Nicki Minaj Explains Why BET has Failed Hip Hop

by Daryl Nelson

Earlier this week, Nicki Minaj broke down her definition of a "miserable, jealous hater." Then on Thursday, September 9, she seemingly blasted BET for not nominating her song with Drake and Lil Wayne, “Seeing Green." 

She sent the tweet after the network released its nominations for the BET Hip Hop Awards.

If you mention “HipHop” in 2021 & don’t mention #SeeingGreen that tells me everything I need to know.

“If you mention ‘HipHop’ in 2021 & don’t mention #SeeingGreen that tells me everything I need to know,” tweeted Nicki.

But she still may get a BET Award seeing that BIA’s “Whole Lotta Money (Remix)" was nominated for best collaboration and song of the year, a cut that Nicki features on.

Do you think "Seeing Green" should have been nominated and if so, how come?
