  Congrats to all the honourees!! They’re well deserving of it These are the people that the youths of my generation should be looking up to and try emulating. Class, Dignity, Humbleness, Sophistication, and the list goes on, NOT this foolishness that’s being protrayed nowadays

  THANK YOU Trent! None of these other blogs are posting anything on the BET Honors and this is the most positive piece of news we have right now. We can always count of you! Of course my Mimi would be last, but we always save the best for that place. She looked amazing. Roc and Nick were cute, Kelly did better than I expected, and Patti almost made me cry! Beverly Kearney was truly an inspiration. Stevie is and always will be a legend. Spike doing his thang. LOVED the poem tribute to Miss Maya. I loved how each woman spans different generations- young and old. Tuskgee Airmen finally getting their shine, it was just amazing!
