Erm, we've had this discussion before. The MOBOs can't be considered racist because they don't actually discriminate against white artists - hence awards for Mick Hucknall, Jamiroquai, The Prodigy and Basement Jaxx.technotrancemix wrote:Dave's point about the MOBO's is spot on. To me, MOBO's is Music Of Bland Origin, of course being white man if I said "black origin" to a coloured person, I would be classed as racist (especially with the ethnic communities nearby).
Having said that, I think the title of the awards should be changed to the Urban Music Awards or something because Music of Black Origin sounds naff - and vague for that matter.
Passion, love, sex, money, violence, religion, injustice and death. More on that story later.
