Ah bwoy, what do we have here? Brick and Lace? How much they paying then? No MTV Base nomination? Is that because UMAs went around saying they had them as sponsors before being outed on Twitter and threatened with legal action?
Explain this Most Inspirational Act category to me. I'm left slightly (I say slightly but I really mean completely) baffled about the possible criteria. Dealt with Brick and attach it to a Lace then dash it in a river. But Princess Nyah? Bahahahahahahha *inhales* aahahahahhahahaha. VV Brown? The Noisettes? You've got to be 'aving me on. I hope the "presenter" of the award will open the envelope then look in to camera B before saying "SYKE". LOLZ all around
Lol @ UMAs really thinking they will have a crowd. This needs to be held in a lesuire centre or someones house with Ustream or even a shed. I really cannot see this working after the much-publicised stabbing last year. In fact, Form 696 should just save the awards embarrassment and cancel it.
FAO organiser of UMA's: write a letter to the Form 696 people. May gain some sympathy. Failing that, hold it in a living room, have a couple bredrins in the back sharing a big bowl of fufu, playing dominoes (reppin the Yardman and Africans) & pick the winners from a dutch pot.
Ratings for what you tried last year still. It was going alright for an alternative, no frills version of MOBOs, but mm mm (said quickly = disaproval) this nah mek it. Surry barsss (sorry boss).

You know what? As I read them nominations my eyebrows had a frenzy.... They went up and down so often I'm thinking I may as well audition for the next Cadbury's advert!!
ReplyDeleteI would go through each category and point out the flaws but I'd be writing another blog post myself but I will say this: I hope you copied and pasted this list because 'BBE' - Too Many Man?? Well I wonder what that's supposed to mean? Boy Better Eat? Boy Better Educate? Who knows!?
But I agree, after last year, UMA should just put their awards in a cabinet cause I surely won't be attending!! (Who with half a brain cell and lack of a death wish would?)
Where is this Form 696 when we need it!!??
wow, it makes the mobos look positively sane.
