Each artist brought their unique style and flair, adding to the vibrant night that is celebrated at the BET Hip Hop Awards.

The star-studded awards show hosted by Fat Joe (once again) also paid homage to the legendary Marley Marl, the recipient of the prestigious I Am Hip Hop Award. This special tribute featured none other than LL Cool J and Rakim, two titans of the hip hop industry. Their performance was a moving tribute to a trailblazer who has left an indelible mark on the genre.

Additionally, the night saw a retrospective honoring DJ Drama, with T.I., Jeezy, Lil Jon, and Fabolous taking part in the celebration. DJ Drama's contribution to hip hop culture was acknowledged in style, underscoring the significance of DJs in shaping the sound of the genre.
