Hot take
BET (Black Entertainment Television) is a powerhouse media platform dedicated to amplifying Black voices and culture across television, digital, and live events. Their flagship BET Awards, celebrating its 25th anniversary in 2025, has become 'Culture's Biggest Night' with electrifying performances and cultural recognition. With a diverse content portfolio including popular shows like Tyler Perry's Sistas and original programming on BET+, they've created a substantial ecosystem for Black entertainment. BET Experience (BETX) further extends their reach with immersive fan events. While BET delivers important cultural representation, some critics note their heavy reliance on Tyler Perry content and traditional broadcast model in an increasingly streaming-dominated landscape.
