The list of nominees for the 2012 Negro Awards have been revealed, and, no surprise, Illuminati headliners Kanye West and Beyonce lead the pack with seven and six nominations, respectively. So far Chris Brown and Nicki Garbaj have been announced as performers, but what I am hoping is that after that horrible tribute (if you can call it that) to Donna Summer by that nobody Natasha Bedingfield, BET will do her right by giving her the proper tribute the underrated singer most definitely deserves.
The 2012 BET Awards, which will be hosted by Samuel L. Jackson will air on July 1.
