BET…Fail.
AUDIO By Gotty™ on June 30, 2008 at 9:33 pm
No, I’m not talking about the Awards show from the other night…because I didn’t even watch it, minus when I happened to be flippin’ channels & caught the tail-end Wayne’s performance .
It looks like some of BET’s corporate sponsorship finally heard the cries of millions who felt like Black Entertainment Television didn’t represent the best interests for anyone in the supposed demographic. Thus, the sponsors have decided to pull their advertising dollars from the station.
According to Paul Porter of media watchdog group, Industry Ears and CNN, Proctor and Gamble, Pepsi and General Motors pulled their ads from Rap City and 106 & Park after the companies viewed “The Rap on Rap,” a content analysis of BET and MTV programming.
The study found that children were exposed to violence, profanity or obscenity once every 38 seconds.
“It’s geared for kids but the content is for adults,” Porter told HipHopDX. “That’s what the study shows.”
I’m assuming these sponsors must have just recently decided to tune into the station to see the material they show. It was so inevitable though, it didn’t take Nostradamus to predict something like this happening.

^ Good looks Wit, I just watched Kidulthood the other night… You always coming through in the clutch!
that Nigguh Wit-E-Beats all wayz on top of his Game..
wutz Good Fam-a-Lam ???
matter fact Wit-E- is the
dude that put me on to this site…
good lookz Fam…cause i mught not agree with
errie-thang they be saying here…
but it feels good to be amongst like-minded folkz….
I gave up on B.E.T. a loooonngg time ago, like pork and soda, that shit is poison
they done jumped the shark around the mid ’90’s…
the key is balance…
there was equal parts candy & medicine…plus, to me, bak in the days, there was always this underlying theme of self-empowerment & self-determination….responsibility….
Grandma could watch during the day and not be offended; hell, she might could even get down to some Tribe or Al B. Sure
I concur w/ ey’body else: clean it up during the day, make it as close to wholesome as possible and bring back the unpure stuff and niche programming like Unkut (ll) and save that shit at night for us nocturnal pervs and hip-hop heads
Good looks for the Jigga, E. What’s the quality?
the production quality has always been sub-standard at best, fro B.E.T., even after the Viacom acquisition.
How can Viacom own both MTV AND B.E.T….MTV gets Gucci loafers while B.E.T. gets a pair of bo-bo-ass Pro-Wings
you already know that the production quality for all MTV programming is impeccable….if B.E.T. is gonna shove trash down our throats, they could at least make it all shiny and glossy instead of hood & ghetto like that Eli Porter “Iron Mic” clip
Black Entertainment Trash.
*sigh*
I’m done with TV. Internet supplies all my needs…
and wants. LOL
I’d rather eat balut than watch B.E.T.
on 2nd thought….
quality is good on the jigga, i also posted the dvd rip of the video footage, but those links are caught up in the spam filter right now…
Mo, good to see u round these parts fam.
one thing is for certain
Food Network >>> B.E.T. >>> Fox News
Ya know its funny that these sentiments are always overwhelming whenever BET’s brought up no matter what I’m doing. I can’t believe word has never got to em’. Or maybe they just don’t give a fuck…
they need a jenny jones make over than a mutha-f*cka !!!!

lmao.
“they need a jenny jones make over”
^ wooooow, highlight of daytime TV

Robert Johnson’s the baddest pimp since Berry Gordy. I did a gig for BET once–they didn’t pay nobody but Paul Mooney.All the rest of us got jerked.
All dude does is by up wack syndicated programming and bootleg videos–they cheaper than springing for original programming. The advertising and co-op dollars boost the profit margins. Just make sure you’re in all the markets that people buy basic cable packages are in and you got a winner.
it’s audio-video crack for white/non-black viewers –who still outnumber black cable viewers 2:1 (4:1 when Robert Johnson started BET….
^ that makes absolute sense from a business standpoint
Im trippin at how people keep talkin bout bringing UNCUT back…I miss it too!!!
Like Tigallo said “black people are notorious for wanting it both ways” but in all honesty if we want BET to be better and a positive representative of the black community then ALL that bullshit has to go, hit the reset button.

