“A Milli,” “Lollipop,” “Got Money” and his recent single “Mrs. Officer” are just a few of Lil Wayne’s hits, who stole the stage at the BET Hip Hop Awards on Saturday. The show could have been called Mr. Weezy’s (aka Lil Wayne) because he ran it. Nominated for 12 awards, Lil Wayne picked up Lyricist of the Year, MVP of the Year and People’s Champ.

Although the numerous awards may make his accomplishments seem easy, Lil Wayne beat out T-Pain (who he collaborated with on “Got Money”, DJ Khaled, T.I., Kanye West and Jay-Z for MVP.

And Weezy F. Baby, the rapper from the 17th Ward in New Orleans, announced he is expecting another son in “a couple of days” during his Lyricist of the Year award acceptance. Quite the family man, MTV reported that he dedicated the MVP award to his daughter.

According to all accounts, the show was full of surprises like T-Pain replacing comedian Katt Williams as host. And there were numerous performances by hip hop greats like T.I., Ludacris, Nas and Young Jeezy. The women also got into the mix. In an old school tribute, female rap icons, MC Lyte, Yo-Yo, the Lady of Rage and Salt-N-Pepa, whose 1993 classic “Whatta Man” song was dedicated to presidential candidate Barack Obama.
