Soul Train Awards Appreciation Thread - 30 Year Anniversary

[jackson35]

That's not true. I watched the show and Bell Biv Devoe thanked Don Cornelius.

who else? does bell biv devoe count? they had a relationship

Well, I was addressed your comment which was false.

Also, everyone in the audience clapped when they thanked him. Maybe, they didn't feel to keep saying it over and over again because it's obvious that there would be no Soul Train without Don.

 

[jackson35]

I just know who they answer to at the end of the day.

and the funny stuff that's been on the show, that wouldn't have went down otherwise.

You didn't specify in your original comment. You said that Don wasn't thanked in "any of the speeches"....that is false.

If you meant Toni and SWV then yes...they didn't thank Don.

Soul train used to mean the Sat morning cartoons were over and everybody bout to wake up...so that meant for me to get on my bike and go explore all day...unless it was raining or too cold...

ever since the st awards started, 90 percent of the industry treated him funky, then after a while he could not get anyone who was won to appear to accept.

never be another x

"get at me dog" = #1 rap single

album was a big deal out the gate.

It's already been established in our on going debates that GET AT ME DOG was bigger than RR ANTHEM on the charts. RR anthem wasn't for sale as a single till it was on a b side waaaaaay after the album was out.
This isn't news. Actually my theory makes perfect sense. RR anthem hits the radio a week before the album,it's not for sale,you have to buy the album to possess it,despite the album doing 250k the first week,the great RR ANTHEM Carried the album to 4mil+ via all the fans that had to have that fantastic record.
Meanwhile,so called smash single GET AT ME DOG stopped at gold,despite having plenty of time to sale prior to the album release

I was in agreement with ruff ryder anthem being his biggest hit.

but you tried to make it seem like he wasn't already big. his 1st single out the gate was #1.

I said he wasn't whom he became,out the gate and I still feel that way. None of the info you just provided,is news to me. And if you remove RR anthem,he'd never be a hip hop Don. I stand on that still

nah.

you were saying that swizz blew him up.

and you were claiming random rappers as bigger than DMX before the anthem.

I said without swizz he would have never been a superstar and i still feel like that. None of your new posts changes that.
As big as get at me dog was on the charts,it sold meh. That says alot.
Like it was worked well at radio but the fans wasn't pressed for it.
And yes i was right about the rappers i named ,being bigger than x prior to rr anthem
