Damon Dash - Deprogramming BET New Show
There's another entertainment competition show on the block, and this time it's being presented by BET. The network's new series The Next Big Thing
is a show hosted by Charlamagne the God and features a handful of
young, talented aspiring entertainers who are hoping to become the next
chart-topping artist.
The Next Big Thing has their panel
of mentors that include hip hop mogul Dame Dash, Vice President of
A&R at EMPIRE Tina Davis, and super-producer Zaytoven. There will also be a bevy of recognizable guests who come in to help the artists along their journey including Joe Budden, the late Nipsey Hussle, Remy Ma, and Tamar Braxton.
If
you're familiar with Dame, you'll know that he can often be a
challenging personality that goes against the tide. He may not be
everyone's cup of tea, but the man knows how to make money, make money.
His time as one of the Roc Nation leading forces was an era in hip hop
that created dozens of hits, but not everyone is just going to let Dame
have his way.
