what the fuck is driickey graham
one hit wonder if you can even call snapbacks and tattoos a hit
Congrats!
this website does not deserve any awards until they get some people to can actually write and edit
im pretty sure world star is gonna win if its popularity, but kanye co-signed hiphopdx so i think yall have a shot.
world star must be one of the worst sites ever
the people who run that shit are so illiterate
they post all this offensive shit but for some reason all swear words are censored??? makes no sense to me
How many black folks actually work here? All the fucking Jews who sign there name are goddamn illiterate!!!
Speaking of which, how come Action Bronstein isn’t nominated for a style award?
Or LAUGHTERHOUSE for that matter?
I like the one where Joell plays a gay butcher.
Co-sign that fool Horowitz is the dumbest of them all lol
Go to an Action Bronson show and tell me due isn’t the man. I’ve seen him three times in the last month and his live show is incredible. He comes our pouring shots of grey goose for the whole front rows, shares all his weed with his fans and literally walks through the crowd the entire performance dancing with bitches and passion the mic to the fans. In providence he got the entire crowd to follow him out into the parking lot where he spit a few acapellas, no sound system or anything. When it comes to rocking a crowd, he’s on some Tech N9ne, Red and Meth, Nas type shit and he’s a fucking newcomer!
If you have not seen an Action Bronson show, you need to! Dude fuckin kills it. Until you have, you can’t say shit. I’ve seen everyone from the Roots to Jay-Z to Brother Ali and Lauryn Hill. Bronson is in my top 5 live shows all day. Its not a concert, its a party…

sydney lace is killing allhiphop singlehandidly
i’m with hhdx.
Hope RapRadar wins.
The comment section of this site alone, is the reason it should NEVER win an award..
The comment section is by far THE BEST thing about this site…
Knuckleheads and genius side by side, let the best typist win!!!
HELL NO IT AIN’T BETTER THAN NAHRIGHT COMMENT SECTION
STOP IT
oh i get why this site sucks its down with the mainstream movement one of the greates rap battles in recent hitory just went down but you wont hear about it on this site dx need to see the “LARGE PICTURE”
Honestly you don’t deserve to win. Reviews on this site are wack, not to mention the unlimited hate towards Wu-Tang Clan and its members.
BET is on some bullshit, how 2 chainz is a rookie when he had a major label deal and had 2 albums out (I’m guessing) under the name titty boi with his group player circle?
any sites deserves to win except rapradar
Rap Radar is truly fucking horrendous… Whatever Elliott Wilson did once upon a time the guy is a cheap fucking whore– and shameless too… Even by blog standards the guy is a complete embarrassment… That he’s ARROGANT too is insane!!!
All the comments below are hating on HipHopDx, saying they shouldn’t win. I guess that’s why these people spend so much time on this site commenting, because they don’t like HipHopdx.com? I been coming to this site since 2001 or something like that. It’s been in the game for a long time and has really stepped up in the last couple of years. You may not a agree with album reviews sometimes, but that’s the case with any website. Not all websites have the same writers or points of view as the reader. If hiphopdx.com has never won one of these awards, they deserve it. WSHH puts some garbage on their site and they win.
Maybe HHDX can take some of the Interscope/LAUGHTERHOUSE payola and buy a BET prize?
Best part is all the LAUGHTERHOUSE hype totally backfired: the more people learned about these bums, the less they liked them– and the music of course was horrible but no nobody is rooting for these bums solo either.
This article is about hiphopdx being nominated. not about slaughterhouse, get off they nuts Lol.
Cashin Out – Banger of the muthafuckin year.
What about best Hip Hop dx troll??
That would be me!!
SWAG!!!
Well deserved, this site is the one i visit daily for my hip hop dosis, congrats and greetings from Mexico
