Hip-hop will be recognized quite nicely at the American Music Awards when the show goes live on November 24th on ABC. Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, who were nominated for six awards, will be performing.
Also performing is Kendrick Lamar, who has a Favorite Album, Rap/Hip-Hop nomination for good kid, m.A.A.d city. (He’s probably gonna lose to Macklemore and Ryan Lewis and their The Heist album. Let that marinate).
Also hitting the stage are a couple more pop acts that we love: Lady Gaga, who was just announced as a performer, Miley Cyrus, Imagine Dragons and One Direction.
It sounds like this is going to be a hell of a show.
