Bow Wow has expressed his aspiration to be engaged in a high-ranking management position at BET. The veteran rapper, whose real name is Shawn Moss, said that the black-affiliated station has lost its vibe, forgetting what made it the prevalent TV show to millions of citizens.
“BET forgot what made them HOT! The MUSIC!!! breaking artist etc… music shows that mattered. Now its [sic] like lifetime. Just a bunch of sitcoms. Do you know the only time there is music on BET IS when there is an award show? Think about that. Like 3 x out the year. Thats [sic] crazy!” Bow wow posted on Twitter.

Bow Wow wants BET to hire him, says the network has lost its way
Even casual Bow Wow fans know by now that the veteran rapper is prone to occasional bloviation.
Shad Moss’ latest stream of consciousness involves his desire to be hired as a high-ranking executive at BET. He says the Black-centric station has lost its way and forgot what made it indispensable TV fare for millions of urbanites.
Bow Wow, 34, said Black Entertainment Television no longer includes the ingredients that appealed to many folks and therefore made it strong, such as: “Cita’s World,” “Rap City,” “Midnight Love,” “Video Soul,” “College Hill,” “BET: Uncut” and “BET Next.”
