During the 2022 BET Hip Hop Awards, Clipse reunited for “Grindin,” while “F.N.F. (Let’s Go)” rapper GloRilla made her awards show debut.

Rap culture came together for the 2022 BET Hip Hop Awards on Tuesday night (October 4). Held at Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre in Atlanta and hosted by Fat Joe, the Jealous One’s Envy rapper opened with a drum line that covered “Hot” by Young Thug and Gunna, along with 1998 Outkast classic “SpottieOttieDopaliscious.”

Fat Joe returned to the stage for an all-star performance dedicated to LOUD Records for their 30th anniversary. Introduced by label founder Steve Rifkind, Wu-Tang Clan, Mobb Deep (featuring Lil Kim), Three 6 Mafia, Lil Flip, Dead Prez, Remy Ma and M.O.P. performed hits from their time on the label. The LOUD Records dedication also honored hip-hop forefathers Run-DMC, Ice-T, Kurtis Blow, and Schoolly D.

It’s Almost Dry rapper Pusha T surprised audience members with his latest singles “Diet Coke” and “Just So You Remember,” and also welcomed his twin brother No Malice for a Clipse reunion. The two performed their biggest hit “Grindin,” which turns 20 this year.

Battle rappers DNA and K-Shine went head to head during a freestyle segment midway through the show.

Best Breakthrough Hip Hop winner GloRilla blazed the stage with her Memphis cadence, performing “F.N.F. (Let’s Go)” and “Tomorrow 2,” although collaborator Cardi B was not present for the latter.
