I've been getting a great deal of love about these tweets. So I figured I'd dedicate a blog to them. This is how you know the end is near by the happenings in music.
Justin Beiber gets Best New Artist nomination at BET Awards
This is not to say white people can't be nominated for black awards. It's just that it's freaking Justin Beiber. He's a pop artist. A light weight pop artist, at that. He got the nod because every popular black artist has co-signed him.
Nicki Minaj got a Vibe Magazine cover
Supposedly, Nicki Minaj is the hottest female rapper out right now. I'll admit I was on the bandwagon. While her mixtapes are cool, her actual singles have drowned in mediocrity. 'Your Love' is terrible. How do you sound tone deaf using auto-tune? Frankly, she doesn't deserve a cover of Vibe. But she got it. Umm yeah.
Janelle Monae hasn't become a success yet
Janelle Monae us one of those artist every other artist needs to emulate. I don't mean her exact style needs to be copied, but the way she doesn't classify herself as one type of artist. Yet, that is her downfall. In a society hell bent on labels, nobody buys her work because they don't know what to label her. Her album is dope, extremely dope. Check it out.
Well, as of now those are the signs of the apocolypse. Time to go find some more to blog about.
