[Real N Quotes]

Same fukking thread rehashed as always. White people arent "taking" over Black music. Iggy has one single popping. Did yall even look at the charts, she sold like 200k so far. She'll cruise to gold,maybe plat (depending on her next single and thats about it). She wont even be around long. Nobody knows who the fukk riff raff and g-eazy are outside of the internet. Yall know I always ride for my people but this thread is uncalled for. Timberlake and Em are gonna sell anyway. So stop the overreacting. John Legend just went gold with no type of label push. Urban contemporary radio (like Wbls) always plays his songs. If it weren't for the those type of stations dude would of bricked. Joe, Jaheim, Tamar and plenty of other R&B artists put out good music last year and did respectable numbers. Yall know how artists from any genre went plat in 2013 or 2014? Not many but yall just assume shyt without checking the facts. There is Soul music out there but the labels aint putting money behind. You gotta watch Vh1 Soul or Centric to see it.

BET is owned by VIACOM.

BET is owned by VIACOM.

No doubt I remember when Bob Johnson first sold it to them. I wish he didnt sell it tho.

Once again you hash tag new blacks are proof of what I'm saying

nothing in your post relates to anything I said

my main piont is black artist no longer make black music

black people no longer have rhythm or soul

you let these cacs come in and steal your swag away

this music is is plastic and stale, doesn't have any life in it

the hip hop beats don't have any ride to them, the music has no grove

if you don't understand what I'm saying its because you've already your soul

 

[Rarely-Wrong Liggins]

I mean I kind of agree. But then you have threads on here promoting Drill Music. Chief Keef said "Aye" 80 times for a minute and a half on one of his songs. And this is the type of music people like nowadays. I will agree there is no soul in music, but this isn't a 2014 thing. It dates back at least 10 years.

is black entertainment dying threads a late sunday/monday morning ritual after every award show?

 

[The_Sheff]

Cant cosign anyone trying to diss Easy Like Sunday Morning.

Fam im always on here arguing with people about Black music. I made several threads about certain topics. I see where your going but its still overreacting a bit. You said "my main point is black artist no longer make black music" and "black people no longer have rhythm or soul". Did you hear any R&B albums from last year? I just named Joe, John Legend, Tamar, Jaheim and others that dropped pure r&B albums.

You said "you let these cacs come in and steal your swag away" I called out Iggy and Riff Raff and other white people out countless times for shyt like that. You must not see many of my post. Im one of few "Black" people on here.

You make some good points but I think you're basing your opinion off what the radio play. I listen to internet radio (Tunein, Iheartradio) more than Hot97 and Power105.
(I like Kay Slays show tho, he play that real shyt).

[RammerJammer]

This statement, along with the VMAs has been made every year for the last 10 years. Yet people that complain about it and watch the shyt. There was a 100 page thread last night. But I thought the BET Awards didn't matter

Once again, R&B is dead, Joe has always been good not great, same with Jaheim, they make solid R&B
tamar is okay

john legend has talent, but he didn't do any black music tonight either

lionel ritchie singing all the songs his white fan base liked, he forgot he was ever black, what the music meant completely outta touch

where's the heavy the hitters though

black music has never been white in mainstream until now

I'm not talking iggy or riff raff

I'm taking about black artist, do not sound like black anymore

hip hop has no bounce anymore

besides the obvious drop in talent, the music period is stale sounding and corny

that jennifer hudson track as straight up corny

and she has talent

usher, man did not look comfortable in hi own skin

when did black people become so corny

niggz starting to lose their identity

 

[Just like bruddas]

It was a good run, but its over. Zero soul, zero style, what the hell happened, straight caced out

robin thicke singing country ballards on the bet stage, WTF

lionel richie didn't even perform the songs of his black people like

mike tyson being emasculated on national tv

nicki manij being the best rapper to perform

TI reduced to all levels of cornball putting on swagless performances with a cave bytch
who needs to be working outback steakhouse not rapper those weak ass bars in the corny white rapper voice

money mayweather wth the tight ass suit looking like reynold's wrap

Usher 36 years old, now a struggle dancer, who refuses to make age appropriate music

R and B singers are rappers now, the genre is dead

jennifer hudson, smh

jhene aiko, somebody get this bytch an app to the flaming wok

you gotta understand this isnt our BET, its this generations and they see nothing wrong with it.

 

[keon]

I've been feeling like this for awhile now

Our best music came from the struggle(the blues & hiphop), and both genre's had some soul to it.b.b king said the "thrill is gone",well,as of today brehs,the soul is gone...and it ain't coming back,smh..we've been completely Americanized & now we have no culture to call our own..
