pop Princess?? samantha suck on my nuts, then lick my crusty flaky kaka hole.
MOBO are an epic fail.
Labrinth is an RnB soul act (he makes good music) but the fact he is in the catogeory shows you how much respect i aint got for the mobos
Best International Act….Rihanna!
Beyonce won 5 MOBO R**** only won 3 shame 6 flop albums
Kreayshawn debut album sits at 58 on iTunes charts & 14 on pop album charts ya n***** didn’t think she could do it well ya dumb stupid ass n***** are wrong. Oakland we made it
B**** grow the f*** up!!!! Nobody is checking for that nobody but your crusty dumb ass! And I bet all the money in the world you are a tired black queen perpetrating being a white ghetto girl hoodrat!! Have several seats in the back clown!!!!!!
F*** yourself
There is not a single black woman nominated for best female. Emeli and Rebecca are mixed race and they say they are; they do not have the one drop rule in Europe, in fact, mixed people take pride saying they are not black in Europe. Almost like they are ashamed.
So many very untalented white people are nominated ! Conor maynard? That ugly ass justin biber wannabe? Also, they have the MOBO awards in cities where blacks do not live, like Glasgow, Scotland. That is like BET awards taking place in Alaska. Not many black folks in Alaska.
Wow! Only in the UK. Proud to be Born in the USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When I saw Conor Maynard (The man Pharell has been salivating over) I was not surprised. Can the MOBO stoop any lower?
Pharelle , maybe thought he could be a new Justin Bierber. Not go up for awards celebrating black achievement – which is overlooked.
How are they stooping low? Conor’s music is very urban. I’d think black ppl would be proud that someone whom would ordinarily be targering the likes of Bieber, 1D audience is taking the urban route and having success with it. Even Bieber’s stuff these days has urban flair to it. Urban stations should be playing those kinds of records too n not just ignofd them bcuz they came from a white boy. Thats one way to get urban music back on the top 10 of the US charts.
Just curious since you’re complaining that there are no “black artists” up for nomination. Who would you nominate? MOBO = MUSIC OF BLACK ORIGIN. Meaning most of these artists are representing or inspired by black music
i AM AMERICA. I assumed you celebrate your own community, especially as you are ignored and snubbed from British life. How many blacks win Brits?
You have heard of the BET awards? Right? Get the concept? In same why the have BET? Just like they have the Latin Grammies or Asian awards?
You do not believe in rewarding black talent that ignored, b****?
So u think it nice that no blacks are up for the awards? HMMMMMMMMMM bit like the brit award!
U f****** c*** Kelly black people build this country Africa s money feed ur stupid white ass everyday
@ Erickane I am not going to waste my precious time validating the reasons for my comment as your comment says it all. You work it out.
@Kelly you are absolutely right can you imagine the Brit Awards having that amount of black nominations to their list….???…Sorry but the British Blacks are totally whipped.
F*** U RACIST TRASH C*** ISN’T MISHA B BLACK? Uh there wouldn’t b mix race if there wasn’t N***** deal with it black people runs music!!! Look MJ SOLD 1billion records world wide!!! Mariah Whitney Houston music s black
Definitely won’t be watching this trash. There is no difference between this rubbish and the MTV and Brit award.. Why not chuck in One Direction while they are at it.
“awards” plural.
The awards that Rita Ora should win are:
Most Overhyped Newbie: Rita Ora
The Most Expensive Newbie: Rita Ora
Biggest Flop: Rita Ora
RITA WONT WIN A SINGLE AWARD!
Lol ahahahah
Ed sheeran? He does not do black music, that is like nominating John Mayer or Fun for a BET award. Ed is more Boby dylan. WHAATTTTTTTTT????????? Y’all ain’t right in the UK!
lol LOL at the best HIP HOP having 3 white boys in . No black person nominated for best album ( emeli is half scottish, as she says a million times )
Only the jamaican / International and African act are 100% black. That is because African Americans, Africans and Jamaicans have pride in their race. Black british or whatever they call y’all, just have no identity. This type would never go down in America.
The BET, Soul train, NAACP awards dominated by whites? No black woman nominated for soul train award?
Could imagine np latino being nominated bor Latin grammies; latin billboard; Alma awards?
Black people in the UK have no identity that is why they are never gonna be on the level of us African Americans. You will never see a barack obama in the UK – all the black men in the UK only date white women.
Honey get over your self it’s Music of Black Origin it dont mean you have to have black origin to do black music, black people do white music all the time ie Beyonce, Rihanna & Nicki Minaj to say the lease I dont see why it has to be a problem to you. Get that chip off your shoulder its 2012 music is music dont matter what the race is at the end of the day we are all one race the human race its a shame that you still see things in black & white.
