BET Hip Hop Awards 2020: Everything to Know About the Star-Studded Event

DaBaby leads nominations this year with 12 nods, Roddy Ricch has 11 while Drake and Megan Thee Stallion are also top contenders with 8 potential wins each

It's that special time of year again!

The 2020 BET Hip Hop Awards will air Wednesday night at 9 p.m. EST on BET, BET Her, VH1 and MTV2. Viewers can also catch the ceremony on TV streaming services: Sling TV, AT&T TV Now, Philo and YouTube TV.

The 15th annual award show is a star-studded event honoring some of the biggest artists of hip hop.

In 2019, female rap legend Lil' Kim was recognized as the I am hip hop icon of the year. Breakout star Megan Thee Stallion took home the trophy for hot ticket performer. Travis Scott won the award for album of the year for his hit record Astroworld —  he was also named video director of the year. JAY-Z won the hustler of the year award. Cardi B snagged the made-you-look award. And the late Nipsey Hussle was posthumously honored with the BET Hip Hop award for MVP of the year.

Here's everything to know about the 2020 Hip Hop Awards!

Emcees Karlous Miller, DC Young Fly and Chico Bean — of the 85 South Comedy Show — are the evening's host

In their own series, the dynamic trio has proven that they know how to host a show. They sit with various stars from Busta Rhymes to former Brooklyn Nets guard Iman Shumpert during each episode of the 85 South Comedy Show.

Master P is this year's I am hip hop award recipient 

Iconic rap star and producer Master P — also Romeo Miller's dad — will receive the biggest honor of the night. Master P (né Percy Robert Miller) is being awarded for his immense contribution to hip hop culture over his nearly 30-year career.

He founded his label No Limit Records in the early '90s and signed artists including Snoop Dogg. Master P has since sold more than 75 million albums. The music executive, 50, has produced eight films, written and directed six and made appearances in movies including Gone In 60 Seconds, Dark Blue and Hollywood Homicide. 

In 2013, the mogul was inducted into the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame, making him the first hip hop artist honoree. He won the American Music Award for favorite rap/hip hop artist in 1999.

Los Angeles Dodgers • Atlanta Braves • National Leag

Baseball's first fans of 2020 see Dodgers-Braves NLCS opener ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Scott McIlroy reached out with his left hand as a batting practice home run clanged off a railing and hit him in the palm, the ball popping in the air before settling back into his grip as he held a cell phone in his right hand. Count the Texas resident and Los Angeles Dodgers fan among the first in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season to catch a pre-game souvenir — and among the first ticket buyers to see live baseball in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series on Monday night. Major League Baseball said it was selling 11,500 tickets per game at Globe Life Field for the series between the Dodgers and Atlanta Braves and plans a similar allotment at the same ballpark when it hosts the first neutral-site World Series starting Oct. 20. McIlroy got a call from a friend knowing the longtime Dodgers fan would want to make the two-hour drive to the Dallas area. “We were wondering what the mixture ...

Bob Newhart

Comedy legend Bob Newhart Turner Classic Movies host Ben Mankiewicz asked comedian Bob Newhart, "Do you know that you were profoundly influential?" "Not  profoundly ," he replied.   "All right, just influential?" "That's it, I'm not taking this anymore, all right? I'm leaving …" We start with a word of warning: Do not try to flatter Bob Newhart. A pioneer of observational humor, the comedian has imparted his deadpan delivery on award-winning comedy albums and classic TV sitcoms.   CBS News Mankiewicz spoke to Newhart last week at the L.A. home he shares with his wife, Ginny. "You're one of these typical Hollywood players, woman after woman, how long have you and Ginny been married?" "57 years," Newhart replied. "Why do you think that is?" "Laughter. There's something about laughter, and the longevity of a marriage." While the world has changed a great deal since he burst onto the scene i...

Dexter

‘Dexter’: Showtime Revives Serial Killer Drama As Limited Series, Michael C. Hall & Clyde Phillips Return Showtime Dexter  is back to his blood-splattering ways after  Showtime  ordered a new limited-series revival of the long-running serial-killer drama. Michael C. Hall , who starred as the title character in the 2006-13 series, is back along with showrunner  Clyde Phillips . The premium cable network has handed the series a 10-part run that is set to go into production in early 2021 with a tentative premiere date of fall 2021. The original followed Dexter Morgan, who was a complicated and conflicted blood-spatter expert for the Miami Police Department but moonlighted as a serial killer. Gary Levine, Co-President of Entertainment at Showtime, said that the network was only willing to revisit the “unique” character if they could find a creative take that was “worthy,” and they have “found it”.

Los Angeles Dodgers • Tampa Bay Rays baseball team • World Series

The Latest: Arozarena strikes again, gives Rays 1-0 lead ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The Latest on Game 6 of the World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Tampa Bay Rays (all times local): Randy Arozarena extended his postseason record with his 10th home run and Blake Snell struck out the side as the Tampa Bay Rays took a 1-0 lead after the first inning in Game 6 of the World Series, when a win by the Los Angeles Dodgers would give them their first title since 1988. It was Arozarena’s third homer in the World Series, the first time a rookie has hit three in the Series since Charlie Keller did it for the New York Yankees in 1939. Arozarena became the first rookie to drive in a run in four consecutive Series games. Arozarena went the opposite way in the top of the first, homering to right off rookie right-hander Tony Gonsolin with one out. Austin Meadows then hit a hard single and Brandon Lowe, who homered off Gonsolin in Game 2, walked before Manuel Margot had a flyout and Joey Wendl...

"No Regrets": 19 times people are ruthless and trivial, they don't care at all

  "No Regrets": 19 Times People Were Mercilessly Petty And Didn't Care One Bit "I found an old love letter he had written to me, so I decided to spray it with my perfume, glitter-bomb it, and mail it back to him. I found out later that it actually arrived on his birthday and made a huge mess. It was the perfect revenge, and I don’t regret it one bit." 1.   "I mailed cow poop to my stepdad for Father's Day. No regrets. Growing up, he was extremely abusive, especially to my brother, and would make fun of him for having ADHD and a physical disability. Of course, my mom was pissed. I don't talk to her anymore since she decided to stay with him. But my grandma, who loves her grandkids more than life itself, called me in a fit of tears from laughing. She thought it was  perfect . As long as I have my grandma's approval, I don't feel guilty!" — kwondoaxprincess2 2.   "Coming out to my father was one of the worst experiences of my life. He...

The Voice • Blake Shelton • Gwen Stefani • Kelly Clarkson • Nbc

'The Voice': Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani Face Off Over a Singer in Season 19 Premiere Blake Shelton   and   Gwen Stefani   are happy to be back together on the new season of  The Voice   -- but they're not pulling any punches with each other! The couple wasted no time on Monday's season 19 premiere before they were facing off over a singer. Payge Turner, a 27-year-old crooner from Trinidad and Tobago, got an early chair turn from Blake as she covered The Weeknd's "Call Out My Name," but then Gwen hit her button just before the end of the song. "Why are you doing this to me?!" Blake exclaimed, as John Legend warned the hopeful singer, "You're about to break up America's couple!" Blake did his best to make a case for his team -- pointing out the fact that he turned much earlier than his ladylove -- but ultimately, Payge went for the glitz, girl power and cross-genre experience that Team Gwen had to offer. "I'm always l...
