Facing off in categories like “Best Male Hip Hop Artist” against stiff competition like Jay-Z and Ludacris, Fab said he hoped to go home with an award.

“I’m very appreciative of that,” Fab said acknowledging his BET Awards nominations. “We make music and you hope that it’s well received and I hope to win an award, you know, to be nominated is the first step in that so I can’t wait to go there to the BET Awards, [see] the festivities, watch the great performances and see if I can bring one home.” (Miss LS)
