Someone, on here, usually alerts me when it's on. Can't remember who. ;-)

[janbee]

Oh no, me too. Did I win? Aw no, passed by again !

[douglas9401]

Was Tom Jones among the nominees?

[Svejk]

^Lol.

Ha- Tom Jones. I'd forgotten about that DNA test.

Sam Smith swept the boards last year. I'm not aware of his heritage but he is definitely not black.

You can see the winners here for 2015 and see what you missed. How many have you heard of? https://www.mobo.com/winners/2015

Did you also miss this as well ?

The MOBO awards is not specifically / exclusively for black people .
It is celebrating Music Of Black Origin .
So you could be as white as a sheet and get an award

Would It be racism if we had a MOWO, Music Of White Origin?

[Mamyalynne]

Course not, set one up.

[hc4361]

trt, that point is raised here every year. There are many music awards that are of white origin.

[Mamyalynne]

Recorder set, ta for the reminder.

[douglas9401]

Ta, Svejk. :-)
