I think we expect too much from entertainers when they are given a short span of time to showcase their work. He performed Don’t Wake Me Up and sang live which is what everyone complained about in his previous performance. Minus the autotune towards the end, I thought it was actually well done. In addition he performed Turn Up The Music for all the loyal fans that purchased the single and wanted to see it performed live and I thought his entire team did a good job. Outside of a few award performances, I think he shines the best when he is in concert.

I liked the NM and MF performances, couldn’t watch the GOOD Music and MMG ones all the way through, so far this show is interesting.

I thought that overall the show was a ghetto, unorganized mess as usual but the Whitney tribute was very respectful (outside of Brandy and her awkward dance moves) although I thought that it was a little weird that they chose to exempt “I Will Always Love You”. The only other thing that I would criticize would be the fact that they basically nominated the same group of people over and over again for almost every award that night. They really should consider closing the “Best Female Rap Artist” category until Nicki actually has some competition, she shouldn’t just receive an award every year for simply existing and managing to remain halfway relevant.

BET Awards is the biggest award for most of black artists.

Nicki killed it cuz she stepped her choreography up. Plus all the stars were there watching her.
Beyonce, Jay Z, Kanye, all of YM so she was gonna feel a little self conscious and had to kill it. I think ppl are saying she killed it cuz she’s usually subpar live. If this is the best nicki can do she’s needs to step her game up with her weak ass. I’ve seen better performances than this.
Brandy gave life and did whitney justice. Didn’t bother watching Monica’s performance. Just not a big fan. Chris Brown same.
Melanie Fiona was killing it vocally.
Cissy gave a touching performance for whitney.

Melanie Fiona !!!!!!!!! … and I never paid her any mind.
Usher was okay, I can’t get into his live version of Climax .

I ONLY liked that “Brandy”, gonna check this bitch’s discography , Nicki was decent and tolerable, imma give this bitch her damn credit ” see ppl , i can do it !!!”. sadly i didn’t watch the other performances tho cuz i was busy and not a proper link has worked when i tried to watch it , Usher made me feel like i got Punk’d or something , his performance left me wanting more … , yes he killed “climax” and did wonders when it comes to hitting notes , but i wanted him to perform “Lemme see/scream” after “climax” , just like when that creature called “Nicki” did a mash-up of her 2 flopped songs.
and I really Started to like Bey’s personality , the fact she stood up and jammed to almost everyone’s performance says a lot about her and putting those “diva-mentality” theories to rest , she looked so sweet and humble. i hated the fact she didn’t dedicate her award to her fans tho.
Overall , it was Ok and put out so nicely.

Ok, I just watched the performances that I hadn’t watched on another site (I’ll keep it cute and not mention which site

The Whitney tribute was amazing. I loved Monica and Brandy and the whole thing was very well organized and respectful.
Chris Brown brought his A game and his set was risky for BET’s standards, so I applaud him for that. But what was he thinking when he decided to perform the only 2 pop songs off of his whole album at a show for urban artists?? ‘Til I Die’ is out there flopping and ‘Sweet Love’ is underperforming as well. He could have promoted one of those songs or chosen one of the other 10 r n’b songs he’s got on his album to perform. I’m not throwing shade, I just think he wasted an opportunity.
And last but not least, where the FUCK was Ciara? I thought she was going to perform! I don’t care if ‘Sweat’ is a buzz single, a promo single, a real single or a nonentity. She needed to be on that stage! Isn’t this her big comeback? I’ve been rooting for her and I’ll keep doing so, but she has to give us something.
Anyway, my favorites were Melanie Fiona, Brandy and surprisingly Nicki Minaj.

Wow, I didn’t even see the WH tribute in full, only Brandy ! But I just saw it, Monica nailed it ! I see a lot of peeps are shocked by MF’s performance. That woman is talented, and tonight it was her time to shine ! She saw that Rita was being more promoted while she was being neglected, and she was like, “F that ! I’ll do my own promo !” And she’s damn right, it’s about time ! I got her second album, it’s really good !
Otherwise that was an amazing tribute to Whitney, may she RIP!

Chris, Chaka, Brandy & Monica gave boss perfromances. The Rap parts of the show were just trash. I miss real Rap/ Hip Hop.

chris brown was a maaaaaaaaaajjjjjjjjjjoooooooorrrrrrr dissapointment, his singing was NOT to its high last night and im so fucking tired of that ‘Turn Up the Music’ song. Where’s ‘Sweet Love’ or something else. actually the Fortune tracking list is wack so its whatever…i left mid-way of his performance after i RANN to see it…..
Nicki Minaj was of theeee chhhhhaaaiiiinnn…he intro to Champion was to die for. literally. and the Beez in the Trap choreography, i GOTS 2 learn that. everything about her performance was on point, from the songs to the dancing to the wardrobe to the hair…
Usher sang THE FUCK outta ‘Climax’ unlike Breezy…he didnt even need 2 dance or nun because i was already in love
The rest of the performances…..bllllaaah, who cares
The awards were wack because fans dont vote 4 em, except the fandilenium and coca cola ones…and clearly they arent basef of the music, but rather more WHOS in the category…but we all Know nicki is gonna win Best Female Hip-hop on everything until, like she said on her acceptance speech, bitches step they dick up…im mean at least she encouraged them…chris brown DIDNT deserve male R&B, it was between Trey & Usher, now THAT was fixed. *cough cough* Diamond. Trey’s ‘Heart Attack’ AND Ushers ‘Climax’ were waaaay more R&B than Browns ‘Sweet Love’ altho i love that song…oh well, until next year..

