2008 BET Awards ~ The Good ~ The Bad & The “A”
The BET awards aired last night, and unlike last year…there were no major arrests. There were however, some major disappointments (*cough* Usher) but I won’t focus on the negative. What I will focus on is the great performances:Ne-Yo…Ne-Yo..Ne-Yo! You know you did your thang! Alicia Keys bringing out TLC, SWV and EnVogue was genius. Maxwell…where you been man?! 
and you know I have to mention Jeezy, Ciara, Ludacris, Big Boi and all the A-town players just for GP!
Check out my favorite performances after the jump and also peep BlogXilla’s play by play of the show over at Crunk&Disorderly.
Rihanna bet awards 2008 performance
Ne-yo bet awards 2008 performance
Al Green Tribute (Maxwell)
ALICIA KEYS bet awards 2008 performance
Chris Brown’s BET Performance w/Ciara Usher’s Disappointing BET Performance – Love in This Club
I promised that I wouldn’t say nothing bad about Usher…since everyone else already has that covered…but he coulda at least let Jeezy do his verse. Maybe that would have made this performance a little less lack-luster. That and some Red Bull.

The performances were really good and the production was the best ever. I couldn’t even tell that it was put on by a black run organization.
You all know what I mean.
