Behind The Scenes
BET have reversed their last minute decision to pull the airing of Mavado's "So Special" video from its flagship 106 & Park show, and have now confirmed they will be airing the video as "New Joint of the Week" this coming Tuesday, March 3rd.
"In some ways the timing worked out even better!" said manager Julian Jones-Griffith. "Mavado's album Mr Brooks - A Better Tomorrow is released on March 3rd, the same day the video will air, so hopefully it will give it that extra push."
BET's decision to pull the So Special video after advertising it's airing irked fans around the world, many of whom skipped work early and cancelled appointments to tune into the show, only to be disappointed.
After much back and forth and re-editing the video has now been accepted by the top brass at BET and passed for inclusion in Tuesday's 106 & Park.
Mavado made a show-stealing performance at BET's Rip the Runway, which also airs this Monday at 9pm.
