There are only two weeks to go before the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards, and the excitement’s growing like wildfire.
Kanye, Rihanna, Chris Brown, Katy Perry… so many great artists are up for awards. Kanye should win with Good Life, but I’ve thought that before. Frankly, he should have accumulated a shelf full of awards for his videos by now. He’s a creative genius and we all know it. Why not just give him his awards and sleep well at night?!

I saw the Adele music video for the first time just a few weeks ago. Very innovative choreography. I wish her the best. She is one of my favorite underrated artists of 2008.
Stopping by to show some love to a fellow music lover. I admire and am inspired by lovers of music…especially those artists willing to step outside the mainstream and remain true to themselves. Stop by and visit sometime.
Much respect to you and best regards,
