Christmas came early. On last night’s BET Hip-Hop Awards broadcast DJ Premier Mos Def, Black Thought and Eminem made BET watchable for three minutes. And I agree with Missinfo that they should just combine these with the VH1 Hip-Hop Honors interviews, make one show and scrap everything else.

Props to Nahright for the rip…

    My favorite part of the bet hip hop awards is the cypher. Mos Def, Eminem, Black Thought had the best cypher of the night point blank period! Nicki Minaj, Joe Budden, and KRS One went OFF! Nipsey Hussle was straight. The cypher this year pretty good but wasnt better than last year to me.

    PHUCC CHIA! That’s that shyt right there boi!!! that’s that good shyt!

    That’s what I grew up on… shyt like that! 3 hard ass emcee’s cypher’d up and passin the mic over a breakbeat!

    Eminem you have been forgiven, last night was your true redemption! Black Thought was AMAZING & ABSTRACT as always and that is the reason Mos Def is one the most feared emcee’s EVER!

    that was historical because of the times we are ..props to the person/people who put them 3 together in the first place…this is what happens when u put the best together… there is no cypher in this decade that was as interesting than that one ..EMINEM.. cmon that was the illest.. really …rewind that obama part … retarded…those 3 verses should get hip hop quotable of the month..rare in this day and age..and the illest part was NO ONE RAPPED ABOUT POPPIN BOTTLES OR ASSETS in 2009 and that was ill…and please dont get it twisted this is what got u on in the game real rap from the heart … so when we are forced to rap about the minor things in life like money sex clubs the value of the mc is becoming rare.ANYBODY can rap that nonsense about ice all day couple of song on that is cool(but truthfully those are the most fake rappers in real life anyway)…but not everyone can kill a mic like these mcs just did. one did ya thing as usual

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/8D1/ 8D1

    PLEASE PAY ATTENTION!! THAT IS REAL HIP HOP!! THAT IS REAL RAP!! YOU WILL NEVER GET A CYPHER,A REAL CYPHER LIKE THAT ANY OF THESE MADE IN THE STUDIO CLOWNS-SOULJA BOY,NEW BOYZ ETC..this is where the true test of rapper is done!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/1changedman/ 1changedman

    Eminem should not have been on the same stage as mos and Black thought be for real people!!!! Em is the best white rapper maybe….doubt it.

    I’ll give BET a thumbs up for the Cypher sessions on the show… Plus the Kid & Play thingy… and the Goodie MOB performance… THE GUCCI MANIA must stop though… Just freakin’ ridiculous. BET has so much potential… They bring back the Oldies But Goodies like no one/other station can. I wish they could do amazing things like that all the time!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/mike_diesel27/ mike_diesel27

    Damn! Mos Def is one of the best out there. Black Thought, never was into him up until now dude killed it. Eminem, what can I say? He ripped it up too. By the way, all of yall are right. This is real hip-hop! The only thing bad I could say about a few posts is that we should leave Soulja Boy, New Boyz, and them Stanky Leg niggas outta this. Lets be real, we can’t hate them lil dudes. They never claim hip-hop is what they do. Hell, they don’t claim rap. They just trying to make some money as youngsters. Yeah they corny BUT, they are not to blame for the “demise” of hip-hop. Radio stations, older hip-hop generations, even BET, etc. are the reasons hip-hop is on “life Support.” But this video is proof that it’s still breathing.

    Eminem is SICK.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/eddieknowles/ eddieknowles

    IS there any more persuading needed by this caucasian? absolutely incredible. Mos Def needs to see a Dr. because his skills are really sick, im hoping that he could infect the rest of hip hop with it. and who is this second guy? hes been flying below the radar undetected and all of a sudden im hit with a lyrical genius. i would hate to be on next years cypher because the bar has been set for eternity, this cypher is the blueprint for hip hops next generation. job well done men!
