shyt would have you making love to whoever is in the room with you
I was over my cousin's house and she had just broken up with her boyfriend and......nevermind
I already knew it was a wrap when i introduced my homeboy to her. They hit it off instantly. When they were sitting on the couch and midnight love came on, I left because I knew they were about to fukk eventually
What a fukking slut
they think negroes don't watch the news or they don't want the BLACK NEWS outlet competing with a white one they already own...
VH1 went from targeting one demographic extreme(Old white men) to targeting another demographical extreme(Young adult black women). I've never seen a channel shift comparable to VH1 in my life. And it's crazy how smooth it happened. I remember as a child watching those old 60's, 70's and 80's videos. Songs from groups like the Monkees all the way to 80's hair metal like Guns N Roses. I remember shows like Pop-Up Video. Then nostalgia driven shows like I Love The 90's. And then in the mid-00's they started showing Reality TV. Surreal Life, Flavor of Love, then Rock Of Love. So even with the reality TV, they still had cac-oriented reality TV. And I remember the adult contemporary countdowns. But then towards the late-00's they started showing the basketball wives/love and hip hop kinda shows and it was a wrap. They saw how many folks tuned in for the ratchetness, so they went full throttle with the shift. But I didn't notice the shift until after it happened. So it felt seemless. Til this day, I can't think of another channel with that sort of demographical shift.BET's change is the most depressing, but VH1's is the most drastic.
I remember that shyt used to stand for Video History One. Nothing but old (white people) music.
And then they switched it up so they were the Adult Contemporary station. If I ever got curious about what white people were listening to, they had me covered. I remember they used to have a top 20 countdown on weekends, and some Weird Al Jankovic song was number one for a hot minute.
But now? That shyt is THE spot for all the ratchet shyt.
There are a couple Black owned cable networks, like Bounce TV, but they're usually low budget & don't offer much original programming, sadly.
I know about the black owned networks lol but none of them are leading in black pop culture the way bet use to imo.
True, but why do you think that is? Could there be another BET someday?
Not traditionally that is why I think it would have to be online old people are the only ones watching tv traditionally now. I think tv is becoming antiquated.
I agree. I think it would be hard to get some online content that EVERYBODY would watch, though.
