Offset used to be a BACKGROUND DANCER for Whitney Houston and TLC. I wonder if he is GAY. U KNOW HE FROM ATL YALL SO HE PROBABLY GAY. THANK GOD I ain’t let him eat my box.
YALL know he was BEGGING to eat it but something always made me say “HELL NO N|GGA how much money u got.” He always said he ain’t got no money so I said HELL NO to him eating my box. He was ALSO ALWAYS begging to eat by booty hole which I thought was STRANGE since I NEVER let a man stick me in the 2nd hole but now it make sense why he was BEGGING. I HOPE CARDI get the A|Ds test:

Ne-Yo absolutely has the most underrated album of the year. People said, “Why don’t you go back to your sound?” “Why so much EDM?” I was one of those people, and then I went out and bought Good Man the day of release because I heard a return to “In My Own Words” and “Year of the Gentleman”. It’s a real shame that people didn’t buy the new music even after Ne-Yo gave everything we asked for. There isn’t a song on the album I don’t like.
I AGREE WITH YOU!!! Even the few songs i don’t care for are likeable. Very good album.
This is STUPID.
1. Why are there no nominations for Jasmine being the MOST POPULAR TGJ member?
2. Where are the nominations for Jasmine?
3. Where are the nominations for my girl Rasputia Lattimore as the most popuar TGJ member?
4. Why do users have the ability to vote for more than 1 checkbox under the given categories?
5. Where is the Jasmine MVP award?
6. Where is the Jasmine recognition?
7. Why are the awards about music artists and NOTHING to do with TGJ itself?
8. This is a GOSSIP site. Why are yall pretending like yall give a sh|t about music anymore?
I agree babe. You deserve ALL the awards. You are the ESSENCE that keeps this site afloat. Without you, there would be no TGJ. I only come on here once in a while just to see your comments.
Girl u know I deserve all the awards and NOT you. I am the Royal Highness so that is how things go. LOL
Voted
Why is there no mention of K-pop ? BTS is huge !
Should add instagramers and youtubers categories for next year
K-poop is corny as hell and must stay In Asia
I definitely voted for Cardi B This Was Her Year & Next Year She Will continue to shine Yessir #Bardigangganggang???????❤️???
Thank you for including Mya TKO. That was the best R&B album of the year. Idc what anyone says. The fellas are arguing over King of R&B and none of them have produced an album as good as Mya TKO in the past years.
That is so true. T.K.O definitely was a well produced R&B album and one that I play consistently. Definitely is an underrated album, She did the damn thing!!!
I voted for Normani She’s so amazing and talented , next year will be her year because her amazing first album will be released , she deserves everything ? she will get all the awards ?
Lauren jauregui expectations
First and foremost “Love Lies” is much more of Khalid’s song than Normani, but OK. In the nominations it is clear as day that Normani is the next TGJ Kelly Rowland, ha ha. I guess good for her, it certainly helped out Kelly Rowland a lot.

Why wasn’t Nicki’s whole album in return to sender? How on earth is Nicki included as best female with the lack of success she had this year. Flop album, canceled tour.
Can you stop being toxic?
Nicki minaj album was literally the best album of the year and also the no 2 album on billboard hot 200.
So please save your thoughts to yourself
How surprising you slipped In flopyonce in almost every category. Yawn, how boring and predictable. She has 0 success on a album year for her. You guys are such frauds.
All them bum n I g g e r s. Where’s my white peeps?
Vote Normani!!
How is Ariana not up for Best Female?
A contender for the Next To Blow award https://youtu.be/WWMUcIH1m4Y
It was a crazy year
First off, “memoirs” is spelled wrong. Please hire an editor.
Second, it’s absurd that you don’t have Mariah in “Best Female” category and laughable that you don’t have the lambs in the fanbase category. Hello, they got a 16-year-old album to #1 on iTunes.
One Mariah category ? Really? And a million for beyonce , but Mariah was way more seen this year, broke records this year, her fan base not nominated for almost active fan base yet Glitter went to #1 in multiple countries. Y’all stay riding beyonce when she flopped with j this year but ok ?
