De la Soul/Beatnuts Music video petition

"mama always said "neva mix music and business!""

"Play that ish!!"

"Finally, someone stepping up and rebelling against bad music. More power to you, Taurean."

"Its unfortunate that a company (BET) that has been a cornerstone of the entertainment industry for Black people no longer entertains me. They seem to have lost sight that we need to not only view Hip Hop as an exploitive form of entertainment, but instead"

"These are artists critical in the development of hip-hop as we know it... and without the Beatnuts... there would be no "Jenny From the Block" to have played on TRL or 106 n Park (she stole "Watch Out Now")... RESPECTtch"

"The time has come to bring hip hop back to the people, corporate control over a free speech entity (Like hip hop) is wrong on so many levels. Continuing to play the current mainstream jargon on the radio and music television networks will ultimately lead "

"I'm sure they have a team of people working on the demographics of their viewers, but it seems to me you can attract a much more diverse audience by playing more underground artists."

"De La and Beatnuts are better than 99% of the other videos they play"

"End the BS!! Give us the real!"

"save hip hop or watch it die"

"BET is nothing but a bourgeois negro network"

"support the founders....don't let america be told what to watch!"

"De La has always been one of my favorite rap groups. And I will continue to support them."

"de la soul deserves their recognition. theyve been around for almost 2 decades. how can u reject them??"

"yea BET let's perpetuate the ignorant black male image by playing the crap music that you play, is kanye west the only positive rapper in your book...morons, respect the art and respect greats like De La"

"True HipHop, nuff said..."

"People need to stop supporting Viacom all together. Additionally, should lobby major radio stations b/c I haven't heard one joint on the radio yet."
