In contrast to women, most celebrity men are less likely to get pampered, primped and dressed up for an event, let alone a hip-hop show.
However, for a major red carpet event like the BET Hip Hop Awards, there’s the rare occasion that guys will go the extra mile to get swagged out and show-off their fashion sense.
At this year’s 12th annual event, the guys ‘let their hair down’ and came through dripping in designer goods.
The show’s dress code is a lot less rigid than other award shows (think: the Grammys or The Emmys), but that didn’t stop a few of our favorite artists from getting dressed up in fresh-off-the-runway looks.
