Ok, so I sat here and tried to watch the MTV music awards and finally realized that it is not just rap that has taken a turn for the shitter but it is nearly all of music. Remember when you would turn on something like a music awards show and were guaranteed the best of performances because all the current hot acts were bringing their best to the stage? Well, gone are those days because when you start off with a no talent, ex teen heartthrob that is 30 lbs heavier that her heyday, trying to make a come back, you can see where the rest of the show is going to go. Don't get me wrong, I understand that after giving birth to half a little league team worth of brats, that it can be hard for your body to get back to where it was but , come on!
Britney Spears is proof that you cannot suppress the "White Trash" gene, you can only hope to hide it till someone turns the channel or TIVOs pass the ridiculousness. What happened to singing during your performance? Is there really a difference these days between Britney Spears' lip syncing over a heavily altered version of her voice and Milli Vanilli? Hell, I even liked some of their songs. Laugh if up but how many times have you hummed, "Blame it on the rain?"
"You're just too old, you don't understand music these days!" Ok, I am willing to listen to that for a minute since I know my parents didn't approve of the music I liked when I was 13-17 but... did the music awards shows I watched back then consist of half-naked "dancers" with poles, lip syncing their way through their own songs? Isn't that the job of "Tasty," "Delicious," or "Chocolate" at the Pink Pony or Lollipops (our local strip clubs)? I just don't get putting a pioneer like Dr Dre, screw that, the freaking hip-hop genius that brought us N.W.A., Snoop Dog and Eminem on the same stage as a no talent ass clown like Lil John.
Well I just had to get that off my chest. If you have an opinion on the subject, I would love to hear it.
