The 2007 American Music Awards kicked off last night and if your like me you probably didn’t watch it, cause they don’t really care about hip hop or do they? T.I. did take home favorite Male artist and favorite album in the Rap/Hip Hop category. And there were a good amount of Hip-Pop performances which you can find links to below [Not that YoRapper readers really care about Beyonce or Fergie or Rihanna, except to eyeball]. Anyway, here is a list of the winners (that we care about);

SOUL/RHYTHM & BLUES
Favorite Male Artist:
Akon

Favorite Female Artist:
Rihanna

Favorite Album:
Justin Timberlake/FutureSex/LoveSounds

RAP/HIP-HOP
Favorite Band, Duo or Group:
Bone Thugs-N-Harmony

Favorite Male Artist:
T.I.

Favorite Album:
T.I./T.I. vs. T.I.P.

Also check out the performances. Chris Brown is on FIRE! And where did Alicia get that booty from? It was also sick seeing Junior Reid & co. kill it for all my West Indian heads at the whitest award show ever.
