It’s lit! We have a full list of winners from last nights highly celebrated 2016 BET Hip Hop Awards. Of course, BET is known for their lit performances, and their traditional rap cyphers. This year BET had the honor of bringing DJ Khaled our Snapchat King to the forefront to host the event, and he made sure everyone knew he had the keys. From Snoop Dogg being an honoree and giving his highlighted speech, ATL’s favorable king TI performance, and various segments honoring the Black Lives Matter movement, this was most certainly a night to remember.
