I Agree 100%+ percent that's why they didn't want to sell to Tyler and Byron and it's basically tasteless I don't care to see no woman tweaking where is the beautiful Stylists like what Fantasia had what they had was TRASH!!!
I miss the old timer's, who didn't have to be young, like The Four Tops, The Spinner's, Heatwave, Evelyn Champagne King, The Temptations, The Emotions, etc. They SANG. They danced. They were coordinated. And they had "fits" that matched. These were good times. Good memories. And REAL talent. #BackInTheDay ✨
@@MaeLeeMoore-q2i DUH!!! NOW IF YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT REAL TALENT THEN U'D KNOW WHAT I MEAN. THE FACT THAT THE BAD BEHAVIOR HAS TAKEN OVER THE CHARTS THEN IT SHOULD BE OBVIOUS WHAT I'M SAYING.
If Matthew Perry was murdered, the murderer needs to be found. They need to arrest the murderers of Shanquella Robinson as well! She was just as important as Matthew Perry. They know who murdered her.
I didn’t particularly care for the BET Awards. Why does all the female performers have to be raunchy. Has it come to this BET?? Have you stopped showcasing folk that can sing. Is it all about RAP?? My opinion!
I noticed the audience became more animated when Sexxy Redd was on stage, but Victoria Monet's fantastic performance of 'On My Mama' and 'Alright' didn't get a full standing ovation. She got more applause with her collaboration with Teyana Taylor. They're lying about the vulgarity, because the audience was more excited when those acts were on stage.
@vanessaseymour2634 I noticed that too. When red came out, I was like booo, but the crowd was on their feet. Idk, she's just not entertaining to me. I don't like ignorant people!
@@itkahsramal4983 YES, I agree IGNORANT! It's so disheartening to see this crap as talent. They cant sing, cant play instruments, etc. Unfortunately, the imagery is projected around d the world as being the totality of African Americans. I hate BET. I do believe BET mission is to market the negative imagery in African American communities. There are no other communities that women call themselves B@@ches, as word of 'endearment".Nor are there any groups that integrate a derogatory word used by their oppressors into the lexicon of its community. It's ridiculous for those that believe they have flipped the word and now they use it freely in music. Words have power. So all the artist that bend toward this false identification of N@@@@@hood, are creating a path for generations to follow suite. And, BET will continue to showcase vulgarity as oppose to showcasing talented positive artist in our various genres of music.
Hi Ms. Patty You are so right about the BET Awards. It was disgusting to see the young ladies with no clothes on. It's crazy that these young ladies think it's acceptable to wear dresses that show your body parts. No class what's so ever. What is wrong with these beautiful girls. The talent is completely gone. Social Media is what's in and real talent is gone and we should never forget it. Patti Labelle, Diana Ross, Gladys Knight, Stephanie Mills, Chaka Khan, Cheryl Lynn, Dionne Warwick, Sade etc we Love You.😅😊 Great Scoop today
The BET awards owe the public an apology periodt. They used to be about Black excellence, but now it's black raunch. I just wonder why it's black music that is this way, in other genres even if I don't like the music, and they are not as scantily clothed and there is some real talent. The talent is now on social media. I'm happy for Ashanti and Nelly as well. I can't wait for the Olympics - track and field, swimming and gymnastics.
Gen X… here 🙋🏽♀️ we have moved past the business of nonsense. Living legends (the ones still alive), don’t attends this mess unless they are honoring them. Award shows today are TRASH …what they call music IS NOISE today!!! I only can ONLY listen to my multiple playlists!!!! Reminds me of making mixed tapes and CD’s I use to make 😁🥰. Cheers to the moral and talented individuals sticking to with being classy today.
@@BernitaTubbs I learned to follow the financials of companies a long time ago instead of the company’s name. A lot of businesses have been swallowed up by corporations but they still keep the branding. Meanwhile behind the scenes management and even ingredients change until the product becomes almost unrecognizable. People don’t read labels or ask questions anymore because they are dazzled by logos meanwhile more cooks are in the kitchen and the ingredients have been changed/added.
Yes. And what increases that sadness is that fact that so many don't perceive those performances as low. Their whole concept of what it means to have a respectable performance is warped.
