Paramount no longer selling BET | Diddy, Byron Allen, Tyler Perry & other bidders notified

[I Really Mean It]

selling entertainment networks to entertainers is lowkey a bad idea. like, artist run labels rarely do well for this very reason. It's sad the only black people with any capital are...entertainers.

some of the most successful labels have been run by artists. wtf are you talking about?

I’m calling cap Day 1. They was never selling to Tyler and this was all a show for both parties.

they haven't gotten as far and you know this is a fact

Theres a reason they carry so much stigma and theres usually a fall out

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Its the smarter move anyway. Cable TV is dying, and BET has little to no mindshare of younger generations.

He would’ve been able to buy it then. They’re just trying to overcharge for some reason. Tyler is mostly the reason BET is still eating now. I’d leave them alone if I was him just pull everything and go somewhere else

 

[Voice of Reason]

Those small hats are really something else

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Do it and he will find himself in the same predicament as these other streaming services are in bleeding money.

That’s what I don’t get. People are saying cable tv is dying and streaming is taking a hit too cause the prices are getting out of hand. I wonder what the future will look like.

Probably because VH1 is part of the package as well and u know VH1 is home of ratchet tv with all those love and hip hop shows and other fukkery .

They’ll keep it for awhile then unload it next year

The streaming companies will bundle together to make the new version of cable companies
