On Tuesday, it was announced that Fat Joe would bring his hosting abilities to the 2022 BET Hip-Hop Awards in Atlanta.
“This will be the biggest award show in history,” Fat Joe said. “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.”
The BET Hip Hop Awards will take place on Sept. 30, but air on Oct. 4 at 9 p.m.
“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,” Fat Joe said.
Fat Joe is a Grammy-nominated recording artist, actor, entrepreneur, and media personality that merged into the hosting world during the COVID-19 pandemic when he began interviewing fellow artists and entertainers on his Instagram live.
“Fat Joe is hip hop royalty,” Connie Orlando, EVP, Specials, Music Programming & Music Strategy at BET said. “He has represented the artform and the Bronx, the birthplace of hip hop, throughout his outstanding musical career. 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.”
