Last but not least we have to get into the Champagne Papis nominations. Drake has four nominations, including Best Male Hip Hop Artist, Best Collaboration, and Video of the Year for Way 2 Sexy featuring Future and Young Thug, and Album of the Year for Certified Lover Boy. While several other artists were nominated, Lil Nas X is disappointed in not receiving any nominations at all. In a now-deleted tweet, the Industry Baby wrote,
Thank you BET Awards. An outstanding zero nominations again. Black excellence.
Many fans of the rapper took to his defense, calling out BET for not including him but nominating Jack Harlow. One wrote,
BET Awards didnt nominate Lil Nas X but know who they did nominate? Jack Harlow. Another tweeted, Lil Nas X, was the most streamed male artist of 2021, did not get one nomination, but Jack Harlow and Bruno did? BET Awards and NAACP Image awards tea is CLOCKED.
As the conversation continued, Latto expressed her excitement about being nominated. The Big Energy rapper tweeted,
Oh s**t. Im nominated for two BET Awards.
Roomies, how do you feel about Lil Nas X not being nominated?
