Fasho Thoughts:
- Last year, Beyonce performed “Freedom” live at the BET Awards — this year, the song is nominated.
- The awards ceremony will cap off the annual BET Experience at L.A. Live in Los Angeles from June 22nd through the 25th.
- Chance has done so much to make his mark in the last year that he doesn’t really feel like a “new artist” anymore.
