Agree. If someone even suggested having a White only awards, that's all they (Blacks) would need to go rampaging through the streets burning car's, smashing shop windows, stealing, killing 80 year old grannies just cos she's White.

Same as Women. They bang on about equal opportunities, and want equal pay, but the ******* still want 6 months payed maternity leave

12 months if the Government get there way !!

White people have won awards there, I think. It's the music that's of black origin.

Just checked. I'm not "up" on that kind of music, but I'm sure that Eminem's far from black, and All Saints are mostly white girls.

Q.E.D.

its music of black origin, music that was made popular years ago by the likes of the sugar hill gang and public enemy.

Not vanilla ice or eninem.

hence MOBO

I think it's about music, not politics, UB. And fair recognition of the cultures and subcultures that give rise to that style of music. Not about black-derived music hijacked by mainstream whiteys like Bill Haley, Elvis Presley and Vanilla Ice.

You mentioned Eminem, as an example. He's won several awards at the MOBOs, so I got confused about which side you were arguing from.

Was that a song that ought to have been given an award at the MOBOs? I fail to see the relevance to the thread.

eminem has won awards for his music, which was origionaly black orientated, therefore back to my point in the first place

HipHop = black origin (at the begining)

thats why its called mobo.

dont matter if your yellow in colour its about music,nothing racist about it

That's because you are a sanctimonious git, devoid of any powers of interpretation...

Better a sanctimonious git than a one-trick pony.
