TeeRoy's 2 Cents:
- Khaled will not only be the master of ceremonies -- he could also take home a few awards, too. The veteran DJ received nine nominations for this year’s awards, including Album of the Year.
- This means Asahd Khaled will be the unofficial co-host.
- A lot of folks will probably stay in Miami for the week to attend Gucci Mane's wedding.
- Khaled's a safe choice who knows how to get crowds hype.
- When you hire DJ Khaled for your gig, you're guaranteed a bunch of social media promo.
- They should switch it up and get some new blood -- like Tiffany Haddish.

BET and DJ Khaled are teaming up once more. The network has tapped the Miami hitmaker for a second year in a row as the host of the BET Hip-Hop Awards.
Khaled says, “This is such an iconic show that highlights the hustle of hip-hop artists in the industry. It is a huge honor to be a part of a night that pays homage to some of the greatest talent of our generation and I’m looking forward to the amazing performances and tributes. You know I’ll be bringing the cloth talk and the keys -- Hip Hop Awards 2017 is going to be major!”
The show takes place at the Fillmore Miami Beach at Jackie Gleason Theater in Miami on October 6th and airs on October 10th.
