For the 10th straight year, the 2016 BET Hip Hop Awards solidified their presence of being the authority for current honorees in the rap community.
And like always, the round of cyphers was the biggest draw as several of today’s stars and OGs teamed up for some informal competition. With everything that’s going on in the country, a lot of the statements were created to be political, while some MCs just flossed in their artistry. All in all, it was an incredible display of unique lyricism across the board.
Uncle Snoop Dogg is not some “bitter, old rapper who’s mad because the young MCs is having it” and you shouldn’t be either.
Without further ado, here are the most engaging, exciting and flat-out best punchlines from the 2016 BET Hip Hop Awards lyrics.
