VMA weekend got started last night in high fashion — pun totally intended — as the BMI Urban Awards were held in honor of Snoop Dogg.
The legendary rapper was presented with the BMI Icon Award for his classic body of work by his friend and mentor, Dr. Dre, and saw many of those hits performed in a tribute by Wiz Khalifa, Bootsy Collins, Charlie Wilson, Warren G, and The Game.
The accolades also poured in for Drake, who received Songwriter of the Year honors.
Others attending the BMI Urban Awards were Christina Milian, Skylar Grey, Busta Rhymes, Dawn Richard, Mario, Corinne Bailey Rae, and more.
