i knew a guy who worked their said the show isn't rigged per se', BUT the network have executive veto power to axe a song that was legitimately eligible. supposedly because certain songs don't qualify to fit their new restrictive programming (basically radio friendly SAFE pop sh*t, and new YOUNG artists). so basically you can vote all you like. but there's no guarantee that BET will play it.

i knew a guy who worked for BET's top 10 tv show 106 & Park, he said the show isn't rigged per se', BUT the network have executive veto power to axe a song that was legitimately chosen due to online voting. supposedly because certain songs don't qualify to fit their new restrictive programming (basically radio friendly SAFE pop sh*t, and new YOUNG artists). so basically you can vote all you like. but there's no guarantee that BET will play it. the network has also been known to black list (or give limited exposure) certain artist that was deemed too intelligent for teens.



KoRn's music video cover's this.



One Corporation Owns The 5 Major Video Channels In The U.S.

Only 4 Songs Are Added To The Average Radio "Playlist" Each Week.

Hit Songs On TOP 40 Are Often REPEATED Over 100 Times A Week

98% Of All #1 Singles Are Less Than 3 Minutes and 30 Seconds Long., primarily to fit in more commercials

The FCC was unfairly targeting hip-hop to inforce tougher censorship. particularly the anti-authoritarian,and or socio-political rappers. but FCC and MTV was less draconian regrading video's that showed scantly clad women and other sexually charged images, and lyrics.
