@@naebonniewell, hold up. You had your ratchetness back then. Lil Lom talked about eating the kitty and all that as well. foxy Brown, too. But I say this to people who didn’t live that era. What I mean by live is, sure, if you were 13-15 years old, you grew up with it, but you were still in high school. To actually live it, you have to see it out and about like in the clubs, at jobs, etc. I was 21 in ‘93. The shift with our culture started in ‘88 with NWA, and progressed through the 90’s. The majority of our culture was shifting to popularize being hood, being ghetto, wing a thug, or being a hoodrat. Being like that became “profitable” to the whites, and “real” to the blacks. Now think about this. Knowing it started then, these woman had children in the 90’s, and were single mothers. How old are those kids NOW? They are 34 years old and below. So, those little girls were raised by the 90’s hoodrat listening to “my neck, my back lick my P and my crack”, and “put it in my mouth”, and so on and so on. They were listening to Freddie Jackson around the house in quite sure. The home is the first teacher. You see it now; the product of the 90’s. Look at the type of men they want. I became a lawyer in 1995., right before turning 23. I’ve never been with a white woman, and I had a high paying job. Sistas were clocking for me. And, not because of my looks either. I was a pretty boy to them because I was 6’3” 210-215, light skinned and green eyes (natural and I hated them). I didn’t drink or smoke (I’m 52 now and still don’t), no kids, and had my job at the firm. But, because I was rolling in the car rocking Poor Righteous Teachers instead of Death Row music, I was “corny”. You had theD boys giving girls that fast money. Well, listen now. Girls want a “6 figure” dude, and pay for this and pay for that. Fly them out. Who taught them that? Those hoodrat 90’s single mothers. Truly think about about those times, and you’re see the foundation was laid for what we see now

"Black targeted, not Black owned", is exactly right, and the reason Taraji had me fuming by constantly lying to the Masses faces, and promoting Degenerate Politicians, trying to force people to Vote for them. That was equivalent to when Diddy had the 'Vote or Die" Campaign, and Biden telling Black people they're not Black unless they Vote for him.. Even though Biden is the one who Drafted the Crime Bill for Clinton that had Black people incarcerated by the Masses, for the same thing that's now Legal. Kamala too! I don't like Taraji now...

I'm from the Teen Summit era. Once it ended, I stopped watching. It's not hard to figure out the agenda that has been and still being pushed. Sexxy Red is a flight of steps down all by herself. I am sick of the ratchet era. You can look at the lack of talent that is being featured and see that positivity is not being marketed and no one cares. It's classless and off-putting. I don't particularly appreciate watching other award shows, but it is what we have to watch to see people having class and reverence. I want to see my people stepping out looking suave, dapper, and gorgeous in an orderly respectable fashion... not slutty, ghetto, misguided, untalented, and all over the place. It's time to stop being aware of participating in the demise of our culture for a couple of bucks.

In the 80s art didn’t just reflect life, it also inspired life. Remember the afterschool specials that were on ABC? And the evening family specials and the positive TV shows weren’t only Hallmark specials. We even had positive cartoons like Fat Albert, Care Bears and Strawberry Shortcake. These things were used to inspire positivity in the community. Even the ads like the Coca-Cola commercial, “I’d like to teach the world to sing…” used art to inspire positive change. The Black media served the same purpose. Fame, Soul Train. We don’t see any of those things today and that was BET’s original place. It was to inspire positivity and highlight excellence. That’s why we’re disappointed. Where’s the enlightening and empowering art?

Black people do not own BET. Let's not forget. So basically we can't expect BET to represent us as "black people."Unfortunately, Sexy Red represents some people in our community and a lot of people just don't like Sexy Red including myself lol! I've never even heard her music to be honest. I'm an R&B artist and I personally steer clear of most of the new so-called Hip Hop music. I love my people but a lot of our music is starting to scare me! 😅😮 Let's do better by showing more class. 🥂

BET didn’t start out that way…when Robert Johnson started the channel…you had the news anchors who covered issues that concerned us , Teen Summit with students from the Ellington School of the Performing Arts students including future R&B star Mya discussing current events and topics that the young people had to deal with…Ananda Lewis got her start as a co host before joining MTV , and Donnie Simpson hosted Video Soul that was classy with not just rappers and singers stopping by…he touched on some serious issues too…you had Caribbean Rhythms…not just dancehall music but Roots & Culture…the host Rachel took you on a journey through exotic and beautiful locations…giving you the history of how it connected with the Africa diaspora…from the founding of the channel in the mid 80’s to the late 90’s…when Viacom , the company that already owned MTV and VH1…bought BET and the move from Washington DC to New York City…lead to massive changes and it is sad that it will never be what it was!
