September 14th, 2007 at 6:53 am
don’t forget the BET Hip Hop Awards is in ATL so to me this list is irrevelant.. BET Hip Hop Awards in ATL is catered to the South…
September 14th, 2007 at 7:00 am
What kinda dumb ass categories are these?
September 14th, 2007 at 7:07 am
bushwick is right, TI was garbage as fuck.
anyway, why cant BET just have a regular awards show? there arent enough rappers to have just a hip hop awards show. it seems like it will be pretty lame to me. the same niggas getting nominated over and over again, there is no variety.
September 14th, 2007 at 7:13 am
Album of the year should be intresting…. TI should not win that that award. but if he doesnt he can rap about it for his next album… “album of the year BET award or not”
September 14th, 2007 at 7:13 am
Rookie Of The Year
Rich Boy
Plies
Hurricane Chris
Lil Boosie
Mims
can you say lol?
September 14th, 2007 at 7:15 am
I pissed right with y’ll…why my baby The Game was nominated for anything…hell he betta then 50 cent, TI, Weezy, Ludacris and nevermind…..but I’m saying my baby can spit that ish no that shet like 50 cent…LMAO
September 14th, 2007 at 7:16 am
*wasn’t
September 14th, 2007 at 7:18 am
TI v TIP has to be the worst album of the year.
50 should win hustler of the year, pontiac, absolute100, vitamin water deals, and this on a ‘bad year’ for him lol.
How is Common among best perfomaers? lol
Id be dammned, looks like Khaked may win Dj of the year
I get Money track of the year no doubt
September 14th, 2007 at 7:21 am

Best Colabo – UGK & Outkast
Live – T.I.
Video – 50 Cent
MVP – Jay-Z
Track – 50 Cent
Hustla – Jay-Z
CD – Jay-Z
Thats a rap!
September 14th, 2007 at 7:30 am
How many times does this need to be said:
50 DID NOT GET 400MIL FROM VITAMIN WATER. IT WAS A RUMOR!
This whole show looks wack. I mean to much niggerish shit. The only thing I can see making sense is:
Best hip hop dance – Soulja boy (this song is still going strong)
Track of the year – Party like a rock star (They kept playing it over and over)
Hustler of the year – Jay-z(named Forbes #1 hip hop money maker
MVP award might go to Kanye West (if he stays in the lead with sales.)
September 14th, 2007 at 7:41 am
man nas only got one damn nomination?? man fuck b.e.t and fuck all the niggas dat an’t got no love for a (living) legend that an’t go make me stop watching it or nothing but still tho, no offense but how jay get all these categories (dat he an’t go win) for that horrible let down of a album but yet they shit on nas why why why ….man i’m done for get wait to his next album come they all gon be on his dick watch just watch
September 14th, 2007 at 7:43 am
t2 how the hell is jay-z gon win all them categories? he an’t winnig shit , either way it go jigga an’t go show up anyway
September 14th, 2007 at 7:45 am
Hustla of the year is 50 cent
The man was mad that Vitamin water deal, he got a Pontiac deal, he got an Absolute100 deal, the Youtube deal,
no one is touching him for that one,
HOW WAS LIL WAYNE NOMINATED FOR HUSTLA OF THE YEAR??
HE DESERVES KISS OF THE YEAR WITH BABY.
September 14th, 2007 at 7:50 am
TIvsTIP is not the album of the year but is not wack, c’mon stop sucking 50’s dick, u all haters, only because TI is form the south, he does his thing u like or not
September 14th, 2007 at 7:52 am
wayne nominated for 6 awards. I hope he wins atleast 3 or all of them, cuse to me hes beating everyone in ech category, especially lyricist of the year and the hustlers award.
September 14th, 2007 at 7:52 am
you know BET is gonna kiss up to kanye since he had that ref with MTV so expect kanye to win at least 2 to 3 awards
September 14th, 2007 at 8:01 am
THIS SHIT IS A JOKE THIS CAN’T BE FOREAL ESPECIALLY THE ROOKIE OF THE YEAR CATAGORY.C’MON PLIES,MIMS,REALLY CMON.TI LYRACIST CMON ONLY TIGHT DELIVERY,NO LRYICS AT ALL.MVP IS 50 CENT.LIL WAYNE IS LIKE STEVE NASH AND DIRK HE MAY DO GOOD DURING THE SEASON (OTHER PEOPLES SONGS)BUT WHEN IT COMES TO THE PLAYOFFS (HIS ALBUM)HE LOOSES,FIRST ROUND LOL
AT LEAST BRING IT TO LA OR NEW YORK.I DON’T LIKE RAP ANYMORE BUT I LOVE ME SOME HIP HOP…FIGURE IT OUT……….LE MONSTER IS STILL ON MARS.
September 14th, 2007 at 8:01 am
Hustler of the Year…HOV
Lyricist of the year…HOV
CD of the Year…Nas/HOV
MVP of the Year…Kanye West/HOV
…I went to this event last year…I hope they improved it cuz the shit was bootleg as hell and half the artist that were suppose attend, didn’t…But it was their first annual, so maybe that’s why…
…I doubt HOV, Kanye West, Nas and 50 are gonna show up…but, most south based rappers/new rappers (from the south) will (like last year)…I hope they improved the shit…
September 14th, 2007 at 8:17 am
LMAO.
WHAT IS “Hustler Of The Year”???? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH BET LOST, goddamn.. this is so rediculous.
September 14th, 2007 at 8:17 am

T.I better not win LOTY
Timberland better win POTY
Best Hip-Hop Movie?!? wtf kind of category is that? And what’s the difference between MVP of the year and Lyricist of the year??
This award show is a joke, and will suck like last year.
September 14th, 2007 at 8:20 am
Best Hip-Hop Movie
“Gridiron Gang”
“Idlewild”
“Shottas”
“Smokin’ Aces”
