This is the small hat culture paying small minded money hungry, immoral females and males to attempt to destroy our image and culture globally. This is not our culture.
So are native tribal women in Africa and South America who wear little clothing and also gyrate trash and damaging their culture? You fucking dummies sound beyond stupid. Take the stick out of your ass and put it in your mouth.
I remember black actors actresses boycotting Hollywood to stop type casting us as street walkers and maids. What I saw at this so called awards show set us back 50 years.
I haven’t watched since I was a teenager. It’s so disgusting because our young girls don’t know the difference between entertainment and reality. Where the women go, the culture goes… we are in HELL. Thank you PBL for always keeping it 💯.
That is correct... Where women go, culture will go.... But as usual, it's gonna be men's fault for NOT curtailing the same women who cry sexism and misogyny.. Most people aren't aware of howculture works
Longer! To be honest, I stopped watching BET circa Free and AJ era or shortly thereafter. I just out grew it! I’m someone who use to watch it religiously when I was young!
It kills me because everyone wants to quote Brother Malcom. If Malcom X was alive today, a lot of our people would call him a misogynist and wished he was gone.
@paperwork_party If you're a POC you can't talk as if you're in a "population me" in reality lol you will be grouped into the community whether you like it or not! 🤣
I've been saying this for a LONG time now. We went from Gladys Knight, Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan, Diana Ross just to name a few of women who showed what it looked like for black women to show vocal talent, excellence, elegance and beauty to nothing more than ass shaking and "singing" about being a single mother, destroying families, being a street walker and degenerate behavior.
@@helbitkelbit1790 I know I missed a few other great names but those were just the few of the top of my head. But you, like many, get what I'm saying. Today's "musicians" aren't musicians. They are street walkers using the title musicians. Everyone sees it and are so freakin' tired of it. Bring back black greatness. Bring back black elegance.
Yup from Sam Cooke, Luther, Marvin Gaye, Michael Jackson JUST TO NAME A FEW to black men pushing death destruction, rape culture, pimp culture and gang banging, being deadbeats ect. The only difference is black men have been pushing worse for longer. There’s never been a black women to sell 10-20 million records pushing sex .. but doggystyle ? The chronic ? Y’all black men some hypocrites. In 1988 Whitney was saying “ I Wanna dance with somebody “ Anita Baker “ Giving you the best I got “ then on the whole opposite side of spectrum NWA and Uncle Luke where they preaching love ? Black men started all this negative imagery and messages being pushed now y’all want to blame women.
True, however this is what the young folks are watching. Not recognizing what is really going on. Taking black history out of schools, making it hard for black to reach a higher education, attempting to take black folks back to an era of times gone past. Its really a shame the direction this is going. If you have not, please seek the LORD.
I miss The Boondocks, they had it right all along about the destructive nature of BET to our community. I'm glad people are waking up and seeing it for what it really is!!

The sad thing is that we are doing this to OURSELVES. Black community hanging on by a thread. People waking up. We need to stop supporting this foolishness.
Tell me what is the vibe now what is the anthem of black community is song called " NOT LIKE US" what is the message of this song is separation, tell me if it was a white guys singing that. Brother and sister i dont need to say more. The devil enjoy destroying this community after 6 centuries of slavery seems like it is not enough for him he still destroying us
I only watched the Usher tribute and the entire time I felt awkward. I was a hard-core Usher fan for a good 20yrs but the entire time I thought to myself "Tyrese didn't want to sing a song?, so many Male singers and they asked all these women, then it's all sex sex and mediocrity". 😢 throw this "black culture" away.
Ikr!! Come on, Tyrese, Mario, so many great male singers! While I was watching I was thinking why are they using women to sing in Usher’s register when the guys would have done a much better job? Some of the women sounded downright horrible. Grinding on each other. Smh 😢
@@ToniJ.O My thoughts as well why were their Only Women performing Usher songs When their are so many talented men Lloyd, Neyo ,Miquel, Sisqo, Bobby V, New Edition some many other male artists. PB comments were so on point it look like Magic City . What is going on? Sad
It’s sad and disgraceful to our culture. These people are representing the black communities in a negative manner. Same here it’s been years since I watched the BET Awards. Please someone take it off the air❤
It was till they started letting trash in the door. they should have held their ground. Now the sophisticated folks go someplace else & hold their own private events that nobody is invited too nor do the outsiders even hear about any.
