We went to check out the BMI Urban Awards last night for some real authentic urban entertainment. It kinda felt like a 106 & Park virtual reality experience (after not watching it for over a year), with sounds, sights and scents (eeew) reminiscent of the A!!! Shouts out to Atlanta who was DEFinitely in the house rackin up all the awards… well, the half that T-Pain didn’t scoop up for self. That dude’s percentage of the 900 million BMI made this year has gotta be close to half if not more!! Crazy.
We frospotted Plantlife’s Jack Splash while hanging during the pre-show…
and got a extra special treat w/ the Jabbawockeez from MTV’s America’s Best Dance Crew doing their part of the night’s Jackson 5 tribute. They rocked silver versions of their trademark masks and AFROS! Check out this “Dancing Machine” clip we captured at the show…
In the house accepting the honors were all the Jacksons, sans Michael (bummer) - but it was cool to see all the brothers AND Janet, LeToya and Rebbie and mama and papa J. We were up top so really only got pix of the screens…
(be nice! LOL)
& I dunno why, but I saw this in the girls bathroom and it just kinda summed up the awards for some reason!
