Stevie Wonder's acceptance speech was good, "f**k me, I'm black?"

Ah the MOWO argument. Same time every year Generally I have no problem with the MOBOs but you can't pick and chose. Thankfully I have only had the misfortune to see about 30secs of Honey G and she is undoubtedly pretty crap. However she, and her success thus far does not make us racists. I stumbled across this yesterday and it really pissed me off. If you're white and a good rapper then that's fine If you're white and s***, you're racist

The MOBO awards are "racist". Here's why. By the same measure any "MOWO" would be branded as "racist" or exclusive or discriminatory. Now the thing is that this measure of "racism" has not been created by the majority but by a minority of liberals and black people themselves. This is very similar to some women's attitude to all male clubs. They resent the fact that a man wants a place exclusively for men but they would not give up their all women activities because that is "different". BULLs***.

Noticed the the majority of the audience was white. It normally has a 80% black audience, perhaps Honey G is having an effect. She actually described herself as currently the UKs No1 rapper.

I'm all in favour of women having their own little clubs to discuss knitting patterns, recipes, baby care and the merits of different vacuum cleaners.

I really don't see what the fuss is about. It's an award ceremony celebrating music. Can't see anything bad in that.

Personally I hate most of the music on there anyway. I don't care who gets an award that you can get for going "Yeah" a lot over a TR909.

It is just a blatantly exclusive award which would not be allowed if it were for just white people. It can't even be argued that black people need positive discrimination in the industry because they are already represented disproportionately. I just hate hypocrisy.
