How is de baby and Megan in a best lyricist award category? That makes 0 sense.

[chyname]

It's said I actually had a girl try to argue with me, and say Megan the Stallion is a lyricist, and you see a lot of the youth believe the same . No disrespect to her or other new artist, but the they are hardly considered rappers. I love how BET will nominate anybody hot into the media, and don't look at actual talent . Then will turn around, and have actual lyricist or talented rappers do the cyphers for ratings.

[Power-Hunnid]

Surprised Giselda didn't get anything.

[sscorp]

Megan thee stallion??? Really?? No Em or royce? Is this genre still called hiphop or what??

[tnygmusic]

Royce Sweeps, But People Still Sleep.
Smh. My Boy Deserves It.

[antifuzzball]

My list for 2020
Royce
Eminem
Big Sean
Rhapsody
Conway the Machine

[JusSick]

DaBaby? Megan Thee Stallion? This Drake not earlier Drake? This is a joke.

[blakmajik]

The only name I saw on that list that belonged was rapsody

[marcorojas-vazquez]

Conway
Benny the butcher
Cordae
Freddie gibbs

[BossLevel]

It's a Disgrace Royce not on the List

[worldtree]

*My Fav lines from the 3 of the candidates I listen to the most*
J. Cole:
To the left of that decimal, I need seven figures to play the joint
Turn up your decibels, peep how I decimate a joint
Check out my projects like them workers that Section 8 appoints
And you'll see how I flipped like exclamation points
My niggas shoot first as if they never played the point, more two guards
Enough straps to fill four U-Hauls
More death than World War II caused
Around these parts we pour the brown just to drown these thoughts

Drake:
Dressed in fatigues, I rep the East with my trustees
Smokin' on crushed leaves
They turn they back on everything we built, then they must bleed
I've seen splatter hit the snow when the blood freeze
Straps over territory they know we must keep
Get home and white Air Forces get brushed clean
Back when my mama would interrupt sleep
To tell me hurry up 'cause the bus leaves
Summertime heatwaves, I used to just cut sleeves
My shorty really love me, man, she want me to cut keys
I can't do that normal type of life, is it just me?
Niggas steady try to ride the wave, but it's rough seas

Big Sean:
And I got pressure on me
Seven days a week, it's game seven on me
Life'll test you out, you live through that, that's testimony
Givin' them hell, but how in the hell I got all these blessings on me?
Most of the girls I know addicted to social media
All the time they put in, they could've wrote encyclopedias
Mama said it only takes one time to fuck up your whole Wikipedia
And as your son, I can see the type of light that you see me in

[ShutterSpeedGaming]

How is Freddie Gibbs not in this? BET you all sleep 😴

[SamadSaVage]

We getting close to 1 Million subs, Keep it Going HipHopDX, yall for the people

[luismartins]

The real list:
Royce
Pusha
Gibbs
Nas
Conway
Jpegmafia
El-P
Killer Mike

[riccogee]

The lamest genre of music hip hop has become.

[shaneshiphopchannel]

Anyone else notice they’ve flooded the hip hop categories of the awards with the same 6 people this year

[worldtree]

Depends on what they mean. If it's lyricist as far as technicality it should be Nas, Gibbs, Conway, Gunn, Royce, Wayne, Em, etc. If they mean general song construction or message included I'd definitely have to add Big Sean, Rhapsody, Cole, and Drake.

[nerdywilliams]

DaBay and Megan can take a walk from the list like right now

[eliminator]

Lol bet has no credibility. With that list

[michaelcini]

No Em, no Royce, no Freddie Gibbs, no Conway??
