What happens

BET: Uncut was a defunct music video block program that aired on BET from September 2000 until July 2006. The videos contained within the show featured mature content, including highly sexualized imagery, violent lyrics, etc. The content assured the program a permanent TV Parental Guidelines rating of TV-14, later TV-MA, with a 'viewer discretion' advisory leading into the start of each segment of the show. Uncut mainly aired on Wednesdays through Sundays at 3 a.m. EST. This block program primarily gave a spotlight to songs by artists who couldn't air on regular daytime programming blocks like RapCity, 106 & Park, etc. Throughout UnCut's airing, they showed music videos that did air on 106 & Park, Videolink, and Rap City, along with its exclusively Uncut music videos to keep the hour-long block ongoing. Examples of non-sexually explicit videos that aired on other blocks would be Give Me That by Webbie & Bun B, Where the Party At by Jagged Edge, Rep It Wit My Heart by Troy Ave, Shine by Lil Wayne, etc. Its last episode aired on July 8, 2006, and was hosted by Jermaine Dupri at the Body Tap strip club, announcing that the block was no longer airing while throwing an "UnCut Going Away Party" The end credits of the final episode was a montage of all the music videos that aired on UnCut from 2000-2006 along with clips of hosts on there to the song It's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday by Boyz II Men. The network officially announced the cancellation of the show on July 25, 2006. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
