The American Music Awards took place over the weekend with rap performances by Nicki Minaj & Weezy, Pitbull, Wyclef and the night’s hip hop queen Iggy Azalea – who beat Drake and Eminem in both the Best Hip Hop Album & Best Hip Hop artist categories. Iggy lost out in the New Artist of the Year, as well as Single of the Year – but I’m sure beating Eminem and Drizzy is a pretty MONUMENTAL feat.
