Donald Glover called out the BET Awards over his lack of wins, pointing out that despite the amount of Black-centered content he churns out, he still shares the same number of honors as white, English singer-songwriter Sam Smith.

Glover, who goes by his stage name “Childish Gambino” for music, took the stage on Sunday to present rapper Killer Mike with Album of the Year. But before getting to that, the “Atlanta” star said he “wanted to get some things off my chest.”

“This isn’t personal, but I just feel like I should have more BET Awards. I’m serious. It’s the Black Entertainment Television Awards,” Glover began.

    Seems like Childish Gambino needs to put out a song called “The BET Struggle” next.

    Why are we caring about BET awards when it’s been owned by a white company for years? Is it REALLY BET when that is the case? They have control of OUR NARATIVE? Big surprise that they have invaded the space we want for ourselves and make it about them.
    Let BET go. It’s not ours anyway.
