Kanye leads in BET nods, Samuel Jackson to host

NEW YORK — It's a family affair at the upcoming BET Awards: Kanye West has the most nominations with seven, while his mentor, Jay-Z, earned five, and Jay-Z's wife, Beyoncé, received six.

Jay-Z and West collaborated last year on the album "Watch the Throne." Their songs – "In Paris" and

"Otis" – are up for video of the year. Beyoncé has two nominations in that category with "Love on Top" and "Countdown." The fifth nominee is Usher's "Climax."

The nominations were announced Tuesday in New York.

Samuel L. Jackson will host the July 1 award show, which will be held at the Shrine Auditorium in Los

Angeles. Chris Brown and Nicki Minaj will perform.

Other multiple nominees include Brown, Lil Wayne, Drake and J. Cole. Maze featuring Frankie Beverly will receive a lifetime achievement award.

I've been saying that every year but I still tune just for the fuckery that show give us something to talk about the next day. The nominations alone is worth a thread.

The best female hip-hop artist nominees is shameful. Really BET??

I honestly watch for the Lifetime Achievement and Humanitarian segments. But now that the Lifetime Achievement segments have become so watered down, I still commit myself to not watching it. It just puts a bad taste in my mouth. The categories themselves are just....elementary at best. But what do you expect from award shows nowadays? What do you expect from BET?

The only category that I have a liking for this time around is honestly the "Centric Award." I hope Robert Glasper gets it. He deserves more recognition.

He's a great artist. Been in the underground producing stuff for cats like Erykah Badu, Roy Hargrove, Me'Shell NdegeOcello, Q-Tip and others. His new album is one of the absolute best of 2012. Check it out!

I wonder if Sam will end up calling somebody a "muthafucker" before the night is over. lol I'd watch the whole damn thing just to see that if I knew before hand it was going to happen.
