End Of Year Awards: The Nominees
Album of the Year
Amy Winehouse – Back to Black
(while I love Alicia Keys, and her album, Amy MOST def had THEE best album of the year. There was no other album that I played more than “Black To Black”)

Single of the Year
(This one is hard, but, I’d have to say that it’s between)

Keyshia Cole – Let It Go
J. Holiday – Bed

Best Video:
(These are my favorite two, because of their creativity and ability to keep me capitivated)
Ciara - Like A Boy
Kanye West - Good Life

Best Collaboration
R. Kelly & Usher – ‘Same Girl’
(I don’t care for Usher, but I love Kells)

Best New Artist:
Amy Winehouse

Best Female Artist:
Alicia Keys
(Compared to the other females mentioned, none of them were able to top Miss Keys. So, for that alone, she deserves the title)

Best Male Artist
Kanye West
(while I haven’t been a huge fan of Kanye’s since “College Dropout,” he is the only artist---male or female---to have the industry on lock. The numbers that he pulled with “Graduation” was just insane. So, that deserves recognition. And while Chris Brown put out a few cute joints this year, Kanye is a grown man---well, at least, in his songs, he is. lol!!!)

The Kelly Rowland Underrated Artist Of The Year Award
Trey Songz
(I, seriously, can not stand this dude, but, I can’t front. Lil’ Dude knows how to put out some good songs.)

The Please Go Sit Down Somewhere Award
50 Cent
(He’s THEE most ignorant, whiny, wack ass Negro in show business. So, yes, puhleeeeease give this MOFO this award. **SMH**)

Most Overrated Artist:
Fergie
(I just don’t get it.)

Worst Single Of The Year:
Nicole Scherzinger - Baby Love
(Who is she again?)

Flop of the Year:
Kelly Rowland
(She’d have to be awarded, because this is a recurring thing. I mean, at least, Will and Jenny have experienced direct success. I‘m sorry, but Kelly is just a by-stander.)

Most Shocking Event of 2007:
Beyonce Falling Down Stairs
(“Shocking” is too strong of a word to describe this event. Bee falling down the stairs was just down right painful to look at. I mean, that fall was the most cartoonish looking shit I have ever seen.)

Best Reality TV Show:
Runs House
(It’s like the modern-day “Cosby Show.” J No coonery in that house. So, how can we not be glad to see it on TV.)

Best TV Show:
Girlfriends
Everybody Hates Chris
The Game
(I really love these shows, so I can‘t choose. Unfortunately, however, I’ve never seen “The Boondocks,” so I can’t comment on it. But the other three shows are always good.)

What do you think of the nominee list?

This list really sums up some of the top moments in Black culture over this past year, so job well done.
