<p>Apparently, the reverend isn’t done. We’re waiting for the third panel to start and this dude just strolled onto the set with a mean limp.</p>
<p>“Aight, Nigeria,” he joked while greeting Lola Ogunnaike. “What’s good? That’s my peeps right here. Got the green and the white.”</p>
<p>Rev got swag for months, but on a more serious note.</p>
<p>“The fact that you got the UK here. You got Nigeria,” the reverend told BET executives. “That’s hot!”</p>
<p>The current panel featuring Banner, Ogunnaike, Deelishis, Talib Kweli and Lyfe Jennings, deal with relationships between black men and women.</p>
<p><strong>6:52 p.m…</strong></p>
<p>The truth is, my music is best when it’s sexual and violent, Banner confessed.<br />
“If black people make horror films, why can’t I make horror music?”</p>
<p><strong>7:10 p.m…</strong></p>
<p>Ok, so I won’t name no names, but recognizable faces are shocked at how much sense Deelishis is making right now. She just made a very interesting comparison between “Flavor Of Love” and “The Bachelor.”</p>
<p><img border="0" align="middle" width="350" src="http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l306/HDMUSIC/Delishis.jpg" height="263" /></p>
<p><strong>Deelishis&#8230;</strong></p>
<p><strong>7:15 p.m…</strong></p>
<p>Uh oh! This one may turn into a battle of the sexes. Here are some good quotes from the exchange.</p>
<p><strong>David Banner:</strong> “In most cases with these men, you know what type of men they are when you lay down with them.”</p>
<p>Chuch! Reverend Rivers agrees.</p>
<p><strong>Lola Ogunnaike:</strong> “I agree that women need to pick better mates, but men need to be better mates.”</p>
<p><strong>7: 20 p.m…</strong></p>
<p>Wow! Talib just called himself, “I think I’m a very handsome dude.” LMAO! Again, the reverend agreed, “there you go, Talib! Yeah!”</p>
<p><img border="0" align="middle" width="350" src="http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l306/HDMUSIC/TalibKweli.jpg" height="263" /></p>
<p><strong>Talib Kweli&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>This panel is the most interesting yet. Sorry if I’m being a bit vague. You’ll just have to tune in to see for yourself.</p>
<p><strong>7:50 pm…</strong></p>
<p>This panel deals with the image of black women in videos featuring Angel, Sticman, David Banner, L. Stanley of Ethnicity Models, Lil’ X and my bauws!</p>
<p>“I think we’re beating a dead horse with this issue. We’re always saying diversify,” Kim told fellow panelists. “How many times you gonna see somebody make it rain onstage?”</p>
<p>Whooo hooo! Go Kim!</p>
<p>“We need to see more female artists,” she added. “We need to see more video directors. We need to see more executives.”</p>
<p><strong>8:15 p.m…</strong></p>
<p>Hmmmmmm! Angel just said she uses videos as a “stepping stool.” No comment!</p>
<p><img border="0" align="middle" width="350" src="http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l306/HDMUSIC/Angel.jpg" height="263" /></p>
<p><strong>Angel (aka Lola Love)&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>Poor girl! She’s trying to get her point across and everybody keeps trying to save her. Well, that’s enough spoiling for one day.</p>
