2012 VMA's or the Return of The Looney Tunes Happy Hour?

2012 VMA's PROVE TO BE VERY ENTERTAINING, BUT ALSO PROVE THAT THE INDUSTRY IS BECOMING A JOKE.

How's it going my good peoples! So hopefully you caught the VMAs during its first run at 8pm and then had a chance to catch the DNC at 10pm to hear our President speak. Make sure to stay in tune with entertainment, but make sure you keep up with the politics of the current election because the effects of this election could effect entertainment as well. So keep up and DEF. get out there and vote in November.

Ok SO! lets get to this mad house that perspired  better known as the VMA's. WHAT A NIGHT! I must give MTV their props on choosing Kevin Hart to host, he was completely entertaining and controversial as he always is.  I as well as thousands on location in LA and at home in their living rooms enjoyed every minute of his foolishness.  It was hilarious when he made a very fidget worthy (what brown and drake were doing) reference to the Chris Brown and Drake "Beef" that has been poisoning the entertainment news headlines, or bottom lines seeing no one cares anymore as Hart expressed in his spill.

Opening the show was Rihanna who as always gave an almost flawless and effortless performance. Bringing Newbie artist ASAP Rocky to assist her on her hit single cockiness, and then leading into her video award winning song "We found love". I have to say Rihanna really gave the crowd a show, and showed her love for her fans by fearlessly moving through the crowd of thousands of screaming fans and bodyguards of course. Definitely gave the awards a smooth opening with out any extra foolishness or escapades to muddle it up. But that wouldn't last long.

YMCMB: RESPECT THEIR CONGLOMERATE!!

Or Their Ignorance...You choose.

First and for most i congratulate YMCMB for two of their artists, Drake and Nicki Minaj taking home awards, but i have to say, they had a hell of a way of accepting them. First Drake ( and all of YMCMB of course) take the stage. He starts off great by making a point to dedicate the award to other kids like himself who were looked at as "the kid who took long walks home alone", which got a nice reply from the audience. Then he completely destroys the touching image by putting a power period on the end in the form of a deep voiced and belligerent BIIIIIITCH!! <--(It was funny though)..But still!! It definitely showed how full of themselves (YMCMB) they are.

It seems Rihanna may have rubbed off on the YMCMB clique heavily seeing they of course had to continue on with their onslaught of Cockiness as Nicki Minaj received an obviously unexpected award(that face she made) for her video "Star Ships". She was in total shock, or at least she acted like it. But she walked down in her, um... "clothing choice for the evening" and went on stage and went into one of her normal calm voiced that escalated to a wild seizure like acceptance speech, which ended just as belligerent as Drake with a simple .."Ok...love you ..Bye". It wasn't a traditional "Ok..thank you bye and see you later" it was more of "Ok bitches ...thank you for making me get up out of my seat with these heels on and you know my feet hurt, but i really don't care about any of you people who claim to be my barbies and ken dolls, more like my revenue slaves....Bye"! yeah, one of those. Then she proceeded to walk off stage the wrong way which has happened before with YMCMB, you know, I wouldn't be surprised if they never showed up to award show rehearsals. Im serious, I really wouldn't.
                                                                                                                                                                                

The Awards... why did you get one again??

#OneDirection #MTV #VMA #2012
I have to give the guys props, One Direction did well tonight in their performance, and the song isn't half bad, matter of fact i know all the words. But they were less than worthy of receiving an award, or two, or three. These guys were going up against artists such as Rihanna, Frank Ocean, Chris brown and other artists who have produced much more should i say, Awesome, material. The awards they received proved to me that it is not a fair battle for these awards. I'm not being funny when i say this but, teeny boppers out number the population of mentally functional music listeners. If you ask me, Frank Ocean got cheated in this battle for the award of best new artist. It is full proof that you can not put a True Artist vs. Boy Band, he or she will always lose. Maybe their should be another awards show that is actually dedicated to the artistry of music, not just the "popular choice" (i.e. millions of little girls with unlimited text messaging plans voting over and over on their phones, their friends phones, and their parents phones for the "OMG HE'S LIKE ...SO TO DIE FOR"! boy band). 

