Fat Joe stands as a beacon of longevity in Hip-Hop. As such, it’s oh so fitting that the Rap royal has been tapped to host the BET HIp-Hop Awards 2022.

Organizers for the event, which tapes at Atlanta’s Cobb Energy Center on September 30 and airs October 4 on BET, shared the news months ago.
Joe will preside over this extravaganza, which salutes the top releases and figures in Hip-Hop over the last year.
Speaking on his enlisting, the ‘All The Way Up’ MC said in a statement:
“This will be the BIGGEST award show in history. It’s truly an honor to host and produce the BET Hip Hop Awards and I can’t thank Connie and the entire BET family enough for this opportunity. We’re going to celebrate music, culture and entertainment, honor the biggest and brightest stars in the world and make this an unforgettable night full of laughs and surprises. Always remember that yesterday’s host is not today’s host.”
Connie Orlando, EVP, Specials, Music Programming & Music Strategy at BET added:
“Fat Joe is hip hop royalty. He has represented the artform and the Bronx, the birthplace of hip hop, throughout his outstanding musical career. He is a treasured friend of the network and we’ve loved seeing and supporting his evolution to becoming the superstar he is today. We can’t wait to watch him take the stage with his vivacious energy, standing together with today’s hottest and beloved hip hop stars.”