Ok I agreed until you said Trey’s heart attack and Climax are way more RnB then Sweetlove, Like really bitch? Chris should not have won? I dont know maybe if they played sweet love rather then Turn up the music in the nomination then I would have let it slide…that performance was still wack though.

Ok… I’m going to say my review on the BET Awards…
I didn’t like the opening act. Big Sean, 2 Chain, Pusha T and Kanye? Really? Is this the BET Hip Hop Awards? They could’ve got a better opening act than that. An opening act that someone that we can remember and haven’t seen in a while. Kind of like when The Fugees came out in 2005 and no one expected to see them… Smh. They really could’ve done something better than that.
I didn’t like Usher performance…. I do like Climax, but why did he have to perform the WHOLE SONG though? Usher is supposedly recognize for being an ENTERTAINER a PERFORMER. Why couldn’t he perform one of his uptempo songs? Why didn’t he dance and give us an entertaining performance? He could of did a melody of Climax and than perform one of his uptempos. Smh.
I’m not a huge fan of Gospel, but I thought it was ok. Not good. Not bad. Just ok.
I think next was D’Angelo’s performance…I didn’t like his performance either. When he first came onto that stage and started singing “How Does It Feel?” I thought he was going to deliver a good performance. But WHY did he SHORTEN that song up and STAYED on the other song TOO LONG?!?!?! Smh. How Does It Feel is what D’Angelo is KNOWN FOR. WHY DIDN’T HE PERFORM THAT WHOLE SONG? AND WHY DIDN’T HE PERFORM “LADY” and “BROWN SUGAR”,etc. What the HELL was that last song he performed? NOBODY knows. And WHY did he kept going ON AND ON with that SHOOBOODOO type SHIT when he had OTHER CLASSIC SONGS that people were LOOKING FORWARD to HEARING? Everyone, and I mean EVVVERRRYYONE was looking forward to D’Angelo on Twitter and Exspecially on the Red Carpet, but he just disappointed ME and I’m sure everyone else. His performance was WAY TOO OVERLY HYPED UP. I really thought he was going to deliver. Smh.
I’m not sure but I think Melanie Fiona was after him. Her performance was ok . I’m not a fan of Melanie, but which ever song she sang was good. I knew Melanie Fiona could sing good AKA her very first single but I didn’t know she could sing LIKE THAT. She did good and reminded me that R&B music still has a chance.
Hmm… After her was Nicki I think. I was actually prepared for Nicki to give a bad performance, but I thought she did good. I really love the first song she performed, “Champion”. Beez In The Trap was good too, but I was pissed how they kept bleeping every curse word WAAAYYY TOO LONG. But her performance seem calm. She needs to perform more like that often.
Not a fan of MMG and I wasn’t into their performance…
Not a fan of Maze and Frankie Beverly but I guess the tribute was ok….
I think after a while Chris Brown performed. I was disappointed with his performance. He performed TWO POP SONGS ON THE BET AWARDS. Why didn’t he performed “Sweet Love” or why didn’t he performed “Birthday Cake” and brought out Rihanna as a surprise guest? Everybody would’ve been talking… I was just underwhelmed. His performance was too short and he didn’t bring it like I thought he was going too. And performing Pop songs on BET Awards isn’t the place for that. I expected more. Smh.
Whitney Tribute was last I believe… Bringing out Mariah was ok. Monica performed a gospel song… I didn’t like it. Well, I thought she sang it good but WHY didn’t she sing one of Whitney songs like IWALY or I Have Nothing? I thought her voice wouldve been good for that. They could’ve left the gosepl songs to Cissy and Whitney’s brother. Brandy did good, and so did Chaka but I felt like that tribute was TOO short. WHY COULDN’T Beyonće AND Mariah be apart of the Tribute PERFORMING?? It would’ve made it COMPLETE and they focused MORE on Gospel than Whitney songs. I understand Gospel is Whitney’s roots but…. I wanted to hear more WHITNEY SONGS being performed.
The host Samuel was WACK and BET knew it cause WHY did they have to bring out Kevin Hart again to do the skits and bring him out to talk? Smh. If BET wanted to get a GOOD AND FUNNY Host for the BET Awards, they could’ve choosed Martin, Chris Rock or Tyler Perry AKA Madea. They do NOT know how to put shows together and it is Debrea Lee’s fault and Stephen Hills.
The BET Awards was not all that this year. It really could’ve been better. Smh. And if you actually think that this was the best “BET Awards Ever” than you must not have that much knowledge and you need to look back on the previous BET Awards. The audience kept me more entertained than the performances. Shoot, Beyonce entertained me more and she didn’t even performed (even though I wish she did). Plus her and Jay’s cute little competitive battle for Video Of The Year, lol! And not to mention when Jay pulled a Kanye on Kanye during his speech!! Lol!
But this awards was WAY TOO OVERLY Hyped Up. It seems like BET always do that shit and when you are excited to watch the awards and you finally do, it don’t even be as good as you thought it would be. We didn’t even have SURPRISES. You can include Mariah, but that was the ONLY surprise and BET is usually known to give more. Smh. The rating for this show was a 3 or less. I was disappointed.
