DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I look at the kind of music they honor, and I see no connection between the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yeongwon 2,631 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 probably have Ariana Grande sing something who do you think would do a good tribute Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just see a massive disconnect between what Aretha does and what that show honors. I HATE The BET Awards, but I know that they will have the best tribute, because they'll most likely bring out the old black singers with actual voices like Patti and Chaka.

witchcocktor 959 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I mean it's like damned if they do, damned if they don't. Media will spin it however they like either way. If VMAs don't pay tribute to Aretha: '' VMAs racist/sexist? Fails to acknowledge recently passed legendary black female artist, the queen of Soul, Aretha! '' If VMAs do pay tribute to Aretha: '' VMA butchers Aretha's classics - do this generation of artists have no talent?! '' (and this will happen no matter how respectful the musical tribute is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honeyhoney 153 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I don't expect the VMAs to do her justice. I'll wait for the Soul Train Awards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