You are so cliche. Chip off your shoulder…is that all u got? I knew u would come with that.
Well, here is what I got for you. Blacks may have a chip on their shoulder……but at least they do not have a gun in their pocket. Columbine style. Which sums up u whites.
I know your w white person cos you always say the same three things, to scare blacks from demanding more. Well it may work in the UK, but cannot try that s*** in the usa and get away with it.
1 – get that chip off your shoulder
2 – angry black / woman / man
2 stop using the race card.
LOL LOL your gig up. Come harder next time. LOL LOL
No they just start the tottenham riot burn people alive and take whats not there thats all.
I read your comment about black people start riots and take what is not their. So, you not like Blacks, why the f*** are u on a black blog? It is a pleasure thing? U hate the blacks, but u need validation from them, hence why you come to a black blog, over tmz?
And you are a bitter white man, with skin cancer and a few months to live, so you come on black blogs, to racially abuse blacks,cos the sun is taking your life away. LOL LOL
‘Keep that chip on your shoulder., You will need it when the skin cancer kicks in. LOL LOL LOL
I bet you are 12 but look 50. We know white age like the mummy
Well when white racists stop seeing things in Black and White maybe just maybe the world will start changing.
He is signed by black people idiot u c why I celebrate when a n**** shoot a white cynt like u
First off i am middle easten now read this i have for you all:
Racism exists in this country so will sexism, classism, elitism and every other kind of “ism” you can name. People have ALWAYS picked on anyone they could, and they always will. That’s simple human nature and you’ll see it over and over again if you study history. Being black is no excuse for failure. You may have a steeper climb, but you can make it. Look around. A lot of black people have. You can do it, too. Stop making your own bed and bitching about sleeping in it. Black people who listen to Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton and expect the government to give them something for nothing are blind sheep. Those “leaders” have a vested interest in keeping the slaves on the plantation. If you listen to them, that’s where you’ll stay. Learn to read and write. That’s not “acting white.” That’s the key to success anywhere you want to go. And ANYBODY can master those tools. Nobody ever said life was fair. It ain’t and it never will be. Get over that fact. You’re not the only people ever pissed on by life. Look at the Jews and the Vietnamese. THEY were pissed on, but they didn’t lay there in the puddle to be pissed on again. I’ve never liked labour unions because they preach the lowest common denominator as a standard for performance. I do not believe that we should dumb down the rest of society, create “4.6″ GPAs and engage in the tacit racism of low expectations for black people. That kind of crap only exacerbates the problem. Black men: raise your goddam children. I’ve heard this s*** too often to recall – some 20-something black guy bragging to his buddies at work that he KNOWS he’s a man because he’s sired three children by different women. He doesn’t know his kid’s names, but that doesn’t matter to him. He thinks he’s a man. Dogs do what he did. Fathers don’t. Accept responsibility for your own actions. I know that it’s a lot to ask in today’s victim-oriented society, but do you really believe that hip-hop and rap, Ebonics and baggy pants are the way to get out of the ghetto? I don’t think so. I believe it’s the way to keep yourself mired there and it’s YOUR CHOICE TO MAKE. Blame all of your problems on ME. That’s right. If you are unemployed, living on a welfare check, semi-raising illegitimate children and unable to read the want ads in the newspaper, I DID THAT TO YOU. Me. It ain’t YOUR fault. Racist bastards such as myself took away every opportunity in your life, made you drop out of school and become pregnant or a jailbird and bitter because manna from heaven didn’t fall right into your lap. Just do me one simple favour. Take a good, long look in the mirror before you point a finger at me.
Why I Hate Black People: Since the 1st Black On White R*** in the Bible When the Serpent R**** Adam & Eve, the Black Man’s Only Goal Has Been to Terrorize Us. He Hasn’t Sought to Evolve. I Don’t Hate Black People. I Hate Evil. Black People are Evil.
Black “people” are not humans. This is clear from the first book of the Bible when we learn the Serpent (used to represent a black man) could talk and spoke to Adam and Eve.
Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? (Genesis 3:1)
We learn from this scripture that from the beginning, black people have been the most subtil beasts in the field. We also know, as my pastor teaches that “eating of every tree in the garden” is a metaphor for having s**. This “s**” which, as in the book of Corinthians we learn, was actually a r***.
But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. (2 Corinthians 11:3)
Nothing bothers me more than logicalness hate, hatred without reason. But, the could be said for love.
Flash forward:
Today this nation has been beguiled by the subtle words of the black who, again, is presenting himself as a human.
