I just want my peeps from Evanescence, Yellowcard and Maroon 5 to win somthin. If that happens, it will all be gravy baby!

MaxMirkin

Why do they need 2 separate categories - best rap video & best hip-hop video? It's same shit, no?

MaxMirkin, I often ask myself that when VMA's roll here.

MaxMirkin

Wow Prince, bodybuilder and musician. You are my new hero!

The lions sing and the hills take flight.
The moon by day, and the sun by night.
Blind woman, deaf man, jackdaw fool.

MaxMirkin

Yeah, it's retarded. And no rock video nominated for Video of the Year!

oaktownboy

haha good point bro..the vma's suck anywayz..I remember Evanescence beating out 50 for best new artist and where is Evanescence now??? But 50 is at the top of the game ,commercially.

Chuck Norris once lost his keys and couldn't remember where he put them. So he tortured himself for half an hour until he gave up their location.

Shae

If I had a gun put to my head to make me choose for video of the year....It would probly be Jay-Z's "99 Problems". That video is so powerfull and controvercial.

gr81

dude, evanescence is so much more talented than 50 cents bitch ass. Have you ever heard that band anyways? I listen to them when I train sometimes, I don't care what kind of music they are. They got a rock sound and the chick that does teh lyrics is tight. they deserved it much more than fitty. 50 is nuthin to any real rapper/hip hop fan in this game. You think the vma's matter for shit. Its been a long time since the best rappers and artists where celebrated in the pop culture scene. So fitty can sell shoes, big fuccin deal. I laugh my ass off any time I see anyone with a shirt that says "proporty of G-unit" on it! ha ha could you be any more pathetic? This regime life bitches, ain't nuthin else.

OH HELL YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

oaktownboy

whoa u need to calm the fuck down...jesus i feel likl i just offended ur mother or sumthin man..All i rememebr about that group was that one song..can't think of the title but it had that dude from 12 stones singin on that too..good song, but i have never heard from them after that. Whereas 50 was gettin major play on all the mainstream urban radio stations and the units he pushed were amazing...i just think MTV is going along with that all politcially correct shit and that it why 50 didn't win, cuz his music talks about sex and violence and drugs and they don't want to be up there (MTV) promoting that, especially since he's black and mtv's target audidence is white middle/upper class america...u feel me?i'm not taking anything away from evanescence..great band..just think 50 made more of a splash for his debut album

I am calm bro, and I am not claiming tha evanescences is the best band ever, its just that 50 is wack as fucc and a Pac Biter to the fullest. Ya know his new Gunit compilation is called "All Eyes on Us"!! gee where'd he get that from?? he's a bitch and I maek it clear. not trying to start something, just voicing my opinion that these video awards do not represent the real talent thats out there, thats all. Its all jesus oak.

btw, if you think that mtv stayed away from 50 b/c his music has sex and drugs, you couldn't be more off base. thats their gold mine right there, sex is what MTV is ALL about dude, Cmon. and plus it wasn't 50's debut album, he has released 2 albums prior to "get rich or die trying", just that nobody new the guy b/c he sucked, but hey once eminem starts backin him, all of a sudden he is great! ya feel me! ha ha. its all good man

oaktownboy

yeah ur right..he's released behind da bars, power of the dollar..a few others..forget about that.but it was more underground so to speak..And the MTV thing, u know i don't gotta explain that bro. u know what i mean, do u think it would look good for 50, a black rapper, to win the best album of the year???
By the way, I ain't angry or anything, i respect ur opinion..I just felt like u jumped all over me. I don't worship 50 or anything.peace

I was a victim of the pop music scene too. I used to listen to *NSYNC, and Ricky Martin. Didn't take me long till I realized that THEY SUCK!!!

Now, I am much into evrything except pop.
