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.

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:

Also, Sam Smith and Adele have been nominated/won
What's the excuse for that?

The Only BLACK Kalmyks

Project started: 2014 Wrapped up: 2024

Significant Discovery: First known Black American family of Kalmyk descent

Takeaways: Be prepared to pivot, even when you think you're on the right track. Be OK with being wrong so you can get things right.

Kalmyks are tribal Mongolic people who settled in Russia. It's estimated that only 300,000 Kalmyk descendants exist worldwide - with only 3,000 in America.

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.

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.

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.

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

RAY7

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

Kalifornia.

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.