As proven by the Bible, our biggest flaw is having sentimentality to creatures who use crafty words to appeal to our sense of reason.
The blacks’ ability to convince many that they were human and, thus, deserve “human rights” brought about the abolishment of institution responsible for making this nation what it is today: slavery.
The truth of the matter is blacks were meant to be our slaves and, as the Bible shows us, only through their subtle character and ability to beguile have the been able to manipulate us to this, the day of Obama.
Blacks should be grateful for being slaves in the past if whites did not bring them to America on boats they would still be in tribes and uneducated they segregate themselves they deserve no special attention or recognition at all. They need to be grateful.
They would be starving to death, being genitally mutilated, and watching their children die of simple diseases like diarrhea. I would go as far as saying that we did them a favor by bringing them over here as slaves they would still be chucking spears and running from cheetahs.
They all want to be players so they will have s** with absolutely anything. They are bottom feeders. They are lazy, irresponsible, and weak. That’s all there is to it. Most of them don’t deserve to be called a man. They are always killing each other, calling each other the n word, selling crack in their communities, abandoning their women (What I don’t Mind) but as soon as the cops come knocking, they pull the race card and scream conspiracy all that is laziness and ignorance. There is no excuse for an adult, so what if their parents smoked crack, that’s no excuse. Because of what their ancestors went through, they should want to be better, but instead they’d rather act like hooligans look at the Tottenham riot all blacks. Black males are more likely to neglect or abandon their children, this is a statistical fact.
And honey we all know you don’t work your a drug-using, immoral, welfare-collecting, turd-colored pieces of s*** who thinks you they are better than white people, you will never be!
I would argue that blacks are weak-willed. They are the only race that has been enslaved for 300 years. It’s unbelievable that it took them that long to fight back.
F*** U RACISM S MORE IN THIS COUNTRY THAN OTHER S***
Jessie J was touted as the British Katy Perry, so why does she keep getting the nomination for MOBO’S? Y’all don’t have any black talent in the UK?

The only credible talent on that pitiful list, which is made up of xfactor contestants and acts who have never been signer or dropped…..is Sade ( mixed race ) and Emeli SANDE ( mixed race ) they are the only two on that loser list than can sell an album in America, and can compete with African Americans, who were born Superior to y’all in the UK.
LOL LOL Starboy nathan – a loser, who never got signed in his 8 yr ” career” and had to audition for xfactor – something he will never ever win. Tell, him to get a day job!
I don’t know if it is racism in the UK……….or y’all just pitiful and pathetic.
Starboy Nathan…that poor mite in all his time singing has never had a record deal and had to resort to going on X Factor. He is through to the judges houses. This is the end of his career… bad move.
@ Oh Well Replied..you walked into this one. Now can you tell me from your list how many of those have been nominated for the 2012 MOBOS>
are you stupid? there are alot of black talented artists in the UK.
you cannot diss our nominations when NICKI MINAJ and 2 CHAINZ and FLO RIDA are considered hip hop in american awards.
Tell the b**** lol
This c*** Kelly is clueless!
At least florida, Nicki and 2 cahiz sell. Even in other countries. Nicki is an American idol judge. And when was the last time xfator had a black judge – from the UK?
HOW MANY of this so called black talent in the UK have amazing careers and sell, worldwide? I read in the UK’S guardian paper, that the UK don’t sign black women anymore.
You aint even from america you are british! gurl you lie so much, and know f*** all about music do us ALL a favour and kill yourself nice and slow and let us all watch you do it PLEASE!
Its unfortunate me and Kelly have had a few exchanges on here but I have to admit she is the only credible person on this site. She can be a little loopy at times but she knows her s*** and until you can come up with facts please stop posting irrelevant garbage on here
Dear Black Britain,
what are y’all gonna do about this? What action are y’all gonna take?
You should worry about your own country and leave the UK to us brits.
we have a black prez and 1st lady. What do u have in the uk?
You are not british or english. You are an immigrant from Africa or west indies with British passport and that all u will ever be. Hence why they treat u like s*** out there.
In my country,
I can say the most powerful woman in the world from 2000 to 2008 was Condileeza Rice. You can’t say that in Your country.
So who the f*** needs to worry now, b****?
@Kelly
H** HUSH!!!!!!!
Your country doesn’t have history, culture. Be thankful to British people because without them you would be an Indian colony. You don’t even have your own language, you had to steal English. Your country is the most evil one in the world, your soldiers killed so many innocent people in Asia. That’s something to be proud of? Shame on you! Spain and Italy are the best countries in the world, they both have colossal history, culture and they speak the most beautiful languages in the world.
