If I could describe the 2009 Bet Hip Hop Awards in one word I would say Gucci. Rapper, Gucci Mane made several appearances on tonight’s Hip Hop Awards. I must say tonight was his time to shine. Even Soulja Boy’s performance was centered around Gucci; both the fashion label and the rapper. I would have to say that BET was very successful at putting the spotlight on Atlanta’

s hip hop and rap artists. With Gucci Mane, Soulja Boy and The Dream making at least 2 appearances on stage for performances, it was clear where the award show was hosted.

It was very entertaining to see Snoop Dogg back on stage in his Parental Advisory jeans. And who knew Kid and Play would make an appearance doing their famous dance on stage together to present an award. Goodie Mob gave us all a taste of what Hip Hop in Atlanta really is from their lyrical flow on to their classic singles and their unique fashion sense. Who can forget Jay-Z and Jeezy’s performance? They make a great collaboration.

Mike Epps did an extraordinary job as the host. Unlike some other comedians who host an award show, he was able to entertain, keep the audiences interest and bring live to the show in between award presentations and performances. Nice choice of host this year BET!

Ice Cube was the perfect honoree of the 2009 Bet Hip Hop Awards’ I Am Hip Hop Award. Ice Cube’

s influence on Hip Hop music as a rapper, accomplishments in the community, success as a actor and in his own film business make for all the reasons why he deserved this award.

Missy Elliot and Fatima Robinson, who both coincidentally worked close Aaliyah, also deserved their honors for their influence in the Hip Hop culture. These women especially made an impact by being a couple of the very few success stories for women in this genre of music. Missy is the only woman in Hip Hop to have 6 platinum albums. Her creativity is displayed in her different sense of music and the expression of her songs in her distinct videos. Fatima is one of the best choreographers Hip Hop has known. She creatively put together the most entertaining and trendsetting dances seen in the videos and concerts in artists such as Brandy, Busta Rhymes, Aaliyah, Michael Jackson, Mary J. Blige, R. Kelly, Prince, OutKast and more.g others.

The BET Hip Hop Awards always seems to surprise it’

s audience with something completely different and new each year. Keep a close watch, you may never know what to expect in the upcoming years.

Kid ‘n Play was a hip-hop and comedy duo from New York City that was popular in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The duo comprised Christopher “Kid” Reid and Christopher “Play” Martin reached their peak after putting out there hit movies House Party – 2 – 3. I was told next year marks the 20th anniversary of “ House Party” films and the two are now looking over roles in what would be house party 5… They are planing to throw parties all across the country to re-promote the film which will be coming back to limited theaters across the country … Me giving my 2 cent I think they might need to give it up.. P.S. I didn’t know that movie was that old (House Party 1990) … Damn I’m Old…

Lewis

Over the weekend, CAU had their homecoming celebration, where all of my friends, fraternity brothers, and serority sisters (shout out to the Men of Alpha Phi Alpha and Men of Kappa Kappa Psi Band Frat…)  came together to show love. It was quite moving to see some of the people I went to school with old, parental, and fat as hell. Emmanuel Lewis, Clark Atlanta Alumni, was also in attendance to show his love and support.  Best known for having played the title character in the 1980s’television sitcom Webster. Lewis graduated from Clark Atlanta University in 1997. Shout out to cakes by Coco, whose cake donations were greatly appreciated by the Clark Atlanta band. 

 

If you are wondering if CAU won the game just know that everyone that goes and went to CAU is a winner and that makes up for any games lost… LOL … But we did lose 6  to 30 something but who keeps count…
