No Soul Train Awards this year

Say it ain’t so. I just read a Reuter’s article about how the Soul Train Awards are not happening this year. Check out the first line of the article that is very disturbing:
It’s the end of the line for the Soul Train Music Awards, which have largely been ignored by the African-American stars the event aims to honor.
(emphasis added)
That is truly disheartening that this generation of African American musicians are literally ignoring the Soul Train awards.
The article mentions that most of the winners did not show up to last year’s awards.
Ouch.
I bet every single one of them were at the BET awards (which I suspect will begin having a “video hoe of the year” soon).

Unfortunately, the quality of the show also deteriorated a bit, almost down to the level of the BET awards. That’s when it lost my interest.
