2009 Ohio Hip Hop Awards | Winners List
Sep 26th, 2009 | By E. Christian Wallace | Category: News & Reviews
The 2009 Ohio Hip Hop Awards have now come and gone. It was an interesting show to say the least, complete with high and low points. I took a trip up to my hometown of Cleveland to cover Saturday’s main event. Contrary to popular belief, the OHHA actually consists of much more–a full weekend of activities designed to raise awareness of the inner workings of the music industry. Feel free to visit RapReviews.com for a more in-depth recap of the show by me, but in the meanwhile, if you just wanna know who won what, I’ve provided the winners list and also the runners-up (if applicable) below for your convenience.
