BET’s Hip Hop Awards biggest hit was the three-part cypher series featuring rappers like Eminem, Wale, Nicki Minaj, Black Thought of The Roots, Mos Def, Joe Budden, KRS-One, and others. While the net has been buzzing about Eminem’s performance (see for yourself), Joe Budden also verbally-annihilated DJ Premier’s instrumental during the pre-taped segment of the pre-taped BET Hip Hop Awards.

Founder and Executive Editor of Hiptics. I launched Hiptics in 2008. I spent the last 4 years at Denison University where I hosted a weekly hip-hop radio show on 91.1 WDUB (one of America's Top 20 Most Popular College Radio Stations). I also served as Public Relations Chairman, Program Director, and Webmaster of the station. I genuinely love hip-hop, and have been involved in nearly every aspect of the culture starting with selling my own music in Middle School (haha, true story). I won the Culture Jam Freestyle Battle at Denison both times I participated. I brought Wiz Khalifa, EbGb, and D.Julien to campus for a free Hiptics show in January 2010. I've interviewed everyone from Bone Thugs-N-Harmony to the CEO of Death Row Records. I've DJ'd for Wiz Khalifa and Sam Adams, as well as at countless parties and campus events. There's a lot more to be said, but I don't want to be THAT guy. My point is this: I'm not just another one of these hip-hop bloggers. If the Internet didn't exist, I'd still be in the game.

Black Thought killed everybody
Both were sick, ill put them with mos def and maybe black thought as just about tied for the best. As tight as everyone was, eminem was the one that made me laugh and had my jaw dropping with some of his lines.
