Record Setting Nomiations


Rapper Lil' Wayne continues to set as well as brake records within the music industry. The New Orleans born rapper has set yet another record with 18 BET Award Nominations. This is among the most nominations for the 2011 BET music awards. Only other artist to come close to Lil' Wayne record number of 18 are Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa both with 9. Can we say that Weezy may be living up to his self proclaimed "Best Rapper Alive" crown?

The BET Music Awards were created in 2001,which makes it relativity new when you think of music awards such as the Grammy's and the MTV Video Music Awards. Looking at the history that these other two award shows have neither of them has even had an artist nominated for as many awards as Weezy.  The late great Michael Jackson holds the Grammy's record for the most nominations with 12. In 2010 Lady Gaga broke the MTV Video Music Awards with 13 nominations and taking home 8 out of the 13.

When measuring how successful an artist does within a year we look at album sells and award show nominations. Well we can say that Weezy F. Baby is having one of his most successful years ever. With the release of The Carter IV selling nearly one million records in its first week and now 18 nominations for the BET Awards, its hard to tell Weezy that 2011 has not been his year in the music game.

Weezy we congratulate you on your record setting BET Award Nominations of 18 and on your platinum-selling album The Carter IV!
