*Kendrick Lamar and Big Sean ruled the roost at the 2015 BET Hip Hop Awards, which aired Tuesday night (Oct. 13), but was taped on Friday.

Each rapper won three awards, followed by Drake’s two trophies, including MVP of the year. Newcomer Fetty Wap won track of the year and the “who blew up” award.

As previously reported, Scarface was honored with the “I Am Hip Hop” award – and then immediately arrested for failing to pay child support. He had just given his acceptance speech at the Boisfeuillet Jones Atlanta Civic Center when cops nabbed him.

“There was a sheriff waiting to arrest him backstage,” a source tells Us Weekly. “Literally, he walked off the stage holding his awards and handcuffs were put on him.”

The 44-year-old musician, real name Brad Jordan, had his bond set at $482,190.