Unfortunately its going to keep getting worst year by year. I won't be surprised everyone will be performing with no clothes on and just doing the most and acting the fool come next year smh.
I haven’t watch it or BET for that matter for more than 10 years. They knew exactly what their goal was when they bought it to completely destroy it. Won’t be surprised if they start having sex during one year’s performance
Even the crowd at the BET awards looked horrible. You would think the awards would be the epitome of black entertainment today, judging how classy and great it was back in that day..sad.
I agree, I’m not from the states, but I think they dropped the ball in displaying how black people should be viewed. As a black man, there was not a lot to look at to be proud of
@@tezsginoExactly! They are no reflection of me. I represent the community I’m surrounded by and it’s none of that type of nonsense. Very educated men and women taking care of business! Those folk are a small number compared to the actual upstanding men and women.
Simple, short-sighted statement. It's a confluence of both, with long-standing systematic racism being the main culprit. This small cohort of low class individuals is just a subset of the great black culture, but is what's promoted the most by that same systematic machine. That's a problem because any Black American person is automatically stereotyped as one of them. No other ethnicity of people has to deal with this madness. Add on top the self-inflicted wounds, and you get what you see today. Crazy.
Drove thru some apartments the other day. Saw a girl no older than 4 bent over attempting to twerk in front of a little boy. She saw me and stopped. It’s horrifying and their mamas don’t care. That’s where those babies are learning this crap
I thought I was the only one who noticed the masculine energy from women. There was a lot of LGBTQ and stripper energy. Lauryn was the only respectable artist!!
not only BET. Black entertainment specially music (Hip hop) became a curse for black community and all these singers are the devil hand and tool to destroy us. without exception 99% of these black rappers are devils hand, devils voice to this community. Brother Martin and Brother Malcom on that top mountain looking at us are so disappointed to this race that they gave up their lives
Patti LaBelle, Aretha Franklin, Tina Turner, Whitney Houston, Janet Jackson all were the absolute top of the game and none of them had to dress like hookers or act like gutter snipes. The US has become a society that rewards bad behavior. The worse they are/act, the more money they make. I'm disappointed that our VP co-signed this. SMH.
So are native tribal women in Africa and South America who wear little clothing and also gyrate trash and damaging their culture? You fucking dummies sound beyond stupid. Take the stick out of your ass and put it in your mouth.

Thoughts on gangster rap ? And how black male rappers have been portraying women since before these type of female rappers existed ? ( Snoop Dogg, NWA, Uncle Luke all came out before Lil Kim who’s the first archetype of these types of female rappers)
Omg I am so happy you spoke about this hot mess. I couldn't believe they did this to the BET awards. I haven't supported BET since 106 and park Free and AJ edition was gone off air. This is the ultimate disrespect to black culture.
@JBoomer-pi6ml But the ones who do reproduce faster, in higher quantities and at younger ages. Using fear and intimidation they spread like a damn virus. But the most disgusting aspect of this for black cultures, is that it becomes the culture-the main one, not the underbelly like with other folks. Italians have mobsters, Japanese have Yakuza, Chinese have the triad, Latin American gangs have theirs too but they don't sing songs praising the sht and call criticism "r/cism." This crap has infected my country, too. Everything is about s/x, guns, drugs, and garden tool behaviour is so normalised it's impossible to weed out. The generation after mine is fked.
I mean they didn’t with drill rap or gangster rap.. before there ever was a lil Kim type of rapper, black women were singing about love and heartbreak, black men were disrespecting black women for the whole world to hear 🤷🏽♂️ most of those black men are out legends too smh
I don't care, I am going to quote a Book that many people hate these days: Deuteronomy 22:5 “A woman shall not wear anything that pertains to a man, nor shall a man put on a woman’s garment, for all who do so are an abomination to the LORD your God."

The sad thing is that we are doing this to OURSELVES. Black community hanging on by a thread. People waking up. We need to stop supporting this foolishness.
🙏
Tell me what is the vibe now what is the anthem of black community is song called " NOT LIKE US" what is the message of this song is separation, tell me if it was a white guys singing that. Brother and sister i dont need to say more. The devil enjoy destroying this community after 6 centuries of slavery seems like it is not enough for him he still destroying us
It’s to late ratchet rules all…
Amen 🙏🏽
The black community is gone. I will always think immigration was one of the biggest problems. A lot of terrible seeds aren't Black American.
