Not ONE nomination for Nicki?! LOL!
BET retired Nicki’s seat picture. Debra L. Lee personally took it out the her Mercedes Benz after work popped the trunk and put it in (smacking on a Life Saver)….lol. ;p
Before you cardi ass kissers post on my b**** Nikki……
Bet the same show who f***** over Diddy legend award gave it to Mary Blige she not s*** compared to Puff Daddy… The world of Nicki Minaj is soooo much greater
Are you serious? Mary j Blige has 8 multiplatinum albums 80 million sold 9 Grammys 2 Oscar nominations so what do you mean Diddy deserved that? All he’s done is create other artists, only to throw them away as quickly as he found them. He is not legend as an ARTIST. He’s a legend as a mogul. But, he isn’t going in the books as one of the best rappers. So, sit.
Nicki wept
Well deserved. ❤️
I can see Cardi will atleast 5-6 awards. Congratulations cardi b!!!!
The name of some of these awards?? I swear BET is just a channel for black people to embarrass themselves. Is BET owned by a black person?? Cause this s*** ain’t right. There needs to be a black awards show where it shows respect and dignity to black music not this s***!!!
Uh…the BET Awards is respected, as well as the Soul Train Awards. So, let’s not, please.
RAP’S IT girl winning across all levels and getting the recognition she deserves ! congratulations to Ms. CARDI B!
?only cuz they know she’ll show up & potentially give them some viewers, no other big celebrities shows to the hip hop awards lol
Hatin ass ????
No onika, that career with Anna Nicole Smith now lmao ???
I won’t be watching.
Mary j Blige has 8 multiplatinum albums 80 million sold 9 Grammys 2 Oscar nominations so wtf u mean Diddy ass deserved legend award stupid ass
exactly, i thought he was joking
Queen ??????????
Wow! Smh. Congratulations to ALL of the nominees. Even though I don’t think “The Carters” should have been nominees for ANYTHING in 2019 at the hip hop awards…. please make it make sense…. Like the era isn’t even recent…. makes no sense.
.
But besides that, I don’t see why Nicki couldn’t get nominated for at least “Hustler of the Year”, Lyricist of the year or even album of the year… DJ Khaled SHOULD NOT have been nominated for the album of the year category. Smh. I honestly didn’t believe that Nicki hate train thing but now I do have questions..
There is no Nicki Hate train. However, Nicki did create a Lil Kim hate train 10 years ago. Is she upset karma circled back around and picked Nicki up at the bus stop? Aww. Cardi is here to stay and Nicki’s career is…well…with Anna Nicole Smith.
Shout out to lil Wayne…..
ion know why ppl confused about nicki not getting a nom. she picked a fight with everybody in the industry including her label and managment and a fashion brand, had a failed tour, and ppl still don’t know what happened to the rest of it. nothing she did as the Queen, alone, stuck to the wall. No award performances, cardi hitting num 1 multiple times and getting a grammy and an abrupt retirement that isn’t really a retirement. if there is a hate train nicki is driving it.
THIS!!! Nicki Minaj did ALLLLL of this to herself!
Who look better, Nicki or cardi??
Nicki mi mutha f***** nah is prettier
When Nicki was being recognized by BET regularly her fans ate it up, but now that they have gone radio silent on her their awards and recognition are irrelevant. She won for 7 years in a row and she was celebrated, and now that she is not nominated at all it’s all kinds of conspiracy theories. Maybe this year was just not her year it happens to all the greats but it does not take away from her past accomplishments or her legacy. I just think that Nicki needs to regroup and make the public hungry for her again.
Who cares? Bet is a joke these days, check out their plummeting ratings.
The barbs didn’t consider BET a joke when Nicki was winning year after year, did they? Hmm..
wtf is a BET awards? lmao!
Pretty much the only awards Nicki Minaj has received…along with a couple of VMA awards. But um, yeah 92% of her awards are from BET 🙂 You know who they are, hun 😉
What happened barbies no Nicki Minaj cardi B top runner with most nominations wow I guess it’s clear cardi sat y’all Barbie down too bad she raps way better then Nicki anyway poor Barbies
And nominated off a old over a year n half album that’s a slay ??????????
What you mad Barbie dolls get old and go out of style kind of like yours did shame on her
Flop
No thanks, half the line up doesn’t have any talent.
Yet the main nominee is a Grammy winner n yo broke ass ain’t nobody to call something a flop ?????
Grammy winning talent ??????????
I love cardi b for real.god bless her and her family. I love her daughter I love the way she is. She hood but she classy nasty .that mean she 100 look at her video. Look at how she doing things. Rapper trying to act. Dancing on the pool on stage she does what she believes in.that’s me I’m not changing for nobody. I love the Lord and I’m bless so I’m going to be me. I just love how real she is
