After leading the pack with 11 nominations, Beyoncé won big at the 2016 MTV VMAs last night (August 28). Queen Bey won eight trophies at the annual affair, including Best Female Video for “Hold Up” (so no need for Kanye West to intervene this year) and Breakthrough Long Form Video for Lemonade.
Beyoncé’s lead single for her album, “Formation,” won several awards, including Video of the Year and Best Pop Video.
Drake won the Moonman trophy for Best Hip Hop Video with “Hotline Bling.”

Can this site be renamed something else? This post and many others lately have not been remotely relative to Hip Hop. For example, this article in particular. Beyoncé only influence for hip hop is that she is married to Jay-Z. What other spouses are you guys reporting on other than her and that succubus Kim Kardashian West. Where are the in depth editorials such as how Hip Hop has changed or how different influences have affected the Hip Hop community. Most of these articles now on this site are straight from TMZ.
At least go and make an R&B or POP DX site and get this bullshit off of this site.
Beyonce has being doing the same shit for more that 10 years, can the people get tired of that same tone of voice and booty shaking bullshit? im sick of it already, is like yes she looks good but as a Singer is boring
Ah yes the people who run the entertainment industry awards their puppet for inciting race war.
100% agree
lol beyonce trying to become a black panther now to make her shitty pop romance songs sound edgy.
Youtube Max B green gain
As she should with her fine ass
She’s so overhyped and overrated. All those VMA awards and she still can’t conceive a child. Man, some queen she is. Too bad people waste their time idolizing her like she’s a demigod, yet she’s infertile lol.