I use to luv Taraji, nowadays she runs around like a teen, acting ghetto
She had my respect but she's been acting hella lame recently.
Yes Taraji is fucking annoying
@@jrt2792
The capital "L in LAME!!!"
SHE'S A LITTLE OVER 50 YEARS OLD AND NEEDS TO ACT HER AGE!!!
She wants to feel validated
She is a mess now. seems like somebody on drugs now
It hurts. Our beautiful righteous young girls are harmed by this. It is no longer about music. Its about violence and sexual perversion.
I only watched the Usher tribute and the entire time I felt awkward. I was a hard-core Usher fan for a good 20yrs but the entire time I thought to myself "Tyrese didn't want to sing a song?, so many Male singers and they asked all these women, then it's all sex sex and mediocrity". 😢 throw this "black culture" away.
Ikr!! Come on, Tyrese, Mario, so many great male singers! While I was watching I was thinking why are they using women to sing in Usher’s register when the guys would have done a much better job? Some of the women sounded downright horrible. Grinding on each other. Smh 😢
@@ToniJ.OLuke Jane's, Mario, and Chris Brown
childish gambino
@@donnac.3273Not Chris please. He is causing trouble anywhere he goes. No thanks
@@ToniJ.O My thoughts as well why were their Only Women performing Usher songs When their are so many talented men Lloyd, Neyo ,Miquel, Sisqo, Bobby V, New Edition some many other male artists. PB comments were so on point it look like Magic City . What is going on? Sad
“The first asian vice president of the United States of America”😭😭😭
It’s sad and disgraceful to our culture. These people are representing the black communities in a negative manner. Same here it’s been years since I watched the BET Awards. Please someone take it off the air❤
Along with these stupid "reality shows"
Thank you for talking about the Agenda… this is not a proper representation of the real average Black Woman🤦🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
The Devil is clapping his hands
Im convinced the devil is a she.

And laughing hard
You mean like how Sexy Red....Glorilla and "Big Mama" were clapping THEIR CHEEKS....hahahah...pathetic and stupid.
I don’t know why people watch this. Trust me 15 years ago to now it’s a completely different show and now it’s just softcore corn…
Even the red carpet is trash
@@hazelphinelamptey6322
👍🏿Yes it is, sickening🤦🏾♀️
Wasn't Saucy Santana on the Red Carpet?
What Happened To The "Sistas" Who Demanded The "Brothas" Clean Up Their Act In Rap?!?!?!?!
They’re now dancing to Sexyy Red with their daughters.

What happen to the sisters that had Class and dignity. ??????
They Have their Hands on their Knees.

I haven't been watching BET FOR OVER 23 YEARS..
Black
Embarrassing
Television
Or
EBT Television 💳
Same for me 💯
The Boondocks was a funny show but we are seeing all these years later that there was a whole lot of truth in those storylines.
I HAVEN’T WATCHED THE BET AWARDS SINCE 2010; ITS WITCHCRAFT NOT MUSIC.
Thats the last time I watched it too
I thought I was the only one.
@@Laughing_Individual YOU KNOW IT.❤️🕎
@@royaltylordprinceshamiyah1229 who’s your top 10 favorite rappers all time ? I better not see any gangster rappers
Remember the lie they told folks, the BET Awards was supposed to be more "black tie" and "sophisticated" than the Hip Hop Awards 😂
The Hip Hop awards should be cancelled too.
It was till they started letting trash in the door. they should have held their ground. Now the sophisticated folks go someplace else & hold their own private events that nobody is invited too nor do the outsiders even hear about any.
I stopped watching the BET Awards many years ago. This does not represent Black Excellence at all.
I myself have never watched the BET Awards, and I think I'm going to continue not watching. They can keep that 🗑️🗑️.
Right..So Sad😢
Unfortunately its going to keep getting worst year by year. I won't be surprised everyone will be performing with no clothes on and just doing the most and acting the fool come next year smh.
That's a lie. Everyone has seen at least one show in its 24 years.
I haven’t watch it or BET for that matter for more than 10 years. They knew exactly what their goal was when they bought it to completely destroy it. Won’t be surprised if they start having sex during one year’s performance
@@561REALTLK Nope. Not me.
Even the crowd at the BET awards looked horrible. You would think the awards would be the epitome of black entertainment today, judging how classy and great it was back in that day..sad.
