Some of our favorites have taken over Atlanta for the coveted ceremony.

The BET Hip Hop Awards are upon us, and before we get to naming off who-won-what, our favorites artists and entertainers are showing their best looks on the red carpet. The coveted annual event will host a series of performers including Young Thug, Gunna, Bia, Lil Jon, Baby Keem, and Isaiah Rashad, but we’re sure there will be more to come.

Nelly is slated to be honored at the event where he will be given the “I Am Hip Hop” Award, and the rapper previously stated, “I am honored to receive this award and humbled to be in such great company of past artists who have received this award.”

Check out a few highlights below and we’ll keep you updated on the list of winners.
