Trina Had Some Beef With BET And Openly Expressed Her Feelings About BET On Her Twitter
["f*ck BET......," she tweeted Wednesday night (May 18).
["@DiamondAtl muuuuuuuaaahh!!! :) Thanx doll and congrats!!! I'm really proud of you! xo" (Trina's Twitter)]
Stephen Hill Recently Came Out And Brought The Truth To Light About Trina Not Being Eligible For A BET Award Saying She Didn't Follow The Rules To Be Put In The Nominees.
["Okay, that was because Trina didn't submit a video that was in during the eligibility period. Let me back up. To be eligible, here's what you have to have: a video that's submitted and then first played on BET...between April 1 of one year and March 30 of the next year. So for this eligibility period it would be April 1 of 2010 to March 30 of 2011. She did not release a video to us in that time. "Million Dollar Girl" came in March. I think it was March 12 or so of 2010. And so she was in last year's nominees for that. While she was featured in Lola Monroe's video, the rules are you have to release a video of your own. You have to be the primary artist on it. You can't be just the feature artist and be eligible. So that's why Lola Monroe was eligible but Trina was not for this year because it came out this year. So I've reached out to her camp. I've talked to the head of her label. And actually the only reason I might get off this call is because I may be getting a call from Trina while this call is going on." (BET)]
Trina Had Been Backed By Some Other Female Hip-Hop Artists And Hill Asked If He Was Offended Any By Them Backing Her Up..
["No, no, honestly," Hill added when asked if her supporters upset him. "Because they were all operating off of false information basically. They all believed that Trina was eligible to be nominated. I love that. They were supporting each other. Far too many times in hip hop people want to tear each other down or not support each other. So even though it was at our expense, you have all these women supporting each other in the hip hop field. So hopefully people will feel better once the truth comes out, once they realize that there was no eligibility there. But absent that, if them not knowing the rules fostered some camaraderie, I'm all in." (BET)]
