The nominations are in for the 11th Annual Mixtape Awards and no matter what region you hail from, chances are some of your favorite DJs and artists are up for awards. Originally founded by Justo Faison, who died in a May 2005 car accident, the awards seek to honor the often forgotten but essential contributions of the mixtape DJ to the world of hip-hop. Categories include Best Dirty South Mixtape DJ, Best East Coast Mixtape DJ and Best Hip-Hop Mixtape.

The 2008 ceremony will be significant because it will be the first year that the awards will be streamed live online, allowing fans around the world to take part in the festivities. The show will be available on both www.themixtapeawardsonline.com and www.thatshiphop.com. In an effort to put on the best show possible, the event's organizers have made ambitious plans this year, and as a result, XXLMAG.com has learned that the show is being rescheduled from its planned February 21 date in order to move to a new venue. As is customary, the venue will remain undisclosed for security reasons. Stay tuned to XXLMAG.com for information regarding the new date.
