Congratulations to all the winners.
looks like your homegworl beyfake won some awards awww…
Looks like rihanus was snubbed. Aww too bad awards arent rhiscounted to 99 cents.
Well good for her, glad she won some awards. Tired of paying Samantha’s phone bill by contributing to the “stan” wars to be honest.
Actually scratch that, I’m just in a good mood today and thought I should be nice, Rihanna is happy again.
Let’s not blame the blogger. You’re just a rampaging asshole in general.
I know and I love it. 🙂
*It’s so good being bad, there’s no way I’m turning back*
But I’m being nice today, Rihanna is happy again so congratulations to Bey for her Soul Train Awards.
Please.
You’re not “bad,” at least not in the rebellious, daring way that you’re probably trying to infer. You’re a bored, miserable, lifeless loser who clearly has nothing better to do with her loads of spare time than to act like an ass in the comments sections of Internet blogs. From the slant of your posts, I can tell that you have no friends, no lovers, no hobbies, and that many of your own family members probably don’t even like you.
You’re not bad, you’re pathetic. LOL
Bad is how your mother raised you. IRL, I imagine that you’re nothing but a bitter, socially-awkward, ugly coward who most likely wouldn’t have the nerve to be as loose lipped with people face to face as you do here. Alas, this blog is obviously your avenue to vent your frustrations at the world over how life dogs you out and to be bold in the way that you only wish you could be in reality, so hey, have at it…but don’t think for 2 seconds that anyone here is fooled and thinks that you’re ‘bad.’ Lame? Yes. A surly troll to be pitied? Absolutely. Bad? *snicker* No.
😆 “Beyonce’s Weave” ain’t bad. She’s manic, obsessive-compulsive, most likely bi-polar and undoubtedly stupid. It’s always the dorks who think they’re a bad b****, when they’re really just buffoons who’re only worth laughing at.
Wow congrats to King B. Wasnt expecting her to win yet another award for “4lop”. She’s barely made room for the AMA and now these. It pays to stan for quality people.
Congrats to the other winner too
i know right.although don’t stan just a fan.
Congratulations to all the winners and nominees. Special congrats to Whitney and Jordan Sparks.
Soul Train Awards Likes Kissing Beyonce’s Assssss… NEXT!!!!!!
name a better R&B album or artist(although 4 was released in 2011)
Exactly… It Was Released In 2011 Why Is It Being Nominated Now?
i get you
@Lola, 4 Wasn’t Nominated Though , The Songs Were, Have A Seat .
Wtf Is The Difference? Aren’t The Songs Off Of The ALBUM 4 Which Was Released In 2011?… Which Makes The Song A Year Old!! You Need To Have A Seat And STFU! Thanks 🙂
BTW…. I Was NOT The One Who Even Mentioned 4! So Again Have A __/
You take a seat! Beyonce’s nominated because Love On Top was a single this year and it slayed the R&B Charts! 4 was nominated last year. Your just mad Rihanna didn’t win any awards 😛
HAHA.. Ummm… Wait.. I Don’t Even Like Rihanna’s Lame Ass.. TRY AGAIN!
i don’t get the awards break even date for these awards cause 4 was released like 2011, i thought it was for 2012.sometimes it feels like these lesser awards just award any artist or album they feel like.
All of the award shows, including the Grammys, have a long release qualification period. A portion of that period always precedes the show’s airing date by about a year. So all of the award shows often seem behind. Anyway, ‘4’ was released in 2011 but singles were still being released this year. So whether you go by the album release date or the release date of a particular single, it makes perfect sense that Beyonce would still be getting awards based on that album.
Yep. Love On Top was a single this year and it slayed the R&B charts (#1 for 7 consecutive weeks). That’s why she’s nominated!
Miguels hair was laaaid chile!
They kiss beyonce ass yet beyonce pays them dust when’s the last time beyonce attended/performed a this tacky event? oh ok
EXACTLY!! And They’re Still Up Her Ass. Smh!
I was thinking that maybe they would give the awards that Beyonce was nominated for to someone who was present but that didn’t happen. But the bottom line is she deserved those awards based on her work, present or not.
OK Having looked at the list again, I do have a few exceptions.
