There’s no stopping Nicki Minaj.

The rapper picked up her fourth consecutive win for best female hip-hop artist at the BET Awards on Sunday night.

“Every time I win it’s a humbling experience,” she said. “My fans are amazing people.”

Minaj performed with Chris Brown, who opened the awards show with a medley of new songs. BET couldn’t bleep some of the rapper’s expletives – much like the awards show last year. Expletives from Wayne Brady, Erykah Badu and the singers who performed with R. Kelly slipped, too.
