ATTENTION:

Stop with the mud slinging. Stop with the race card, and all the wounds that get opened up discussing race. This is not the forum or the thread for discussing such things.

You want to discuss black issues........ save it for politics and religion forum, by all means go and start a thread over there and save your rants and bickering.

This thread is the tribute thread, discuss the tribute put on by BET, Sheila E, the twinz, Shelby J, etc.......... don't let this thread get derailed. smh at the behaviour of some folks.

Is this how you really honour this man???

Keep it civil and stay on topic. Further action will be taken.

Alright folks, the awards is tonight!

I'm hearing a rumor that The Original 7Ven reunited for the Prince tribute.

Interesting, as I saw Morris, Monte and Jellybean in London just two nights ago! Very cool indeed if they kept it under wraps that they've reunited with Jam, Lewis, Jerome and Jesse.

Glad to know I am not the only one watching GoT and taping BET.

With the "performances" (song playing in the background) for the pre-show I am not having much hope

I don't have a DVR so I'm just going to watch the awards and watch the repeat of GoT when it comes on an hour or so later. I'm just going to have to stay off the internet so I don't hear/read any spoilers.

gotta see what the org critics say first

So Tracy Ellis Ross just said it's not going to be a tribute as in a segment, but it's going to be scattered throughout the evening. That means as soon as they make you cry and you get over it, they will make you cry again.

Debra Lee said the celebration will be in 4 segments. And several people interviewed during the red carpet have said there is a"rumour" that Bouncy is going to perform during one of the segments... Not trying to set y'all off but just be prepared LOL

LOL I'm just putting it out there, and I know how the Org gets down when it comes to her LOL

If she performs I feel mixed, on one hand I think someone who is huge now should make a loving gesture, and on the other Bey just has to be in the mix-- and that annoys the hell outta me.. Her only saving grace with me is I know she was a fan and had great respect for him.. And it would tickle the hell me to see her do Nasty Girl

And here we goooooooo

Is there anyway to watch this live without an extensive cable package? :\

well i guess beyonceeee is opening,ohh lawd...peoples gonna be mad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im not a Beyonce fan at all, but this is a pretty badass opener.

Yeah, the live stream is for the red carpet and "moments" only. No live stream link there for the actual show.