Hey Patty 👋🏾 Chiiile BET ain't been good since the 90s. And yeah at 55 I've definitely aged out of watching it. So glad I came up in the Golden Era of music and talent. I saw Prince and Michael Jackson go head to head in real-time, nothing will ever compare to that. Like you said, no artist development. I can't wait for the Olympics!!! I love gymnastics, swimming and track but I also LOVE table tennis, speed walking and the decathlon sports. 😊
Mathew Perry is responsible for his death. I didn't see anybody accusing another person's other than Coolio when he overdosed. Or any other celebrity, rich or poor person, for that matter. We could all accuse a doctor for over prescribing or a dr#g dealer for selling to a known addict. But an addict is an addict not matter social standing or finances. Poor people don't get the luxury of not being held accountable for their own actions.
WE DIDNT TEACH THEM PERIOD! That’s why! No one responds to derision-placating bs lines don’t spread your legs dress nicely etc etc ad nauseum! No one explains in detail about anything! You stand in ding there saying don’t be a slut is not instructional-especially when the TRUE sluts are MALES! Every male thinks of us as virtuous or whores now-no in between. We need to tell OUR histories and stories all truthful no matter the pain. But we probably won’t. So toxic. Yes, I am bitter as I watch society and courts do nothing! It’s what happens when your FIRST rape is at 3 yrs old! No healing when your life is stolen! No true and real healing all the ‘pros’ push pills and eneffectual alleged therapies. Wish I had a black grandmother or aunty who from the observations speak and raise their girls right. My mom did not and white people are closed and close mouthed. Meh. 🙏🏻❤️🤔
@@hellenthomas4096 Can you imagine; new star we love her get asked why do you love her so much?: because she’s covered from head to toe tastefully and beautifully 😉🤷♀️😁
Hi, Patty! I have questions! Did we really need to hear the cussing in Usher’s speech? Can we hold folk to a higher standard. And doesn’t it cost as much to develop a talented person as it does to push the current crop of untutored untalented ppl? And why is it us who get the nudity, hyper-sexualized, unpolished folk who play into that stereotype about black women? Tired of seeing folks personals! Is this all we deserve? And look at the effect on their fans? Is Jamie really “opening up?” Could have been a stroke?
I stopped years ago with exception of a few artist judges I want to see! Has ANYONE ever been on the radio or ‘made’ it into mainstream? Meh they suck lol. It’s a travesty really!🙏🏻😎
The BET Awards was quite disappointing!!😩 One of my cousins stated that she must be too old for the BET Awards.. I am saying the same thing. I couldn’t fathom why the vulgarity and the twerking was so loud and proud!! The only entertainment was Lauren Hill and her son..🎶
I could not Watch for that reason...The next day in the office, the people said, I will not watch anymore...All the Cussing was a turn off! And no real talent...We could not allow our children to watch it...BET, it is time to get in Session, and Re-Group... Because your headed to Bye for good with what was given...Class-less.. As Black America, we are headed in "2024" to Excellence, Raunchy, Vulger, Unhealthy, is going out!
I wanted to add this to my laat comment. But yes, i am over seeing women wearing as little clothes as possible to these award shows. I only listen to who i like. As for Mr. Perry, everyone has choices. These people who sell don't care about themselves or you. I feel both should share the blame.
Yes patty a lot of the women have been under the knife numerous times. Besides Paula, Janet, Jlo, Vivica fox,Patty Labelle, to name a few. What ever happened to grow old gracefully. I’m not a big fan of Diana Ross, but she has aged gracefully and respectfully, as well as Gladys.
Usher tribune was only good thing they showed the BET Awards shows. I saw more butt cheeks than the beach.😮 The sound was terrible & those performances were questionable.
Hey sis looking stunning as usual, I stopped watching the bet awards as well as the grammy along time ago it just doesn't do anything for me anymore 🤷🏿take care blessings ❤
We HAVE heard from winners and some other contestants on American Idol!!! There's quite a few that we still hear about! Also I learned years ago that it's best not to win on American Idol because you won't have to be stuck with their contracts and you will have to sing what they tell you to sing.
