LYRICIST OF THE YEAR GOTTA C NIPPSY HUSSLE ON GOD I KNOW YALL FEEL ME. #FACTS
Nipsey Hustle is overrated as hell. No one gave a shit before he died. Now hes the second coming of pac lol.
Na hes no where close to pac. But victory lap album was dope compared to all of the bullshit on this BET list
Lol one of the nominees for lyricist of the year is drake. Shouldn’t it be his ghostwriters instead?
Just goes to show you what a farce hip hop has become.
Why are they lacking when it comes to international artist.
I blame all the single parents and stripper bitches for this trash. How this hoe still winning awards? She put a song out nobody talked about it. It flopped hard af.
Why is the rick Ross feature on what’s free the nominated one when the better feature was jay z
And the award for thee most irrelevant awards show goes to BET.
God every “artist” they have on this list of stupid awards is trash the mainstream makes me sick
She only has one album and keeps getting nominated for shit like Rapsody don’t exist
BET. Still widening the race divide.
I need someone to explain to me how DJ Khaled is getting nominated for Best Producer or MVP or even a seat at this event. Man is P Diddy without the talent or clout.
R.i.P Hip-HOP…..Feel sorry for little kids that gotta grow up listing to this $hit they play on the radio and Stream that they call RAP/ Hip-Pop.
B.E.T is owned and opperated by Viacom……It’s been over for a min.
Man yall didn’t even get nominated lol thats crazy!!! We should boycott!!!! LOLOL
Man this list is weak as Hell. I hate that wack ass trash rap gets props over real rap. No way Glasses Malone “Tupac Must Die”shouldn’t be on for best video. Or Nipsey Hussle “Double Up.” They might as well call this The Sanitation Awards, because ain’t no real hip hop exists here anymore. Fuck emo rap
Lmao why yal delete my comment for this trash website not being recognized for online hiphop source ? Don’t be mad at me , look at yourselves clowns
This people steay praises Cardi B, they gove more props to non black artists this shit is a joke. Black folks why yall steady praises her to supremacy. I bet yall black axxes gonna have her and DJ Kalid when every category they in.
