BET 25th Anniversary

last night I watched the Anniversary show.it was great seeing Donnie Simpson back.Robert Johnson was Honored all through the show as the founder of BET.it was very Important then&as it is now at having a Black Network that focused on the News from a Black Perspective because far too often the Black voice isn't given the Proper view&take. now don't get me wrong BET ran alot of it's own talent away for various reasons&last night I could tell there was some mising voices&a certain emptyness there.but the Performances that stood for me last night were:R.kelly who just showcased His Musical genius covering His career.Earth,wind&Fire did there thing&were the first Video played on the Network.New Edition including Bobby Brown did there thing.there was a nice Gospel perforamcnes as well.steve harvey did a nice tribute to Luther Vandross&like Steve harvey said we use to call him Luffa.it was a night to remember over the past 25 years of what BET meant,what it means&also going into the future.a toast to BET.it's been a Interesting journey thus far.
