There's no more record companies to groom singers, young people dont even try to sing for a living, nobody dances anymore - women have to get up & group dance and the biggest reason nobody plays instruments in the hood anymore so no more song righting and no music in inner city schools

As soon as Vicom got a hold to BET, it was a done ✅ deal..The diamond 💎 club don’t care about black people. They wanted to mold us into stereotypes and jokes for the world 🌎 to see on TV and over time we accepted it. Now all we got is Thugs and 304s and our so called educated celebrities talking like Thugs and 304s. It’s sad 😔 to be honest.

Listen to this vIdeo , he's explaining how they used OUR OWN CULTURE against us. A very sad realty but this what is Happening as of this very moment. THE WAR IS REAL.❤️🖤💚✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿 FYI.... BET IS NOW OWNED AS OF THIS MOMENT BY A EUROPEAN FAMILY NAMED REDSTONE LOOK IT UP.

OLD SCHOOL! u miss watching the jackson 5 cartoon, still got them on DVD & VHS. The Original Bill Cosby show from the early & 1970s most definitely BET news.

No RG3 clips

They were destroyed by y.t. Anytime something uplifts BLACK PEOPLE yt will do it's best to keep BLACK PEOPLE DOWN!

Most of them move on to become famous movie stars like Will Smith made Men in Black and Martin Lawrence made Big Momma house. As a Jewish white guy I grew up watching Black movies like Comedy, Action, Drama and Horror. But the only Black sitcoms show I watched was Everybody Hates Chris and Blackish. Because it wasn’t until Don Cheadle who played War Machine from Iron Man introduced me to Fresh Prince.

Whats the 411 album started it

We need more black tv.

HIP HOP POP

Golden Age of BET '88-'90! I stopped watching when AJ & Free quit 106 & Park. Don Cornelius left "Soul Train" due to a Shift in Content. Black middle class withdrew their money

The answer is YES. R&B is officially dead.

I blame the corporations labels radio station and the fast food fans...

Womēn are out here telling men that being in love with a womān makes them weak. It’s ridiculous out here.

Just like a plant needs sunlight to grow, the main ingredient that’s required to create pure R&B is love. If love is being labeled as thirst by the same women that are out here making men feel guilty for liking them by calling them thirsty, then how on earth can R&B be created when the admiration and the main ingredient which is love for blāck women, inspired the creation of it to begin with? Fēminism ruined pure R&B and blāck American love and culture. It’s infuriating to see it play out in real time. It’s real life depressing.

Ariana grande she is white girl rnb

Dojo cat rnb rap pop

Cable is dying and so is BET.

As long as black people are singing, R&B, music, soul music, blues country will never die

RnB music my beloved genre of music which Identifies who I am and where i come from.The death ☠ of it was especially sealed when the King 👑 of it was arrested, I don't want to mention the name, real lovers of the genre knows who I am talking about,if you don't mind you can mention the name on the comment! but as one of the 90's rnb artist said: Donell Jones "life goes on". I'm gonna keep it alive with what I have throughout the years!!😢😢

"It's what on in the background" - BET

Great informative video.. more people should know what a hard fought battle against racism has occurred.

It wasn't just Boyz ll Men made a blueprint to the white boybands, but JODECI as well. NSYNC "Drive Myself Crazy" music video is a homage to Jodeci's Feenin music video and AJ from Backstreet Boys definitely got his swag from KCI.

Feminism destroyed r&b

I miss the old days of Bet😭, 106 & park, Cita’s world, Access Granted, Hell date, Comic view, Rap city, Midnight luv, and College Hill to name a few shows. I also enjoy the variety of movies that they use to show and feature small film makers as well. Bet awards use to be a staple to watch once upon a time. Everything is sad, like you said Tyler Perry’s degenerate movies/shows dominate bet amongst the other horrible shows they currently have on the network now.

10:32:to give you some TV history here, this was the late 90's equivalent of something named "The Rural Purge" that happened in the late 60's early 70's The networks got rid of all their Middle America type sitcoms(The Beverly Hillbillies, Green Acres, Petticoat Junction etc) to aim for more higher end advertisers and larger eyeballs(sound familiar?) And thats why you had stuff like All in The Family, The Jeffersons,Maude,Mary Tyler Moore etc. The Networks threw away their black building blocks sitcoms to shoot for a Whiter audience

R&B died slowly over time when computers took over real instruments.. and old heads gave up teaching new heads how to sing.

I don’t know why some celebrities get into fights and act ghetto on reality shows going on now when they’re already actors/actresses or singers. It makes no sense. They don’t have to spend time arguing with others on tv. They can spend time pursuing their careers and other ventures.

BET FELL OFF THE MOMENT ROBERT JOHNSON SOLD THE NETWORK TO PARAMOUNT / VIACOM

BET(Broken Excruciating Tragedy)

Rest In Peace Aaliyah

Aaron Magruder is right, no wonder why he hates BET.

BET started being trash in the 2000s. I stopped watching around the mid-2000s

Desmond's was the only awesome British tv sitcom to watch on BET. Rap City was also awesome to watch on there as well.

AJ & Free both quit…not fired.

Free was so fine. Dammit!!!

I definitely agree !

I miss R&B

We sound like we’re in the same age group, older millennials. I went to sleep to the radio too, Power 99 in Philly with Golden Girl was our R&B station and WDAS played the Quiet Storm with Tony Brown (RIP)

Bet is just another Democrat run station

I loved your list and thanks for the video. However Michael's death should of been #1

It's a battle and it always will be because they're trying to erase our culture. Record execs love these new "artist" nowadays, because to make their music is cheap. All you need to make a hit nowadays is a beat machine and synthesizer. While most real artist, like Jill Scott, Eric Robeson, Raheem Devaughn , Kindred the Family Soul, you have to pay for a band to make their music. Cheap and easy will always win out. That's how the Cardi B's, Doja Cat's, Drake's and Kanye West's can pump out music every other month.

I think the internet too has changed how artist operate they can be more independent now without signing to the major labels its still r&b out there you just have to look for it online you not going to get much of it on tge so called mainstream media outlets

Great informative video.. more people should know what a hard fought battle against racism has occurred. 👍

Very informative 👏🏾

The Bet I grew up on had music videos and we also had good programs that mattered. Teen summit, video soul 106 and park and much more. We need the old bet back!!!!

Yea bro those were the best times best days ever miss them

10:08 Like Lil Nas X Drop a Diss Track Aimed at BET for Not Being Nominated for His Award He Be Liked "F**k BET"

Most of the best R&B is in the Indie space. Foreign Exchange, Eric Roberson, Carmen Rodgers, Deborah Bond, Carlitta Durand, BeMyFiasco, and others have dropped dope music that continues to keep the genre relevant to many dj's and music heads including myself. I don't think it will hit the heights of days past because anything that paints Black love and life outside of pathological or sexualized imagery isn't marketed or backed by the "industry" in a consistent way. The few artists that are allowed through (Silk Sonic, H.E.R.) are outliers, but will never be the main again.

He started going downhill and they sold it to CBS Viacom let’s keep it real. Give me example of white people purchasing a black company and making it better. I’ll wait. Cosmetic companies magazines. Every time they buy one of our companies the quality goes down.
