In a series of since-deleted tweets, the rapper called out the network for leaving him out of the nominations despite the success of his debut album “Montero.”
After the list of BET nominations was announced on Wednesday morning (June 1), Lil Nas X took to Twitter to vent his frustrations at the awards show for snubbing him for a second year — and on the first day of Pride Month, no less.
In a series of since-deleted tweets, the rapper called out the network for leaving him out of the nominations despite the success of his debut album “Montero,” which hailed the hit singles “Montero (Call Me by Your Name)” and “Industry Baby” featuring Jack Harlow. “Montero,” was also nominated for five Grammy Awards this year.
“Thank you BET awards. an outstanding zero nominations again,” he wrote, adding an ironic “black excellence!”
