Before the explosion of the slew of current female Hip Hop artists in the game, Trina was one of the few women holding it down.
The 47-year-old Miami native got her start in the 90s and has been a mainstay ever since. This year the self-proclaimed “baddest chick” will get honored at the 2022 BET Hip Hop Awards.
She will be awarded the “I Am Hip Hop Award” at this year’s ceremony. “I am honored to receive and accept 2022 I Am Hip Hop Award presented by BET,” said Trina. “As a legend with over 20 years in the music industry, consistency and unity have contributed to my Rockstarr power as a femcee. I believe when one woman wins, whether it’s in front of the camera or behind the scenes, we all WIN. Let’s keep winning!”
The annual show premieres Tuesday, October 4, 2022, at 9:00 PM ET/PT and will be hosted by Fat Joe. For more details, you can follow the award show on Facebook by liking the fan page at facebook.com/HipHopAwards
