Overall, unfortunately, the nominations are reflective of the state of music....tuuuuurrrrrrrible (with a few exceptions)!
And er um...LL...you know I lub you...but Imma have to disagree with you. You think Lil Mama is better than Missy Elliott?!?!? for real?!?!?!?!? surely you jest

I cannot stand Missy! I just think she needs to go sit down somewhere.
I like Lil Mama for the kids ("Shawty Get Loose" is hawt ). I'll take her over Missy right now.
I just like Missy as a collaborator with female singers (Aaliyah, Mariah, Ciara) and Timbaland (but he abandoned her to make that looooong money!)

The BET Awards is always LAME and it looks like it will be LAME again this year. I wonder who the members of the nominating committee were. JEEZ!!

We gotta remember to keep in mind the current musical landscape.
This is all we have right now as far as nationally-known urban artists who made an impact last year.

Yeah...I started to have the same reaction as FM, but then I thought about this too LL. We gotta remember to keep in mind the current musical landscape.
This is all we have right now as far as nationally-known urban artists who made an impact last year. Hahahaha! My thoughts exactly! Best Group Danity Kane Day 26 Seriously?

Best Female HipHop Missy Elliott (not sure why she is nominated but I'm a big MISSY fan)
Best Male Hiphop Kanye West (I don't feel like hearing the shit if he doesn't win)
Video Of The Year All these videos suck if you ask me ...
Best Collaboration I’m So Hood (The Remix)--DJ Khaled f/ Young Jeezy, Ludacris, Busta Rhymes, Big Boi, Lil Wayne, Fat Joe,Birdman (This remix goes HARD)
Viewer’s Choice Lollipop--Lil’ Wayne (catchy)
Best New Artist Estelle (diggin her vibe)

Best New ArtistEstelle Flo-Rida Chrisette Michelle Soulja Boy What are your picks?? The show airs June 24th. Are you kidding me?? How can they even put Soulja Boy in a category with Estelle and Chrisette Michelle. And Flo-Rida ... I guess this category has nothing to do with the quality of the music

I think the Viewers Choice should go to Jordan Sparks and Chris Brown. That is my fave song right now.
