B2K <333 my, those guys have grown on me over time.

Anyway. It shouldn't be about color. Really, it shouldn't. If a white person does "black" music and it's good, then damn, it's good. And vice versa.

BUT BET, as I said, is all about "black power." So um, it just really doesn't make sense to me. But they chose the nominees, so whatever I guess.

You probably know more black people that like Justin rather than Britney because Justin basically markets himself to that audience. Britney doesn't really.

Well then I'm one of the rare black people that like Britney, but I used to hate her soo much. Her music isn't really that good. I liked 'Slave 4 u' that when I became a fan. and oh yeah I like Justin too.

THANK YOU *gives you cookies*

*steps on soapbox*

and to be honest i think some of you are quite shallow. there are no rules saying "be black to win" not to mention that its not as if justins music doesnt fit into the category. maybe if he was singing about the alphabet i could see your angle but EHHHH......if you dont like justin why the hell do you care what he is and isnt nominated for.

*steps off soapbox*

That's not shallow. I'm just going with what the network supposedly is. But apparently they aren't what I thought.
