Tinashe can do no wrong in my opinion. fukk the haters.

 

[swag2011]

People don't like this kind of music. It sounds like old pop or something that the gay community would like. Popular pop today sounds more like R&B/hiphop.

so basically you gotta be popular, quality doesn't matter? not just that, but make the same sound everyone else is doing? just asking for your opinion?

Tinashe's songs (singles) sound just like everyone else's. AB doesn't have a new sound, her sound is old and everyone else has done it & is over it. Yes, you do have to be popular and have a large fan base who buys your stuff to get recognition for awards. Quality does matter to me, to the award people? idk.

How bout they all boycott and not show up to the VMAs. shyts stale anyway. Just don't go

All these Byatches need to shut up and stop worrying about being accepted in the Pop World...

If our black azzes pooled our resources together and networked with each other BET would be Black owned and credible and we wouldn't have to worry about validation from the MAINSTREAM I.e MTV

WE JUST AINT HAPPY UNTIL THE "WHITE MAN" IS HAPPY...

cause his stamp of approval is all that matters

Banks beefed herself out the industry cuz she had a dope project and she has a sound that can make moves...Dawn Richard tho? Would she even get a Soul Train award - you know they be digging deep for nominees. Tinahse? What was monumental about any of her videos?

 

[Canon]

these bytches delusional

guess AB's bedwenching didn't pay off

 

[SunZoo]

Azealia Banks isn't popular enough to contend with artists like Bruno Mars, Taylor Swift, Beyonce, etc. Which is what mainstream pop shows like the VMAs give awards to. That said, Banks should be more popular. This song was dope as fukk, and so was the video. She is too black and abrasive for mainstream white America.

Nobody wants to hear this C&C music factory sounding ass shyt

Making fools of themselves with those tweets. :smhkobe:

 

[CurrencyChase]

Watch though, I bet you if Taylor Swift had made that song, it'd be all over the air waves and people would be like "this new sound T-Swift came up with is amazing wow!"

nahhh bro..song is horrible. taylor makes better songs.

 

[Redwing80]

Tinashe did headline her own world tour though, she's popular

This is pretty much the solution. If you feel that your work isn't being appreciated, don't go. Whether they nominate em or not, if MTV invites them, they'll still show up. VMA's are trash. Last years was absolutely horrible. People like to shyt on the BET Awards but they've been consistently better than the VMA's for the past couple of years. MTV need the artists more than the artists needs them. All it takes is for all these singers to start going to other award shows that do appreciate them and people will stop giving a fukk about a VMA. Even if you get nominated next time, don't show up. I honestly didn't know people still thought a VMA meant much.

Shyt is pathetic. ...

Its like they have LOW SELF ESTEEM

fukk an award...if u doing numbers that's all that matters

NIKKI MINAJ moves units....

She should peep game from HOV

"SAVE ALL THE ACCOLADES
I JUST WANT THE DOUGH!!"

fukk stressing out about being accepted into venues and forums that don't want your black azz any way

Reminds me of when OPRAH raised Hell cause the HERMES Store in France didn't want her business.....


Why Didn't The Store Just Let Oprah Buy The $38,000 Handbag?

I don't think Tinashe, Nicki, AB, or Dawn were snubbed. They just aren't good enough.

Tinashe is new and it's ridiculous that she thinks she deserves awards. She isn't even very popular/well known. She's only had one hit song and her dance video wasn't good. Her team is the only reason why she's been getting so much work. No she isn't a humble/sweet girl. Look at her favorited tweets that are kind or "shading" Ciara and praising her for their BET Janet performance.

A lot of people don't even know who Dawn & AB are or have never heard their music.


I think it's ridiculous that today's artist think that people are just supposed to hand them awards instead of them working hard for it. Rihanna and Beyonce weren't winning awards left and right when they first came out and they never complained. They just moved on and worked harder.

nikki deserved a nod. fukk that. the anaconda video had a major, major impact.

she set a damn youtube record for video views and it's not even in the conversation for VotY?

the rest of these birds are stuck in their feelings. nicki has actual numbers to back her up. she has every right to be pissed.
