It's been done before, but Music of Black Origin Awards are on now. I have nothing against it at all, enjoying the music. So much talent. But what would happen if there was a MOWO award?

But but but... why is there not a "Music of WHITE origin" award? It wouldn't be allowed in the UK, would it? Imagine picking up the Radio Times (no, I don't buy it) and seeing MOWO at 7pm. There'd be an outcry. Yes caine77 & Marf it's done every year because a lot of people don't like the hypocrisy of it. Every year.

The difference is that if I went around saying I liked white music, or phoning a radio station and asking them to play more white music, I'd never hear the end of it. And that's why I disapprove of the MOBO awards, it's racism, pure and simple. But while white racism is frowned upon, black racism is tolerated, even encouraged.

It's that simple.
Yes, exactly. So many people missing the point. Nevermind, we can do it all again next year smile
