You know what makes me mad? When a rapper like lil john wins an award! This guy looks like he should be washing my windshield and he wins awards. FOR WHAT? He is just a hood with connections. Stevie Wonder should get awards, not these jerks.[}:)]

I'd be willing to bet that more than half the crowd of teenage / early 20's losers in the audience had no idea who Stevie Wonder was. JJ Jackson is rolling over in his grave.

I totally noticed that. It was so out of place. Who forced them to do it? Alecia Keys is a tool for doing it. She was like what am I doing here. It looked more like an episode of A Different World. Remember how every show had to make a statement?

That show is about Top 40 Pop aimed at teenagers and pre-teens, not people in their 30's and 40's. It's not intended for us but I can understand watching it if you want to see what the "kids" (or the least musically adventurous kids) are listening to nowa

The last time I think I watched the awards was sometime around 92/93. I have zero tolerance for that crap.

When I listen to or see the Polyphonic Spree, I have the sudden urge to drink purple Kool-Aid. Can't seem to figure out why....

See what old lady Liz Smith has to say about the awards (scroll down to mid page) or read below.
