Soultrain Music Awards: The Good, Bad & Mediocore + Photos & Pix

Sunday evening, the 2010 Soul Train Music Awards aired, with Terrence Howard and Taraji P. Henson hosting. I don’t mean no harm, but I didn’t know people still watched this awards show, but whatever==no judgement.

So, who won what? Check the list below w/ my un-asked for interjected thoughts.

  • Centric Award: Janelle Monae (Agreed)
  • Album of the Year: Usher’s Raymond vs. Raymond (Never listened; perhaps I should?)
  • Best Male R&B Soul: Trey Songz & Usher Tie (There’s no tie’ing in baseball, folks.)

  • Best Female R&B Soul: Alicia Keys (Kanye moment, sorry, Beyonce)
  • Record of the Year: Alicia Keys’ “Unthinkable- I’m Ready”
  • Song of the Year: B.O.B’s “Nothing on You” feat. Bruno Mars

  • Best Reggae Artist of the Year: Gyptian
  • Best Gospel Performance of the Year: Marvin Sapp (I’m not a gospel girl, but my momma is; lemme ask her what she thinks.)
  • Best New Artist: Melanie Fiona
  • Best Hip-Hop Song of the Year: Eminem’s”Love the Way You Lie” feat. Rihanna (Now, I understand why Rick Ross had an adult tantrum about this.)
  • Best Dance Performance: Ciaria’s “Ride” (I was thinking Beyonce’s “Single Ladies”)

Check the photos & video performance of what took place.

Here’s Erykah Badu’s performance that was a bit of a yawn-fest (love her tho), minus the make-up

Another highlight of the show is of CNN’s Wolf Blitzer learning the Dougie, by the  man himself.
