Dear Mr. Jackson,
I’m somewhere between too busy and not interested, to make time for your opportunism and whining.
Sincerely,
All of Us

The Rev. Jesse L. Jackson is going to have a cow when a lily white 23 year old girl from the UK sweeps the Grammys...Kayne West is going to explode. Definitely don't miss this years Grammys!!!

"
Mr. Jackson told The Associated Press that he wanted cooperation, not confrontation with the recording academy, but he also said he..."

Good name for him. He has made a career of it, and it works, it got one kid of his into Congress and another a good beer distributorship.
It has kept him in new suits all of his life and he doesn’t even have a church.
Does anyone actually watch the Grammy’s?

Perhaps it’s because “certain groups” wouldn’t know a music note if it hit them in their Cadillac Escalade.
Ooops, didn’t say that.
Move along, move along.

Has anyone done a study on the effect of the music/message of the “cultural” genre on academic performance?

I have noticed there is less and less of Jackson since obama got elected. He’s really desperate to take up this “cause”.

Many rappers have been excluded from the competition now because the category for “stolen songs that have been remixed and make big bucks for me and my homies” has been eliminated.
Islands in the Stream? Gimme a break.
WITHOUT YOUR SUPPORT, WE GO DARK.
DON'T LET THAT HAPPEN.
DONATE TODAY!
