The best acts in Hip-Hop were honoured at the 2015 BET Hip Hop Awards in Atlanta, Georgia which just aired on television last night, and we saw memorable performances from Travis Scott, P Diddy, Rich Homie Quan, Fetty Wap, Future, and many more, not to mention the highly anticipated BET Cypher segment as well.
As for the actual awards themselves though, Kendrick Lamar & Big Sean came away as the night’s big winners with 3 awards each, meanwhile Drake and J Cole followed them with 2 awards, including MVP of the Year. Fetty Wap also made some noise at the awards by winning “track of the year” and “who blew up” awards.