I watched the BET Awards, and my personal complaint was why all the female "rappers" dressed the same. I asked my husband since when ever did All the female rappers dress and perform the same shit?! Not one of them have their own personality. One after the other same outfit...different design but literally the same booty shorts. And let's not talk about their signature dance move! That was very depressing to watch. Look, I thought my tv was acting up when Usher was speaking.
I am with you on today’s “talent “, if that’s what people call it. I don’t waste my time watching these award shows because most of the time I don’t even know who they are or what their current musical contribution is.
Hey Auntie Patty, I didn't watch the whole BET, I Liked Chloe Bailey singing one of Usher songs. Lauren Hill stole the show She showed those women rappers how it's really done. But I thought she was going to fall out with that outfit she was wearing. I was glad I caught that part of it.
It’s a different business because we/ they keep spending money on the mess. This is the Music BUSINESS, if we /they stop buying the mess, it will go away. They didn’t buy Jennifer Hudson’s music. They didn’t buy Fantasia’s music. There are “real” talented people out there, young and older. If we/they spend money on them the music industry will shift.
Patty, I am 79 so you know that isn't cool with me I guess i'm old fashioned Why these girls think less clothes is better???? STOP AND LET A GUY GUESS!
I love track and field, swimmers, gymnastics. I guess I like everything Patty. I stopped watching award shows a long time ago. After that Supreme Court ruling yesterday, I needed a big hug! Thank you. ❤❤❤❤
Hugs Patti ❤❤❤ As a woman over 60 what happen to the talent give me JHud, Brandy, Jill Scott & Whitney any day. I saw the clips on RU-vid. Why was Usher blasting his dad now, your mom once loved this man ,let it go. Why is Paula messing up your face , father time is not going to stop ticking.
Wassup, Miss Patty! I can't with BET any longer, so I didn't miss anything. I googled images of Paula Abdul, & I can't find anything, but it sounds like she's done too much & needs to slow her roll! I pray justice be found for Matthew Perry. Much love,
Gymnastics 🤸🏾♀️ 🤸 is my fav. My daughter in law ran track for 4 years at a D1 college so I try to keep up w/track,too, so that I can intelligently discuss it w/her.
Nelly & Ashanti❤remind me of the Invisible Thread Chinese proverb that basically says you’re connected to your soulmate by an invisible thread that helps you find your way back to each other no matter what.
Patty I have thought I was the only one who thought about American idol and the voice this way. I stop watching watching a while ago. These people have good voices but you never hear from them again. Too phony for me. I guess they are just perpetrating..
Hey Auntie👋🏾! Thanks for doing what you doing what you do🤗. The Boondocks predicted BET"s productions 🤦🏾♂️. I'm happy for Nelly and Ashanti. It takes time to reach maturity. Did you hear what Nippy and Cissy said about Paula 🤔😳👀😲😏. I hope Eddie has success with this movie 👏🏾. Shanice and her mom can sang 🙌🏾.
So just because the music industry has dumbed down as it pertains to music artistry, does that mean that BET has to jump off the bridge with them? We have to set the standard, when did we become followers? ✌🏾
Jasmine has always had a bad skin condition. You were always seeing a lot of foundation. That said, natural aging, there is much to be said for it. No one really knows what all of that adjustment and rejection of what God made really does.
I stopped watching BET, when Ed Gordon left. When they used to do the nightly news! I tried when Tyler Perry did his shows. Then he got his own network, and I’ve been left BET a long time ago alone.
Hi Patty, hope you had a nice weekend and you are looking forward to your July 4th upcoming holiday! Well, about the Bet awards, I have not watched them for years! You know for me thier is not much great talented singers that comes on award shows anymore...I got spoiled back in the goods days of talented singers that performed brilliantly, and looked respectful on stage so once again no surprise on how the show turn out.
Pharrell had Koryn Hawthorne on the Voice and she went gospel! The young probably don’t want to do what the older real singers did. Looking at the older singers now, so many of them are messed up. So maybe they hesitate. Ask the voice and American idol hosts? Young people aren’t made out of the same cloth! They can’t take the abuse older singers took!
Getting older does suck sometimes (especially for women) but think about the alternative. A lot of my friends passed away while we were still young. There are a handful of them left now. On another subject, isn’t this Toya Tuesday?
