Debra Lee and her small mouthed, monotone voiced self was everywhere yapping about how the BET Awards was going to be a tribute to the legacy of Michael Jackson, however they only had three days to put so
mething together. So instead of say...cutting out Souljah Bout (tell 'em) and doing an all star tribute song or something they chopped and screwed the show into last minute bits and previously arranged performances.

First off i'd like the point out that Jamie Foxx was on point! You forget he's funny because lately he's been "blaming it on the goose". Completely dressed up in MJ swag, telling a funny, yet moment appropriate story, moonwalking...YES! Jamie. Get it.
The first fail of the evening...
New Edition including Bobby Brown, singing Jackson 5 songs. OMG. Besides the random on point dance moves, everything else was a negative. Were they even singing? Because all I heard was the background instruments and the occasional note in falsetto. I guess Bobby Brown needed to do some performances to buy pampers for his 1 million kids.
Everything about Keri Hilson bothers me, her look, her voice, her looks...so everything she does is a fail. because she is a lame.
After her came Beyonce who is on the U.S. leg of her World Tour and clearly didnt have anytime to create a new performance so she just stripped one from her show. I wouldve loved to see single ladies, and some Sasha Fierce....or even her and Destiny's Child, (with Latoya and Latavia) singing Never Can Say Goodbye or Butterflies or something. THAT wouldve amazed me.

Or Dru Hill, Jodeci groups that I know you took the effort to get together.
Where is Chris Tucker in all this? "Chris, I can get her, I can get the girl"
Souljah Boy, respect your elders and wear a white glove or something...
Jay-Z, can't diss Hov.



Pretty Waaaanggs, your pretty Waaaanggss...everyone loves that song. A+ Maxwell, still wondering who's gonna clean up the feathers.

Monica and Keyshia Cole. Smh. C-
Johnny Gill, Trey Songs and Tyrese. YES! YES! on point, they killed the O'jays songs, killed. I want them to release a single. A+++++
*side note, why did Don Cornelius introduce them as the young o'jays like Johnny Gill and Eddie Levert aint the same age?*
For it to of been Aubrey's ahem, Drake's first real life performance, if you cant walk, cancel. BET wouldve just gotten Tevin Campbell to come out and sing Heartbreak Hotel or something.


Besides Ne-yo, Jaime Foxx, and the O' Jays tribute, pretty much everything else was garbage.
