    Samata is a good look for BET – it’s just launched in the UK and needs someone who is hot right now. To be honest there was not that much of a buzz about the content because they are importing a lot of shows from the US like College Hill – it would be wise of them to tap into some of the important people on the scene right now like Samata, Kano…maybe SWAY.

    They got some big names on board – in the UK Estelle, Jamelia and Alesha Dixon are probably as big as it gets in the music scene and Samata IS the fashion scene with a pretty black face so she is marketable – let’s be honest. Estelle did well to be there so people don’t accuse her of selling out to the US….lol

    I don’t know if the US channel will do well without certain people on board from the UK in the fashion and music scene – they have to bring UK talent on board to show us respect.
