Surprise, Surprise — Drake Nabbed The Most 2014 BET Hip Hop Awards Nominations

Slow down Drake, you’re killin’ ‘em. The 2014 Bet Hip Hop Awards nominations have been announced, and Drizzy is leading the pack with eight nods. He’s up for awards in categories that include Best Hip Hop Video (for “Worst Behavior”), Lyricist of the Year, Hustler of the Year and Best Featured Verse (for his contribution to YG’s “Who Do You Love?)

Iggy Azalea, who tied with Eminem for seven VMA nominations this year, is nominated in categories that include Best Hip-Hop Video (for “Fancy,” of course) and Who Blew Up Award. Meanwhile, Nicki Minaj is up for four awards, and we can’t wait for another memorable acceptance speech.

The show airs October 14 at 8 p.m. ET. on BET and Snoop Dogg will be your host.