They looked like they were at home watching the show on tv, they didn't even bother some of them to wear socks.
Gurrrlll, you hurt me bad with the first Asian VP in her Black Woman costume. You told NO LIES. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 Love it 😂😂😂
I agree, I’m not from the states, but I think they dropped the ball in displaying how black people should be viewed. As a black man, there was not a lot to look at to be proud of
I checked out of BET years ago. It just fell from grace so hard. And i see that im not missing anything
Thanks for exposing these evil women
❤❤❤
It’s sad
@@pinkbooklessons💯 FACTS sister.
she wrong ice spice father is fba so is like us
@@BLACKRULERSHIPthat is NOT a flex. 🤦🏾♀️
They just embarrassed all black women an lil girls
I wasn't embarrassed. I was and still ashamed and disappointed.
Best comment EVER!!!!
They're putting the message out that BW aren't to be respected and they are nothing more than prostitutes.
They're putting the message out that BW are not to be respected and are nothing more than sex workers.
@@tezsginoExactly! They are no reflection of me. I represent the community I’m surrounded by and it’s none of that type of nonsense. Very educated men and women taking care of business! Those folk are a small number compared to the actual upstanding men and women.
It's not an agenda, a lot of us black women willingly do this to ourselves. We are active participants for the most part.
It was an embarrassment to the culture
What culture would that be oh oh oh you mean cult you right on that one
Straight trash😂😂😂😂
I’ve always said racism doesn’t keep black Americans down in 2024, the culture they choose does.
As a black man I completely agree with you; but if you point that out, they will call you an uncle tom.
@@q.t.9819 I’m black too and I’ve noticed it’s the only thing they can say when they can’t make you submit to the “culture”.
Simple, short-sighted statement. It's a confluence of both, with long-standing systematic racism being the main culprit. This small cohort of low class individuals is just a subset of the great black culture, but is what's promoted the most by that same systematic machine. That's a problem because any Black American person is automatically stereotyped as one of them. No other ethnicity of people has to deal with this madness. Add on top the self-inflicted wounds, and you get what you see today. Crazy.
Totally disagree.. but that’s a long conversation
Absolutely!
Drove thru some apartments the other day. Saw a girl no older than 4 bent over attempting to twerk in front of a little boy. She saw me and stopped. It’s horrifying and their mamas don’t care. That’s where those babies are learning this crap
Ew, absolutely disgusting. I fear for the children that are exposed to things like that
that's horrifying - she's gonna end up victimized by some adult predator if she hasn't already 😢
I thought I was the only one who noticed the masculine energy from women. There was a lot of LGBTQ and stripper energy. Lauryn was the only respectable artist!!
No these people at the BET awards are NOT LIKE US. Remember that. Each one will sell you out.
This is the comment!
💯
Please bring back classy black elegance.
I wish.
In the dude's voice from the movie "Taken", good luck.
BET 2024 a disgrace to my race.
not only BET. Black entertainment specially music (Hip hop) became a curse for black community and all these singers are the devil hand and tool to destroy us. without exception 99% of these black rappers are devils hand, devils voice to this community. Brother Martin and Brother Malcom on that top mountain looking at us are so disappointed to this race that they gave up their lives
Disgusting and classless! Culture's biggest night was a DISGRACE.
Whose culture? Not mine.
Patti LaBelle, Aretha Franklin, Tina Turner, Whitney Houston, Janet Jackson all were the absolute top of the game and none of them had to dress like hookers or act like gutter snipes. The US has become a society that rewards bad behavior. The worse they are/act, the more money they make. I'm disappointed that our VP co-signed this. SMH.
If you remember those names surely then you’ve witnessed the SOUL TRAIN 🚂 awards. Black excellence
Our VP is trif.
Janet was suggestive though
not to this extreme but she was giving lap dances at her concerts.
Now I remember watching the bet awards when they all attend those were the good old days
Tina Turner dressed like a hooker for her time 😂
Those seats was STANKIN by the end of the night 😩
Shout out to the janitors. I am sure they were mainly men
The goal has always been to divide the black man and women, the powers that be don’t even have to destroy us anymore we do it to ourselves
Ashamed of the things we should be proud of, and proud of the things we should be ashamed of.
Bingo
Well put....
She said she in these streets😮😮... Its going to get worst before it get better Ms. Pink...Thank you for keeping it real all the time.
