What if B.E.T. were to honor Hip-Hop as well as Vh-1 does?
Here’s a few thoughts on tonight’s taping of Vh-1’s Hip-Hop Honors Awards and why all the honorees were deserving of their recognition for a myriad number of reasons.
TERRENCE came through and shot up the red carpet. Okay, I mean shot using his movie camera, and the carpet was actually purple and not red. Not a royal purple either, more like an eggplant nightshade type purple.
MARVELOUS MO held it down for DP Dot Com. I can’t wait to see her footage. She looked so stunning that Fat Joe only remembers me because I was standing next to her.
KEV CLARK remains omnipresent when red carpets are in effect. Peep some of his pics…
We were sited next to B.E.T.’s “Black Carpet” coverage team again. I didn’t make a point to talk through their uncharismatic hosts like I did last year and GOD rewarded my goodness by letting me see Vh-1 staff boot B.E.T. off the carpet runway to behind the steel barriers.
Vh-1 staff keeps their shit real nazi-like for the press. We accept that treatment for the access and the crafts services. F.Y.I. The roasted chicken and the vegetable lasagna were excellent. As usual, I made my way to the V.I.P. area where the kick ass hors d’ovaries and the free drinks were. 40 Diesel was there going in hardbody on the souvenir cups.
I caught a few minutes of the performances between my double-fisting and free dinner. It’s fun to be a fan of Hip-Hop. Most of the people in the VIP area were still working and politicking. The new event is now the Hip-Hop Honors afterparty where the entertainment industry people rub elbows with the night’s performers.
Basically, everyone that has been together for the last 12 hours hangs out for another 4 hours. I’m sure someone is charging this to overtime.
I’m certainly not.
It’s only 6am and I have only processed three video clips. Sleep? That shit is the cousin of death.
I wish I could quit you Hip-Hop [ll].
