Things that make me happy... BET Hip Hop Awards Cyphers

Things that make me happy... BET Hip Hop Award Cyphers - 2011 edition (now airing on BET)

Okay sure it is annoying that each year they make up new categories that make very little sense. But the show is still worth a watch.

Is hip hop dead? Nah! For 2 hours once a year BET feature veterans and new rappers on best segment of any award show on TV... The Cypher.  From the DJ in the background to the street feel of the set, this reminds me of raps hey day. Yo MTV Rap style...

So for the real hip hop lovers... check out the rhyme.

Eminem Group (Would have to be the master of this... Consistently great flows every year)

Ludacris and Busta Group (My favorite... Busta gave a full dissertation on this one).


Estelle Group

Chris Brown Group (Chris Breezy letting of some steam)
Rick Ross Group

BOB Group



Most Rapper Representing: Atlanta. But what is always fun to see is the diversity of sounds, flows and people in these cyphers, women, latino, french, even a disable rapper... BET is reaching out.

Which was your favorite?
What was the best verse?