🙏
The VP said, they not like us, and is married to one of they.
Oops! THAT!
Doesn't matter when she is THEY too. 🤷🏿♂️
She needs to shut up. She doesn't even have a black card
Say it louder for the ones in the back!
All that part!
Don't even watch no more 🤷🏽🤦🏽
That rihanna pic was so classy omg. She looked so refined.
Late 50s Black male ,I remember a time that women demanded respect for themselves and other women smh 😢!
So are native tribal women in Africa and South America who wear little clothing and also gyrate trash and damaging their culture? You fucking dummies sound beyond stupid. Take the stick out of your ass and put it in your mouth.

Oh shoot, they found kamala. Dam, she has been missing for almost four 4 years
There preparing kamala to be president all the other tom foolery is to get people to look at then spring it out
I love when a black woman can keep it real💯💯💯💯
I like my black women being modest, feminine and fine NOT as 304s and trashy.
Guess the bedroom isn't where the magic is happening nowadays. Judging by the choice of attire.
@@robertprince2651Apparently it’s cool to be classless and have no morals in today’s age.
Teyanna Taylor was a big time tomboy back in Harlem growing up. When she met Kayne she changed her image
She is so dope ❤
Eyes are beginning to open wider!!!!
Exactly. Women need to keep they legs closed and they eyes open
PBL you called it exactly what it is A DISGRACE!! We as women have been taken back at least 60 years
Black women didn't act like this 60 years ago
Thoughts on gangster rap ? And how black male rappers have been portraying women since before these type of female rappers existed ? ( Snoop Dogg, NWA, Uncle Luke all came out before Lil Kim who’s the first archetype of these types of female rappers)
Or were they not taking us back ??
Omg I am so happy you spoke about this hot mess. I couldn't believe they did this to the BET awards. I haven't supported BET since 106 and park Free and AJ edition was gone off air. This is the ultimate disrespect to black culture.
My 90 year old mom was so upset about this as well she said she had to change the channel.
Lauryn Hill sent a true message when she came out fashionably covered, and NAILED it as a singer, writer, MC, and mother. ❤
I remember when the biggest problem on BET was who would win, now the biggest problem is how uncovered can they come.
Sad. Hopefully the Parents and Adults will speak up and take action.
They’re the same people that indulge in this content lmao
@@coffeebean4356 Not all.
@JBoomer-pi6ml But the ones who do reproduce faster, in higher quantities and at younger ages. Using fear and intimidation they spread like a damn virus. But the most disgusting aspect of this for black cultures, is that it becomes the culture-the main one, not the underbelly like with other folks. Italians have mobsters, Japanese have Yakuza, Chinese have the triad, Latin American gangs have theirs too but they don't sing songs praising the sht and call criticism "r/cism."
This crap has infected my country, too. Everything is about s/x, guns, drugs, and garden tool behaviour is so normalised it's impossible to weed out. The generation after mine is fked.
I mean they didn’t with drill rap or gangster rap.. before there ever was a lil Kim type of rapper, black women were singing about love and heartbreak, black men were disrespecting black women for the whole world to hear 🤷🏽♂️ most of those black men are out legends too smh
Classy and Sophistication have been thrown out the window. I blame our culture for accepting and glorifying this.
The term "Entertainment" literally means to distract. BET= Black Distraction Television.
I think everyone knows this
@@Woody2Times I figured I'd restate the fact.
Before the original owners of BET sold it to the highest bidder, it was a nice channel.
Entertainment = eyes is the window to the soul = your allowing garbage to enter through your eyes to your soul.
It means procession
I don't care, I am going to quote a Book that many people hate these days:
Deuteronomy 22:5 “A woman shall not wear anything that pertains to a man, nor shall a man put on a woman’s garment, for all who do so are an abomination to the LORD your God."
Deuteronomy didn’t need to talk about sporting underwear in public because even 5000 years ago in a land far, far away civilized people knew better.
Tell.iiiiiiiiiittttt! Whew!
Clock that tea!
Amen
Jezebel in full effect in our community
Facts 💯😔
The BET awards was our grammys; classy, honorable, respectful. Now its trash 😢 I hope kids didn't watch
Gone are the days of 106 & Park & Teen Summit!! Now we got the “EBT Awards show” 😢😞
Rap City....City
The best!
Thank you for calling this out!
Imagine how bad the BBL smell at this event.🤮
