NEW YORK — Hip-hop star Cardi B is walking into the 2019 BET Awards as the most nominated act with seven, while late rapper Nipsey Hussle scored a posthumous nomination.
BET tells the Associated Press late Thursday that Cardi B’s nominations include two for the top prize — video of the year — with her hits “Money” and “Please Me,” with Bruno Mars. She is also competing for best female hip-hop artist, the viewer’s choice award and album of the year with her Grammy-winning album, “Invasion of Privacy.”
Hussle, who was shot to death on March 31, picked up a best male hip-hop artist nomination. His competition includes Drake, J. Cole, Travis Scott, Meek Mill and 21 Savage.
