The sooner people realize that BET is only a puppet for Viacom, the clearer the puzzles get.

I def command him for going in with the intentions to change the coonery of the scene,,,,,but its not that simple, its ALL a corporate chess game, their main objective is MONEY and money only. As long as their “urban audience” are collectively passive and except whats givin to them no matter how 1/2 assed it is, then there’ll be more of the same bullshit,,,over & over again, fuck development, fuck integrity.

I stopped blaming BET for the daily Uncle Tommery,,,,its bigger than them, WAY BIGGER.


CORRECTION: The company is ViaCON. wink


ViaCOON. biggrin

lol

But ViaCON is right too.

They bring someone in from a place called "HipHopDX" to make a change? Hell, that's not change, that's contributing more to the problem.


You don't see the point. Websites like Allhiphop.com, HipHopDX, Worldstarhiphop, dubcnn.com, etc. - these are PROFESSIONAL hiphop websites who more in touch with the hiphop/R&B fans and they know what they want.

BET should be thankful that somebody from any of these sites wants to come through and help them, but no, they aint. It dont sound like BET.com is getting as much as views as those sites either.

As someone already said, BET is a lost cause. They say BET is a negative and disrespects black women, well guess what - BET is run by a black woman, and I'm not surprise the men who work there are getting emasculated by typical power-hungry bitches

Oh, and by the way, google another former BET employee named DBrad - he used to be a program director for BET. Stephen Hill (one of the BET executives and Boule member) tried to have sex with him - he confirmed with a few years ago. And like the recent former employee said - its all about relationships and kissing ass when working at BET, so I guess if you're not part of the orgy, then you're a problem.


When I said contributing to the problem, I wasn't referring to the type of shit hop they play. I was referring to the fact that the only music they play is shit hop. There are other forms of black music out there besides just shit hop.
