I dont really know if I agree. Sounds like hes trying too hard too act smart, but really missing the point. The thing with boycotting the oscars isnt just to not support it, but to also build up our own shyt

Tough to do when these black artist don't be supporting black organized award shows....
Its a double edged sword, Yes we need to support them, but at the same time these black award shows need to hold themselves to some type of standard. Stop giving Kevin hart and Mike Epps actor of the year awards :camby:

true indeed. Another thing I am looking at too is presentation. Should these black award shows have a dress code or allow the people to come "dressed as themselves" :patrice:

All in all, I do wish more big named artist came out to these shows and give it credence.

video title makes no sense. and given Charlec00n's love of rambling, I'll pass on watching the video. Haven't watched a Charlemagne Vlad TV video in a long time and don't plan on starting now.

I think he's trying to focus on the outside validation aspect more than anything and I agree with that sentiment. He's not offering any real solutions or alternatives other than saying to have more black directors make good movies.
