AHAHAHAHAHA!!!  The ‘that’ is in reference to Madonna’s Prince tribute performance   at the Billboard awards yesterday. No, of course I didn’t watch it, I don’t watch TV, but I caught a clip of it on Dlisted. Awful. But I knew it would be. She was the wrong choice. There was even a petition online against her being the sole performer for such a tribute.

So now BET is going to do one and PLEASE DO IT RIGHT!!! Include artists he worked with the most like Sheila E, Wendy & Lisa, Jill Jones, The Time, his old band members from Madhouse, the Revolution, New Power Generation, etc, etc. THEY were close to him, THEY knew his sound, THEY were apart of it. Yeah, yeah, I know they aren’t considered ‘relevant’ by some, but it’s not a fucking popularity contest! This is the ONLY way a Prince tribute can be done RIGHT.

And of course, people being people, and the internet being what it is….are making the BET advertisements into a race thing. *sigh*  But they’ve thrown the shade, so now they better get it right.

(PS–Team Sheila E….always!)
