This is why he's the head zorl. I love his boldness, call it OWT

Fuck is a cracker Grammy when your own community wont recognize you

Cause when you're no longer "hot", the black community/queers are the only ones that will TRULY hold an artist down.

So he was nominated before

I was here thinking they legit never nominated him before which to me was definitely suspect and shady considering all he's done

But then again when I think about it if he was nominated for "best new artist" it probably had more to do with "old town road" before he started getting more tangy.

and once he got a lil too tangy for them they were like :calmdownsis: so the timeline is still very suspect

I wish BET would have just said "Yeah. You're not nominated. Sorry". This is the perfect example of when someone sees success and they think they deserve the world. Entitlement at its finest. He needs to take about 1,000 seats

I don't listen to any of his music but based on how popular it is, it's definitely expected that he would get nominated. The fact that he only has ONE nomination and that was years ago even though he's put out plenty of successful music and is Black is just kinda weird. Since when have the BET Awards been strictly about quality? There's been a few years where Beyoncé was nominated and had barely put 1 song out the whole year. It's just not making sense

His music doesn't cater to their audience, tbh.
Jason Derulo has hits every era and BET doesn't acknowledge him. Maybe if he made urban music and stopped trying to coat everything he does in antics and his sexuality, they would highlight him. I feel like he's using BET as a promotional tool for a new era and it's in bad taste. They can't and will not nominate every black artist that has music out. Where was this energy for the other award shows that didn't nod him or even award him for that matter. He has no respect for BET and it's evident. They did right. Stay mad, faggot.

That's literally how that goes. You invite someone that you typically wouldn't and their audience watches your show. Brings up the ratings and reach.

Either way, there's no reason why he shouldn't at least have one nomination other than the fact that he's a flaming homosexual.

Yall would MAYBE have a SLIGHT point if they didn't nominate Jack Harlow. He got nominated off the success of a Lil Nas X single let's not forget. And Lil Nas did get a Bet Award nomination BEFORE he came "out" like he is now. Yeah some of the fans etc knew Nas was gay but he wasn't gay gay like he is now lol.

So yeah young King points still stands.

Even though it's a committee of his peers and behind the scenes folks who vote.

Jason Derulo is actually another example of BET discriminating against gay men. Black artists make music, they don't dictate who plays/supports their mess.

Also, Sam Smith and Adele have been nominated/won
What's the excuse for that?
And Nas X has been nominated before. What's your point? Starting to see you aren't making one. He didn't get nominated and that's final. Go bicker with the white shows that don't highlight you.
:unsure:
he was nominated before he came out as gay, that's the point. They clearly have issues awarding a gay man, even if they will let him perform to boost their ratings.

Jason Derulo is actually another example of BET discriminating against gay men. Black artists make music, they don't dictate who plays/supports their mess.

Well in their defence, his music is terrible and it doesn't appeal to their core audience.

Now yea Jason Derulo is someone who actually doesn't cater to BET's urban audiences. Nobody has ever really complained about them skipping him
Nas is way more urban he's just gay

The way these artists feel entitled to awards & nominations. 

His music ain't good. Period. 

I can see if BET never acknowledged this boy, but they have.

Nas should have been nominated in artist categories. Industry Baby should have been nominated in the song categories as that song WAS supported by urban.

His music doesn't cater to their audience, tbh.

but if this is the case why did they book him to perform TWICE?
for viewership and to not be canceled. If it wasn't the case, why hasn't he won an award or been nominated more than once?
isn't their audience the ones viewing the show?
when you toss in someone like Nas X you expand viewership, you do understand the right?
but if he doesn't cater to their audience wouldn't they be losing viewers? If the audience doesn't like him or his music they would tune out when he's on right? The only way it expands is if they stay AND new ppl watch as well
That's literally how that goes. You invite someone that you typically wouldn't and their audience watches your show. Brings up the ratings and reach.

:unsure:
so he did cater to their audience as well as bring his own
No he doesn't cater to their audience. He panders to gays and white audiences.  :unsure:

You'll say anything to prove a moot point.

Your point was that he hadn't been nodded since he came out which was completely false, and for clarity he won 2 BET hip hop awards and performed after coming out.

You can separate the conversation but to say it's because he's a homosexual is silly and only adds to my point. They can nominate anyone they desire and his music doesn't cater to their audience.

The end.

He said fuck BET, which houses two award shows... one in which he won two. But that's neither here or there. The fact is he's been nodded since announcing he was a faggot. He was also invited to perform for them to appear inclusive and drum up ratings for their show.

That was always the point. This whole thread has specifically been about the BET awards nobody was thinking about the Hip Hop awards
and even the Hip Hop awards wins were for Old Town Road which again was recorded before he came out 
so he has not been nominated at the BET Awards since coming out, and hasn't won a hip hop award since then either 
which is a lesser show than the main show
