Well this was quite random, but good. The BET Awards paid tribute to dancehall this evening with Jabba, Chaka Demus & Pliers, Beenie Man and Elephant Man. Lawdamercy.

While a devilish grin, J.Cole took a seat for a live performance of “Crooked Smile”. Afterwards, Miguel made his third appearance on stage and joined him for “Power Trip”. After the jump, check out his performance of the aforementioned songs on Hip-Hop Nation.  

Heads up. After taking the “Best R&B Artist” award, Miguel served the Nokia Theatre with “How Many Drinks” with this year’s “Best Hip-Hop and New Artist”, Kendrick Lamar. Bottoms up.

Robert Kelly sure has a lot of hits. And this evening, the Pied Piper premiered a new song and then took it back with a medley of his previous bangers. From the church to the bedroom, rock out with Kells.

Surrounded by chandeliers, MiMi graced the Nokia Theatre stage with Miguel and Da Snowman for their “#Beautiful (Remix)“. Afterwards, Jeezy lit up the stage for “R.I.P.”. They just killed the theatre.

Kendrick missed accepting his “Best New Artist” Award, but he hit the stage for “m.A.A.d City” and “Bitch Don’t Kill My Vibe” with Ms. Badu. These two go hand-to-hand.

Dressed in all white, Ciara and Nicki Minaj channel Michael and Janet Jackson in their new music video. Ciara’s moves are something to scream about. Her self-titled album, Ciara in stores July 9. UPDATE: Thirsty for more? Here’s their BET Award performance of “I’m Out” and “Body Party”.

While the feds keep close tabs on 2 Chainz, he and Pharrell are living the life somewhere in the Hollywood Hills. All eyes on the models over here. B.O.A.T.S 2: It’s Me on September 10.

The kid did good. After hitting the BET Experience stage, Kendrick received a platinum plaque for his critically acclaimed album, good kid, m.A.A.d. city. Congrats K-Dot and the entire TDE camp.

The BET Awards weekend is underway and last night the Staples Center hosted the BET Experience concert. Snoop had a handful of guests including Dr. Dre, Future, Trinidad James and Ace Hood. Also on the bill were Miguel, who covered Tupac,  Kendrick Lamar as well as J.Cole who brought out Wale. If you couldn’t attend the festivities, HHH has a few clips from the evening.