A Picture is worth a thousand words:


So im going to take a second and humor myself as well as you readers with some of my favorite moments in the show by adding a little commentary of what I think was going on in the minds of these artists during the 2012 VMAs.

 "Ha Ha... I don't need any of your awards, i'm happy sending you this subliminal message telling you to kiss my ass MTV for not letting real artists win any of your awards this year".





"These moon men are made of chocolate? Hell Yeah Fuckin Right"!! 




"Baby What happen to the rest of your pants?..

I dont know, what happened to the rest of that marshmallow vodka"?

BEST AND WORST PERFORMANCE OF THE NIGHT

#FrankOcean #MTV #2012 #VMA

BEST:


Frank Ocean of course came and gave another awesome showcase of this talents. Simply with an electric guitar, a microphone and his voice as weapons of choice, he brought a silence over the VMA audience with his powerful single "Thinkin Bout You". Also he racked up in over 300,000 tweets about the performance. It is a performance like this that make enthusiasts of fine entertainment and arts blood boil at the artist not receiving recognition in the form of awards. He simply comes to the stage and shows you his talent, who he is, and nothing more. But it seems that the general population has to have commercialism to survive, i'm guessing the industry does as well.

#TwoChains #LilWayne #2012 #VMA

WORST:

Rapper Two Many...i mean..Two chains took the stage in what was nothing less than a channel turning performance. Because that is what I did, i don't know about the rest of the award viewers at home, but I did. I turned right to the DNC. But of course i couldn't talk junk or "hate", as many of you are going to say i'm doing, until i went to MTV.com and watched for myself..(goes to watch)...ok, yeah it was as horrible as i thought it was. Once again, please don't view me as a complete hater, i'm a Wayne fan all day! I don't know who Two Chains is, i really don't pay him any mind, ill bounce to his music if i'm at a party i guess. But For this performance, Wanye looked like Fred Flintstone and Two Chains looked like Chubbaca. I mean, Ill give it to them, they are great Hype bringers. The audience was in the performance, but...not until Wayne showed up, and then they weren't in it fully until Wayne stopped lip syncing. Once wayne began to perform, i began to actually care about the performance. Two chains set quickly turned into Lil Wayne's set and Two chains was a hype man once again. Final note about the performance, if you have never heard these two songs (which i hadn't) you would never know what they were saying because of the almost continuous censor that was used. Now question...do you really have to use that much profanity to get your point across, because if so, you will never get your point across on national television. How are the kids saying it now a days? "Jus say'n". 

WRAP UP!

So, of course i have to give my final words on the perspiring of the VMA's events of the evening. I'll give it to them, if i had to rate the entire show as a whole 1-10, it would get about an 8.5, simply because it kept my attention. I was going back and forth from the VMAs to the DNC, and me being an entertainment enthusiast and an American, it was a little hard to stay on one channel the entire time. Above all, awards wise, i believe that everyone deserved the award they received except for the award for best new artist. I look at music in a sense of artistry, not commercialism, so seeing a group who is only being idolized because of their being a boy band entity, i can not approve for the choice of them being best new artist. You have to ask a question, who will be there still in ten years producing albums and being requested for shows, making videos, and not a slave of commercial entertainment? My bet is one direction this time next year will be yesterdays news. But anyway! Kevin Hart was great, congrats to Wiz and Amber, YMCMB don't get to cocky, there is success in humbleness, Pink was great as always, Glad Olympic Gold Medalist Gabby made and appearance with Alicia Keys, and Taylor Swift, thank you for taking a step out of the box! All in All, it does seem that the entertainment of music is never going to get away from commercialism, and will always be just a circus with many acts and few talents.
