BET Bans Rick Ross’s “Hold Me Back” Video
By Jonathan Sawyer / News / July 23, 2012 / 3673 Views

It appears that BET will be giving Rick Ross no love for the video to his track "Hold Me Back." After the above trailer surfaced online, word has since been let loose that the network will unfortunately ban the controversial footage. The flick's director had this to say regarding the situation:

So BET rejected Ross’ “Hold Me Back” video. It’s incredibly sad, because the video is incredibly special & real. You’re killing US BET. Smh. Everybody ask BET why it’s ok for them to play “Boyz N the Hood”, “Menace to Society”, and “South Central”, but not Ross’ video. What does BET stand for? You should have two answers for that question.