Best New Artist: Elle Varner
That award should have gone to Emeli Sande
Best R&B/ Soul Male Artist: Miguel
That award should have gone to Usher. Miguel has made zero contributions to the genre to merit him an award. His only hit to-date is “Sure thing” but they had to give him an award since he made an appearance I guess.
Song of the Year: Tyrese’s “Stay”
That award should have been given to Usher – Climax, it charted everywhere including outside the USA.
Best Independent R&B/ Soul Artist or Group: Eric Roberson
This award should have gone to Lisa Lavie, she is currently on a world tour.
But even with my exceptions, I trust the committee deciding these awards who got them knew what they were doing, so once again, congratulations to the winners.
I have to disagree Miguel deserved the award over Ush. Love and stan for them both. Adorn was a huge #1 hit on the R&B charts, manage to crack top 40 on Pop songs chart and was a top 20 hit on Billboard charts. Probably his biggest hit to date.
Omg yes Beyonce still winning
That best New Artist Lis was jacked the hell up.
Elle Varner-i love her album and her cooky take on R&B
Emeli Sande-my b**** i love her album
J.Cole-we all know i f*** with cole in every type of way
Luke James-that I want You songs.
I couldn’t choose.
Ugh this just makes me want Bey more! 🙁 #FEB3
Congrats to Beyonce for winning more awards! 😀 She just keeps winning awards but she hasn’t been releasing any new music lol.
Francine shouldn’t have gotten that album of the year win. Not only is the album not worthy of the award, but IMO there’s a real danger in award shows like Soul Train, BET, etc., etc. even nominating artists like Francine, let alone awarding them. Let’s not send the message that it’s at all acceptable…
looks like complete b******* to me! YAWN…who cares.
Beyonce again. Oh at 4flop longevity. Awards not through th unfair voting go beyonce.
I’m satisfied with the results! Congrats to all the winners!
FRANK OCEAN IS THE GENIUS!!!
Tot they said 4 was a flop but still winning big,beyhive Queen B did it again
4 is a classic
How is 4 a flop when it outsold other ppl albums….Just sayin….. So if your single do well and your album barely sells… i guest your album was a success….smh…
preach the Quing shall return
The 2012 Soul Train Awards Winners :
Best New Artist: Elle Varner – happy 4 her
Centric Award: Leah LaBelle – boo, Santigold shoulda won
Best Gospel/ Inspirational Performance: Whitney Houston & Jordin Sparks’ “Celebrate” – Congrats
Best Hip Hop Song of the Year: Kanye West ft. Big Sean, Pusha T and 2 Chainz’s “Mercy” – boo, even though a little salty w/ him I wanted Nas’ DAUGHTERS to win this
Best R&B/ Soul Female Artist: Beyonce – BOO!!!, this definitely should’ve gone to Melanie Fiona
Best R&B/ Soul Male Artist: Miguel – so happy 4 him
Album of the Year: Frank Ocean’s Channel Orange – Angered that not one female artist’s album was nominated hence the need to bring back the LADY OF SOUL AWARDS!! I’m not overly impressed with this album but given the nominees (Kanye shrug)
Song of the Year: Tyrese’s “Stay” – again, not overly impressed w/ single NOR am I a fan (another Kanye shrug)
The Ashford & Simpson Songwriter’s Award: “Tonight (Best You Ever Had)”: John Legend ft. Ludacris – boo, should’ve gone to the songwriting team for Nas’ DAUGHTERS
Best Dance Performance: Beyonce – “Love On Top” – agreed with this given the other nominees
CENTRICTV.com Best Caribbean Performance: Sean Paul’s “Tomahawk Technique” – I don’t listen to this type of music consistently enough to give an opinion
CENTRICTV.com Best International Performance: Estelle’s “Thank You” – BOO! While I like Estelle and this song is “ok”, I LOVE Emeli & Rebecca singles & albums more. They probably gave this to Estelle because her profile in the US is higher than the other two ladies.
CENTRICTV.com Best Independent R&B/ Soul Artist or Group: Eric Roberson – YESS! Werk, love him!
CENTRICTV.com Best Traditional Jazz Artist/ Group: TIE
*The Robert Glasper Experiment: Black Radio – happy for him!
