I’m tuning in to root for Nas

He’s been on an incredible streak since last year with King’s Disease and has KILLED all of his feature verses this year. He finally got his first Grammy and hopefully the BET Awards will follow suit.

 

 

 

Also for Lifetime Achievement the fact that Stevie Wonder is CRIMINAL

Nothing better to close Pride Month with this year than a Lil Nas X performance that we probably never thought would be possible.

I mean the fact that he’s openly queer and continues to have massive commercial success is really opening the gate for the LGBT community in the music industry.

The B in BET must stand for Beyoncé or Brown. They win almost every single year.

Lil Nas X has potential for icon status. That’s bae.

Bro, why these fucking BET and Soul Train awards keep awarding Chris Brown? They are fuckin proud of him beating women and making the same shitty music. There is no excuse when they got better alternatives. By the way, Weeknd is snubbed again, even by his own people.

BET is known to not to award artist that lean more towards pop music, so it’s not surprising that The Weeknd didn’t win. Especially when he only had one single released to urban radio from after hours. Rihanna has been the most successful female artist almost every time  she was nominated but only won twice. Bruno didn’t win until he released the 24k album. Even with artist like CeeLo Green and Khalid when they had the most success during their nomination, it went to the person that had the biggest urban hit.

To be fair, The Weeknd should’ve won but BET does have a bias against pure Pop artists/music. Abel lost his Urban audience this era.
