It’s that time of the year again.
This summer–as it has been for as many summers as we can remember–the BET Awards will be the place to be, the award show go watch, and several moments waiting to happen, as some of the biggest names in mainstream hip-hop & r&b will come together & commemorate yet another year at the forefront of the culture. With the festivities set to take place June 29th at The Nokia Theater in Los Angeles, BET had granted The Source the opportunity to reveal the nominations of three of their major categories, which you can check out below.
