with more celebration of icons.

to the baddest chick from the 305.
Miami's own Trina received
the 2022 I Am Hip Hop Award at this year's show.
As Remy Ma, City Girls, Missy Elliott,
and Latto spoke on Trina's epic career and influence.
It was Trina herself who paid it forward,
shouting out GloRilla during her acceptance speech.
A beautiful moment between two fire MCs in the game.
- To all the women
working behind the scenes
or in front of the cameras,
when one wins, we all wins.

but it is yours too.
I am still and will always be
the original baddest chick from the 305.
