Getting a BET Awards has been on J.I.D’s bucket list. During his 2025 XXL cover story interview, J.I.D spoke about aspiring to get a BET Award.
“I just want one off of the nostalgia of watching BET,” he told XXL. “That was the birht of my love for hip-hop, BET and all those type of stations. That would be cool. I just want a little nom. I ain’t never got one yet Tap in, BET. F**k with your boy.”
“I got three Grammy noms and no BET awards,” he continued. “What are we doing? What’s up, Black people?”
J.I.D has since garnered two more Grammy nominations.
