Though details of the BET Hip Hop Awards 2010 are scarce, one thing is for sure: Mike Epps is scheduled to return to host the fifth annual awards ceremony on October 16.
Epps was also the host for 2009’s award ceremony, though the show has only had two prior hosts: Katt Williams (2006-07) and T-Pain (2008).
The first BET Hip Hop Awards ceremony was held in 2006 at Atlanta’s Fox Theatre, where it has remained ever since. There are 16 categories, including Best Hip Hop Collaboration, Rookie of the Year, Best Live Performer and Best Hip Hop Video.

Mike Epps is touring this Winter and Spring, including a number of stops in Maryland and in the Great Lakes region.
Epps got his start on the Def Comedy Jam tour, starring in two of the broadcasts. He also appeared in the hit movie “Friday” and its sequel, “Next Friday,” and made himself a household name.
The funnyman also lent his voice to “Dr. Doolittle” and his comedy chops in “How High,” a Cheech and Chong flick of the new millennium starting Redman and Methodman.
