Sometimes you just have to send a tweet to draft and keep it moving but BET’s Twitter page decided to take a shot at Nicki Minaj after her “rival” Cardi B become the first solo female rapper to win Best Rap Album. Cardi B is somewhat of a Cinderella storytelling a tale of a young Bronx dancer making her way from the stage, to T.V. to winning a Grammy for her first album, but instead of celebrating that, BET choose that as moment to tear down another black woman.
The unfortunate part of all of this is we can seem to have two great female rappers in this space and have to pit them against each other. It’s a far cry from Queen Latifah’s “U.N.I.T.Y.”. BET is now backpedaling faster than a cornerback guarding Odell Beckham Jr. after the hashtag #BETisCancelledParty has started trending.
Flip below to see the disrespectful tweet BET posted and deleted along with their attempt to apologize. Follow me on the Twitter @SBReports706.
