It’s hard to keep track of all of these awards shows but for your general knowledge, the Source Hip-Hop Music Awards is the annual awards show put together by Source Magazine. They kicked off their first awards show in 1991. 

This was such an honor for 50 Cent that he didn’t even show up to accept the awards in person, instead J Rule stood in his place. 

You can tune into the awards telecast on Nov. 11 on the BET cable network.
