The 2017 BET Awards were eventful from start to finish. Not only did the red carpet drama between Joe Budden and Migos keep us entertained well into the show, but also the performances from Future, Bruno Mars, Tamar Braxton, and more were simply unforgettable.
The show was so eventful that we almost forgot awards were handed out! Remy Ma made the game proud by taking home the award for ‘Best Female Hip-Hop Artist.’ Chance The Rapper also took home ‘Best New Artist’ and became the first rapper of the Humanitarian Award.
