Music video director, Oladapo Fagbenle recounts how he was bounced at the #BETAwards last year, but this year didn’t only get nominated but aattended.
“Exactly one year ago, I went to the BET awards with Wizkid and Sesan Ogunro, a fellow music video director. I had rushed to the Beverly Center to buy an outfit and everything. I felt FRESH! We pulled up to the red carpet and the sun hit my beard. I knew it was going to be a good day.
“Long story short, I was denied entry, no pass for me. Shit was so embarrassing. I had to delete my snaps and play it off like I had somewhere else to be. Wizkid and Sesan felt bad so I trekked to the other side of the Staples center to call an Uber home. I sat in the Uber contemplating how I was gonna shit on everybody. Grind mode activated.
“Yesterday I was nominated for two BET awards with my people, Migos. I didn’t win video of the year (congrats to Beyoncé) or viewers choice award (congrats to Beyoncé), but it’s all good. Shout out to my guys, Migos for winning ‘The Best Group award’ though. What a difference one year makes. Don’t fold. The is unlimited.”
