Ain't no need to get racist. MTV doesn't play black people half as much as the rock bands or Madonna. 1/20 videos is a black artist. We found a way to stop being mistreated on the music scene and now people want to get mad.

White people do own their own tv channel(s) and award ceremony dumb ass! Lets see...cbs, abc, nbc, tbs, yup all white owned!

This is why I am tired of Atlanta. I hate this hip-hop/rap crap. I don't care about Atlanta being the black mecca. I want educated blacks to come to Atlanta- not thugs; like the ones who come for this hip-hop stuff. I'm sorry for sounding racist; I am not and this is true!! I was at the peach drop this year and all there was there were thugs that got in fights and one person ended up being stabbed to death. And you wonder why everywhere I go people laugh when I tell them I am from Atlanta.
