[Announcer: DJ Knice] What up Detroit! I'd like to welcome everybody to the first annual Detroit Hip-Hop Awards Secondly, I'd like to thank you for coming out And supporting all of our events this year, especially the awards show That means a lot to us The vision behind the award show is to recognize our own With their talents, gifts and accomplishments both locally and nationally And with a community of artists that consists of people like: [Proof (*Over DJ Knice*)] Psh, damn man My city love me, I love my city man I feel like I'm lettin' 'em down, I done so much But don't feel like I've accomplished, nothin' at all, damn [DJ Knice] Eminem, D12, Obie Trice, Slum Village, Phat Kat Sicknotes, Fat Killahz, Almighty Dreadnaughtz Raw C and Silent Riot, just to touch on a few The first award we'll be presenting tonight Is the Hip-Hop Recognition Award This award is to recognize The individual for outstanding support of Detroit Hip-Hop When I think of that, one person stands out without a doubt From the days of the Hip-Hop Shop To the days of multi-platinum record sales You'll see this guy on MTV Wednesday night Then you'll catch him at St. Andrews Hall Friday night hosting a battle He's been around the world and still finds time to get back to the city [Proof (*Over DJ Knice*)] Hip-Hop... I remember when me and Hip Hop first fell in love man Detroit and Hip-Hop, damn, pssh Psh, eh, 'cause I ain't changin' for shit I'ma always be me [DJ Knice] That being said, it's both a pleasure and an honor To present the first annual Hip-Hop Recognition Award! *Purple Pills starts playing* To none other than my man: Big Proof!
