현재 한국힙합 씬 "Control" 대란의 원조 격인 아티스트 켄드릭 라마(Kendrick Lamar)가 올해 열리는 최대 힙합 시상식 'BET Hip Hop Awards'에서 무려 14개 부문 후보에 이름을 올렸다.

그는 'Best Hip Hop Video (Don’t Kill my Vibe)', 'Best Live Performer', 'Lyricist of the Year' 등에 후보로 지목됐다. 참고로 그는 지난 2012년 시상식에서 'Lyricist of the Year' 부문을 수상한 바 있다.

켄드릭 라마 다음으로는 드래이크(Drake)가 13개 부문 후보에, 제이콜(J. Cole)이 10개 부문 후보에 올랐다.
