of talent, creativity or originality with today’s Hip Hop artists. “Is it the music industry [that’s garbage], or the artists themselves?” he wondered aloud.

Personally, I thought the Cypher features were the best parts of the show. My favorite line was delivered by rapper Royce Da 5’9:

“The day I stop dropping the hotness will be the day I start driving a Datsun with 50 Tyson and Antoine Dodson.”

What did you think about this year’s BET Hip Hop Awards?

Run, Cube & sons.

Kanye, Common & crew.

Souljah boy (runs and hides)

Nicki’s wigs are always crooked :/ And why was Diamond in the cypher with those weak rhymes “Nine months had a baby no stitches….32 flavors” Uhm Diamond I had a baby with no stitches either Swizz throwing sneakers in the air, Trina all in her feelings Kelly showing her tiddays, Nicki with her schizo self, she got a cousin that be on here named Choco

After Kelly and Nelly presented I turned the damn TV. That was 15 minutes into the broadcast. I saw only 10 celebrities in the front row and tons of local rachet seat fillers. I heard tickets were going for $10. Hated it!
FreeToSpeakUp

Oh and Mike Epps was just trying too hard #thatsall
MissHarlem

Someone needed to slap Wacka with his own damn camera chain for that dumb azz idea of a performance. Was he serious so he truly thought that would be effective on TV and at an awards
Nicki looked nice last night though. Less is more but I get what she doing regardless.

@Free

“Im a mouse in a room full of elephants”

What in thee h3ll???
FreeToSpeakUp

@ DC

Is that why so many peoples mothers (50+ women) were in the crowd.
Shauny

Mike Epps is NOT funny. How he let the Dougie boys treat him when he was supposed to be roasting him.

All of the performances were wack. I love BMF though. Rick Ross shyt is tight. I take that back, I like that BOB stayed true to himself.

The cyphers were the best part of the show. Most of them were pretty good saves Cubic Zircornic. The GOOD Music and Father and Son cypher was hot as was dude with that belt in the first cypher, Mickey someone in the Busta one, Royce just SHYTTED on everyone else in his cypher. I wish Joe Budden was in his. They are really slept on.

Oh, and Nicki irks my soul #thatisall

the award show was a good as to be expected… people are expecting the “wow factor” … just accept it for what it is or find a new style of music.. that simple! the cypher was hott as always…loved diggy! Diamond could’ve been just a little more enthused. B.O.B was the truth!!!

thing is as bad as you may think the BET awards are they are the biggest awards dedicated exclusively to hiphop. and if you dont watch them they cant sell to advertisers and get any better. if they not getting the advertising money then they cant put more money into the show and thus it either gets completely canceled or the quality never improves. even if you watch it just to make fun of what you see you are still watching it and thus increase the chances of it getting better next year and them getting the big dogs such as Jay, Kanye, Eminem to perform as they see it as something important in hiphop and not just a lil show nobody watches.

Soooooooooooooooooo why does Nikki have a mirror in her hand??…am I the only person to notice that and wonder why??…

I must admit that is a pretty pic of Nicki..now if she would stop with the personality disorder gimmick…

I’ve given up on watching this show seriously & just take glimpses during commercial breaks of other shows.
