Now, jamie foxx was hilarious, point blank. His solo with ne-yo was brilliant. My overall general rating of it would be 2 and a half stars because it wasn't entertaining, now i didn't expect it to be anyways because last years was just plain HORRIBLE. There were definitely performances that i liked; Ne-yo both times he performed. Kerri Hilson was alright, she shouldn't have sang with out the beat at the end though, that ruined it for me.
Who else performed ?
Umm, Beyonce was good i guess, i think the song she sang was in like french or something so nobody understood what she was saying.
Monica & Keyshia Cole i didn't not like, i like the lyrics of the song but every time they sing together i don't like it.
Drake & Lil Wayne, i didnt see the point in them performing Every Girl cause everything would have to be bleeped or cut out so i didnt get that, Always Strapped was good i like that song.
Now, the 2 performances that i really wanna talk about first Soulja Boy i have respect for him now cause he did his thing and went out there SOLO which few people ever do and usually he has at least like 3 other people with him AND he changed his style which is a good look for him so Kudo's to you! Second is JAY - Z , do i even need to say more he always performs well doesn't care what other people and needed to come back and lets these "rappers" turned singers know that autotune is not cool, maybe on 2 tracks but not the whole CD, if your supposed to be a rapper nobodies asking you to sing or change your voice do it naturally and if you cant naturally then don't do it. But point blank i lovee Jay-Z and his new single.
And thats my take on the BET Awards 2009,
