Compton rapper Kendrick Lamar has once again proven that 2024 is his! The lyricist went home with eight awards at this year’s BET Hip Hop Awards.
When Lamar named the title of his hit diss record, “Not Like Us,” he wasn’t lying.
The awards show was held in Las Vegas this year and all bets were on him having a big night. His biggest wins were Hip Hop Artist of the Year, Lyricist of the Year, and Song of the Year for the Drake diss track, also winning the Impact Track for the scathing song. He also won Best Hip Hop Video, and Best Collaboration for the song that started perhaps the biggest hip-hop battle, Metro Boomin and Future’s “Like That” in which he was the featured artist, along with the Sweet 16: Best Featured Verse. The Video Director of the Year was won alongside his partner, Dave Free.
Performers for the night included host Fat Joe, Bossman DLow, and Juicy J. Teyana Taylor and Tyla presented the “I Am Hip Hop” Award to Travis Scott. There was also a tribute for Rich Homie Quan, who died earlier this year.