“When we getting White Entertainment TV???”
^ welp….there’s White Women Entertainment TV AKA Lifetime
and who is “we”? lol
Yall gotta check out that J-Shin uncut video called Baby Mama Drama. I don’t think it was ever on BET Uncut tho.
W.E.T. White Entertainment Television is NBC… ABC… CBS… VH-1… Lifetime… Bravo… QVC… Oxygen Network… NASCAR Channel… Golf Network… etc.
Yo, I know this is parting from the BET bash we’ve got going, but Al Green’s performance at the awards was pretty dope.
Other than that, I’m with all of you about bringing back Uncut.
And WTF is up with that Tyga ad on top of the page? He’s got a dating service or something?
^ lmao @ Canseco
true indeed.
Gotty n nem on that payola… dumbin’ down for dollas!
lol!
I think E.T. hit the nail on the head. The key is balance. I’ve been saying that. whenever I get into convo’s about the music scene, too. Radio and T.V. are dominated by whatever the kids want. These parents are pushovers and buy the kids whatever they want to keep them happy. Some say that’s a good thing, but I’m old school. My mom didn’t buy a damn thing for me or my lil bro until we stopped asking for shit.
Damn Canseco… how you gon’ go and forget Fox on that list? That’s way too big a fish to be left as merely an “etc”.
Since I’m such a movie geek… you others may appreciate this:

@OED: Fox News is a given, B.
now I have Geezus’ I see booty in my head. Thx alot, Gotty!
I see booty. I see booty!
BET fell off once Viacom took it over. What the fuck did y’all expect??? A big, faceless, white-owned conglomerate juggernaut actually giving a fuck about the community to which it broadcasts??? That’s unheard of!!! Like I said before, get Free & AJ back and get Joe Cleezy back on Rap City (plus Big Lez with her chocolatey ass!!!), make another Tavis Smiley type news show, and create a black late night talk show like the one they had with Rachel and Michael (I forget the name but it was great!!!).
ps: Uncut stays!!! Those cats that apear on that show can’t rap for shit but you’re guaranteed to see some thick-ass chicks making it clap!!!
Best part of BET unCut:
Watching ‘dem vids slam straight off at 2:56am and gettin’ bumped by Bobby Jones Gospel Show!
I luv the Lord. I luv church. but lawd, them folks couldn’t sang worf a lick!
You’d watch that and think, “bring back the skrippers!”
say, good lookin out on the diplomatic immunity stray shot…. been tryin to download that shit for a MINUTE….

and Sheeeit Flea, while you’re at it, bring back Sherry Carter, Rachel (so fine in a bathing suit she ain’t need a last name), and my favorite, Madeline Woods….
Straight Ass and Class.
BET = Hot Hamster Vomit!
anyone got that Right Quick by Jim Crow? Or any other kind of early Polow-produced shit? Big ups if you can find it for me.
and Donnie “White Lines” Simpson…
BET never did invest in a news department. Robert Johnson’s idea of News was Ed Gordon behind a coffee table reading magazine headlines off a chalkboard under heat lamps.
Robert Johnson is a cheap SOB if there ever was one. With his old Fred Sanford business plan havin azz.
I second Be Lund. I copped Jim Crow’s first jawn and it was straight. They have a song w/ Juve when he was just coming off 400 degreez and still hungrier than a hostage. I think it had Bone Crusher on there too. But I digress. I heard a Jim Crow song on the Underground Railroad show here in Tampa one night that was that piff! It had a techno beat a la Outkasts B.O.B. Anyone with info would be helpful.

David Banner Put On Freestyle
http://www.zshare.net/audio/14478206b4cbb9ef/
Dude needs to go back to the pre MTA2 days. He had great “balance” with his records back then. I’ve said it before on here, but that Crooked Lettaz album was slept on criminally.
Whatcha mean E.T?
I was so happy when BET came to Be now i wish it was gone..Im ashamed at what it has become.
I wonder does anybody who worked at BET put that on their resume other than as a caveat for why their reels suck?
Black Family Channel is gone… A couple other black start channels are gone. All that’s left is WORD–black gospel network…
Lmao, word to BET Uncut.
Other than the basically naked chicks in 90% of the videos, there were some decent indie songs that appeared on that shit.
A little “Hip-Hop” for you whipper snappers:
Binary Star - Master of the Universe

@ Tru…my bad….that was for Canseco’s comment above yours
BET should change its name to KET cuz the Klan luvs it.
yo that killa mike ‘a millie freestyle’ went the hardest (ll) out of all 28 of them versions, including jigga/jada/loso/cory gunz…
dude went in (ll) on wayne, and might’ve taken a shot at hov too… “i dont care about the father/or his heir” (c) killa mike
I figured it out E.T. I was looking that shit up at first like “wtf did he say?” I smoke too damn much. lol

I find it hard to believe that Killa Kill from the Ville is still slept on. But he is. He’s got me AMPED for the song w/ Ice Cube! And he’s shooting a video.

Man i vote to take BET off the air. Seriously i hate it… I blame Bob Johnson for it. and secondly of course Viacom, who have totally commercialized what used to be black television. All the pretty colors and corporate sponsorships and aint shit worth watching. and for the record fuck 106 and park…
i was always a rapcity (with big tigger) fan….
FYI
B.E.T. is part of the Viacom Family and NOT part of the MTVN Family.
They (B.E.T.) operate with the CBS arm part of Viacom.
