Join Tracy Morgan, Travis McCoy, Naughty By Nature, Busta Rhymes And Many, Many More For VH1’s 2008 Hip Hop Honors

Here, we’ve rounded up the best behind-the-scenes dirt, backstage photos and red carpet reportage to get you your most readiest for the big night. Here’s a few reasons you’ll want to tune in tonight at 10pm:

+ Tracy Morgan’s hosting, and he’s not afraid to give it up for the most powerful woman in politics: Tina Fey.

+ Gym Class Heroes‘ Travis McCoy is heading up the backstage interviews, and you won’t wanna miss him reminiscing with Busta Rhymes over Slick Rick’s jewels.

+ This year’s honorees are some of the biggest names in hip-hop: Cypress Hill, De La Soul, Naughty By Nature, Slick Rick and Too $hort. Yahurd?

+ The performances are gonna be HOT. We’re talking Kid Rock, Lil Jon, Cee-Lo, Fat Joe, Flavor Flav, Wyclef Jean and much, much more.

+ There’s nothing like seeing history in the making. Find out which of this year’s moments will join Nelly and Ciara’s tribute to LL Cool J as one of the best moments in Hip Hop Honors’ history.

+ The guys from Naughty by Nature have so many skillz they can even kick it a cappella. Hip-hop hooray!

+ You’ll get to see Gym Class Heroes, Busta Rhymes, De La Soul and Bun B showing off their favorite hip hop moves. (We still say the Running Man’s timeless).

+ Even the rehearsals are dope. From the Public Enemy runthrough to Travis McCoy’s Cypress Hill tribute, all we can say is BRING IT.

+ And speaking of Cypress Hill, you’ll want to hear why they had a police escort in Illinois. Plus find out how De La Soul passes the time when they’re on the road.

+ The spontaneous infomercials. Despite his apparent lack of coordination, we’re thinking Katy Perry’s boyfriend might’ve missed his calling.

+ It’s all about the style. Special shout-outs to Cee-Lo for his shiny, velour spacesuit and Biz Markie’s for his 45-pound bling… thing.

PLUS, get even more prepped with videos from some of tonight’s top performers and honorees. We’ve been waiting All Summer Long for such a Vivrant Thing, and now Something’s Gotta Give before we Get Low and go Insane in the Brain. So check out hits from Cypress Hill, Naughty By Nature, Busta Rhymes and Lil Jon and try not to go loco. Like we did just there.
