Never mind the shenanigans of Miley Cyrus. There were plenty of Hip-Hop exploits at the MTV EMA’s (that didn’t involve 2Pac & Biggie being potential victims to flatulence). Eminem gave an encore performance of his YouTube Music Award set and seeing him perform “Rap God” live has not gotten old yet. The EMAs are not new territory for the MMLP2 architect, seeing that he holds the record for most awards won from the spectacle. Snoop Dogg has an endless stream of music but at the end of the day, the people love to hear the classics. Last night’s performance (November 10) saw that wish granted to intoxicating heights with his performance of “Gin & Juice.” Over an improvised version to his 1993 hit, Snoop gracefully rapped the lyrics as partner DâM-FunK played the background, chiming in ad-libs through a vocoder and slamming on the keyboard. The two recently formed a union named 7 Days of Funk and put out the single, “Faden Away” as result. Not to be outdone, Iggy Azalea swears that she didn’t let her kitty out, but she was a feisty feline onstage. In a role previously reserved for Miley, the Australian MC gave Robin Thicke vocal support for his ubiquitous hit, “Blurred Lines” and faded to black while he sung “Feel Good.” Hit the gallery to see all the Hip-Hop action that took place in Amsterdam. MTV also has the list of winners.
