They need to take a long hard look at the BET Awards. I feel like it could be salvaged, but it would take some work.

Paramount is on its last legs. BET is getting sold sooner or later so there might not be a awards show next year.

They need to make it multigenerational again. BET awards used to have your granny, parents, older siblings, you, and your little cousins entertained.

A messy Lauryn Hill and washed Will Smith are supposed to represent for Gen X? :dahell: At least Marsha is there

Too many song of the moment artists, which ain’t BET’s fault, that’s the industry, but they have no reach or name recognition. The big stars gotta stop acting too good for this show. And no performers for the boomers?

Show is a mess

If they announce Lauryn as the next performer and she doesn't show and they cut to commercial only for her to show up at the end of the broadcast or the after show to perform whatever it was she was supposed to perform earlier, it will be epic.

I know I miss when they would have acts like Earth Wind and Fire, James Brown, Prince and etc getting the lifetime achievement awards. Then I realized those are legacy acts to 80’s babies like me. These 90’s/2000 babies legacy acts are Usher, Mary J, Beyoncé etc.

I’m still mad they never honored George Clinton and Parliament.

00’s BET awards always had someone from the 70’s/80’s performing or being honored, but they don’t do a good job honoring the 90’s now that that’s 30 years ago. And hella acts who were big in the 70’s/80’s still perform well and could be brought out to entertain my parents age. Speaks to the critique that black culture isn’t being transferred down the way it used to
