BET gathered some of the most talented and well known west coast MCs for the their annual cypher which is conjunction with the BET Hip Hop Awards. Guests included Snoop Dogg, E-40, Kendrick Lamar, Xzibit, Kurupt, DJ Quik, and YG. After the cypher, we interviewed each MC and they gave us their thoughts on what it takes to be a great MC and the dynamics of a cypher. It was amazing to see these guys hanging out together. Oh yeah, DJ Premiere was there too. Props to Cameron Dennis on the second cam and edit.
