Dru didn't get one nomination for the BET awards. No surprise. They never really supported Dru Hill or anything. As least overseas, they get the luv.
Out of the 5 nominees in the category, I think one of these 3 should win: The Roots, Mary Mary or Floetry. I never liked the clipse and never will. As for the last nominee group: The group that BET supports because their record label couldn't promote them...: those b2 something or others.

Dru not being nominated for anything is indeed wrong! But then again, I'm not shocked.

You Know WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree wit ya whole compeletely, I think that its messed up that they didn't get one nomination for the awards, and they prolly won't be performing either(well that may be due to touring schedules) But I don't understand how there can be so many proclaimed Dru HIll fans and "I Love You" is still stuck somewhere on the charts at # 30 something!!
YO Wats the DANG PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TO All my DRU HEADS that haven't copped the album or requested the song PLEASE go out and DO SO!
I mean so far they are the only R & B group out their over the legal drinking age that are trying to make quality music that show and exemplifies the true nature of relationships and the ups and downs of them

Oh and BET is straight Trippin, they if you haven't noticed already are becoming like their sister station Mtv. They are not truly representing all of the urban artist like they claim to do so. I think Russell Simmons should come up with his own TV channel and play the h-e- double hocky sticks outta all the urban artiist that don't get love from Mtv and bet.

Well Spike Lee is boycotting BET and I think there's an online petition that you can sign and he'll take it to BET. I would love to sign it!

ME TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm like Jerry Miguire, " SHOW ME THE PETITION!!!!!!!!" LOL ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D iono why they be trippin on Dru like that, I'ma tell the truth the most that Dru gets airplay is on Midnight love... I also fault those of us who are not stepping up and repping our boys tot he fullest, I mean they got mad support on the net, but when it comes down to voting for them on 106&park, it just seems like we ain't doing enuff. Either we all ain't voting or there are a h-e-double hockey sticks of a lot more 50 fans out there than we can compete with.

I don't even think they count the online votes. I think the 106 & Park countdown is based on the top 10 songs that people on their staff likes and they decide to play it. Some of the artist who are up there shouldn't be getting up there so fast. BET supports a lot of artists so obviously their videos are going to be on the top list. (ie: b2k, their girly counterparts).
This just sickens me. Muchmusic's french station where I live respects Dru and plays their videos more often than BET ever will! There a host of a show who didn't like Dru hill and always put them down but she got fired! HAHAHA! Serves her right!

I know that's right LOL I am kinda shocked (but not really) that Dru didn't get nominated. Watch out ya'll! They are gonna be like the wack Soul Train awards where nobody shows up!!! I wonder if they will present an award? Probably depends if they have time. I hope they don't!

I think MTV shows dru more love than BET! The french channels show more dru videos. They killed out Sisqo's Dance with me. They played tah video almost everyday. They've played I Should Be more than BET. So in the long run.... Bet doesn't really support any artist from Def Soul.

When I saw some new guy named Sammy somethin' or anotha with some crazy song where the children kept screamin' "You Ain't My Daddy!" on the countdown today, I was like WTF?!!! C'mon now!

I know! what in the world is baby feat. Toni B. doing on there? That's as wack as they come! Dang Xaimara! I think Dru needs to know that info, I don't know if they know or not. They need to show the french some love!! And by the way, I have never seen the Dance For Me video!

Sisqo should know that the french love him. When he came to Montreal as opener for the bsb everyone was cheering for him. So the french "Aime le Sisqo!" Lol. I tried to convince him to come to montreal when I talked to him online back in 2000 but he probably forgot.
I like Toni but this song well.. first of all, its not Baby's. its an old song that they re-did and Baby just raps about the same boring a$$ things. "Bling, bling, rolling on 20 with the iced out grill etc..."
The dance with me video wasn't that spectacular. It was at an amusement park. Sisqo walking on buses. Looking at dancing cheerleaders, running from security with one of the cheerleaders who happened to be in a pop star group. Her name was Ivette but I can't remember the name of the group.
