With a jam-packed performance list at the 2014 BET Hip Hop Awards, it’s tough to say who really stole the show. Between Rae Sremmurd opening and Bobby Shmurda closing, the show rarely — if ever — had a down moment. From the #DontShoot #HandsUp moment provided by Common’s performance — which also featured an appearance from the parents of slain Ferguson teen Mike Brown — to an epic impromptu performance from Snoop Dogg and Doug E. Fresh, the 2014 BET Hip-Hop Awards didn’t disappoint at all.