Kelly you are just a hatefull bicth who lives alone with 45 cats and I know you have never had a friend in your life sad c*** faced b****.
KEEP THAT CHIP OFF YOUR SHOULDER!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
F*** your mum ur selfish British c***
Awww!! youre too cute!! U came back again but under different names – interesting!!
First under the name Kelly then you came back under the name Blue The Real Hive how sweet of you.
U still hurt Boo Boo!!! all them postings just for me?? Gee Wow!! I just don’t know what to say!!
Thanks again for visiting the site THATWHITEJUICE would like to thank you for your continued support to artist like Gaga, Christina & Rita Ora who are on every page of this site!! So it’s not a black site like you say it is! Do come back now!!!
@ Licika
You’re an idiot. Americans did not steal the English language. England colonized America which is why we speak the language. This is the same reason why most Latin American countries speak Spanish, because of colonization. This ia the reason why the French antilles speak French and French based languages, because of colonization.
Secondly Brits need to stop acting holier than thou. You guys conquered most of the known world. You pillaged villages, r**** local women, and enslaved Africans when you decided to invade the continent. Africa flourished in wealth before you guys decided to show up.
Lastly, wasn’t it only a few years ago when Britain decided to kill and beat innocent Indians?
*is
@That B****
H** HUSH!!!!!!!
I am not from the UK so your comments mean nothing to me. I am just stating the facts. And to be honest, I prefer American English to British English if that makes you sleep better at night. 😉

How’s America stole ENGLAND s language in people r dumb c***
I cannot believe Talay Riley, Loick Essien, Mz Bratt, Dot Rotton and Cover Drive did not make the list. Ok I know Talay and Loick have been dropped by their label but they are still out there making good music. They were both overlooked at the last MOBOS. Also let us not forgeti the beautiful Rhian Benson the Welsh/Ghanaian jazz singer (Google her).
They s***
sam go suck rita dry p**** you nasty hater stop hating people and check your own life karma is a b****!!!!!!
RITA WONT WIN S***!
Adele Emeli Sande. Winner of 2012.
Haters it’s an Urban award like BET!!! MY QUEEN S NOMINATED AGAIN BEYONCE HAS WON 5 MOBO AWARDS R**** Only won 3 looool 6 albums ahahahah lmfao
Errm Beyonce is mixed NOT black.
Beyonce is not mixed idiot
Her daddy s black her mama s half that makes her black some people says quarter
im from glasgow, and for once, i agree with “kelly”.
barely any of these artists are urban/black music,. most are just popstars who happened to be black.
also, why is every black popstar “r&b/soul”?
All of Those artist are discover by black people and most of it are in a black label or manage by black person so f*** yourself!!!
By looking at the best female nominees, if Jessie J doesn’t win this is the dumbest award show ever (it already is since it is supposed to be a credible music award, but voted on by the public like a t*** choice award). Regardless of race, she makes music that is more influenced by all aspects of black music, jazz, soul, raggae, etc, than any of the rest of them. Especially, Tulisa. She shouldn’t even be nominated. She does not make music of black origin at all. People hate on Jessie J, but if you don’t think her album is heavily influenced by black music and tied into pop just like Whitney did, then you are bananas.
SHE WONT WIN NOW GO DIE EMILY SANDE WILL
Emeli Sande sings elevator music. Sorry.
C****
White people get nominated here but they don’t win s***!!! Only last year when they felt sorry for them now f*** off racist c***
It’s not the white people who make up the list and it’s not the white peoples fault black artist are to lazy to make good music it seems that without white people there would be no MOBO.
Just saying boo.
F*** u b**** u know why white people go nominated? Do u even know the story of the MOBO? When it started in 1996 no white person was allow in then in 2006 MJ spoke out about music not being black then in 2010 white person was nominated b**** MUSIC IS BLACK MJ SOLD 1 billion records can a white person beat that?

Im sorry but that is f****** stupid. How the f*** is Rita’s album nominated. It clearly should of missed some sort of cut off, not to mention it being a pop album. How are you nominated 3 weeks after you come out.
Jay z bought it
F****** Roc Nation WHORES.
How the f*** does someone go about making an album and releasing it and get nominated TWO AND A HALF WEEKS Later for an AWARD.
How On Earth did the entire COMITEE MANAGE to LISTEN, REVIEW AND MAKE A DECISION on IF IT SHOULD QUALIFY TO BE NOMINATED FOR THE AWARD. Thats IMPOSSIBLE. THIS W**** BOUGHT THIS AWARD!
Roc Nation WHORES? So both Rihanna and Rita r s****
