The 15th annual Black Entertainment Television (BET) Hip Hop Awards took place last night (October 27), with Megan Thee Stallion, Roddy Ricch and Travis Scott among the artists who took home gongs.

Last night’s ceremony followed on from June’s BET Awards, which recognised the contributions of African-Americans across the entertainment and sports industries.

Like the BET Awards, the BET Hip Hop Awards were held virtually this year in keeping with coronavirus-imposed restrictions. Karlous Miller, DC Young Fly and Chico Bean hosted proceedings, while 2 Chainz, Ty Dolla $ign and Big Sean were among those performing.

This year saw the separation of the Best Collaboration, Duo or Group award into two distinct categories and the introduction of the Best Live Performer category.

The BET Awards have also dropped its Best Hip-Hop Online Site/App and Hot Ticket Performer categories in favour of new Best Hip Hop Platform and Hip Hop Artist of the Year awards.
