Hip Hop Awards '09

Okay, this is gonna be short and sweet. Why is it that black people can't get together and celebrate Hip Hop music without so many people putting it down? I mean, all over the net tonight, as well as a few nights ago, every website has so many people putting down the award show! I mean, they knew what they were getting from watching the previous shows. Besides, it's just a bunch of performers, artists, celebrities, and the like putting on a show for each other really. If you claim to love hip hop, then you love the good and the bad. I'm going crazy with all the petty mess that is being splashed all over the internet about what 'so-and-so' was wearing, or what 'so-and-so' said to 'so-and-so'. It's disgusting really. Take it for what it is and move on people. There was really no show after the entire thing was leaked all over Twitter anyway. There were no surprises, everyone knew exactly what was going to happen. Then you decide to run your mouth AGAIN the night it airs on cable like you didn't just say all of the same crap already. I have never seen so much self-hating in my life. You claim to love your culture, love yourself, then the first chance you get to hate on somebody you take it without hesitation. Grow up and embrace YOUR culture for what it is. I mean, it is what it is just like any PERSON in your life you claim to love. Do you criticize your significant other so brutally when they try and impress you by dressing up in their best clothes and doing a song and dance for you? No, you wouldn't. You would love it. You would stand and clap your hands and grin so hard til your face cracks. Basically, I'm just sick of all the tweets and comments on blogs from people about every little thing they hated about the award show(but they watch it and attend anyway). Glad to get that off my chest, I can move on now.
