Politics as usual…how does Em appear so many times on this list? I’m a fan of Em; however, Relapse was mediocre at best. After the release of BP3, Hov should snag both Favorite Male Artist and Favorite Album!
AMA is based on record sales.
This makes me sick!!! They should have gave Michael Jackson more propz when he lived!!!!!! Now that he’s dead and everybody (in the media!!) is enjoying this MJ hype people ‘recognize’ the talent!
FUCK OFF ALL HYPOCRITE MEDIA!!!
Michael, I understand what you’re saying, but the AMA’s are based on record sales. This isn’t the MSM, it’s the general public FINALLY buying up all his CD’s. So, instead of spitting all that hateful venom, see it as recognition that is better too late than never. I would have much rathered he be here to receive this and that all this love was shown back when it was released instead of now that he’s deceased.
Mike will take evrything ! Hope Beyonce does well !!! She shud have been n the album of the year instead of Swift. But it’s politics as usual lol !
if its base on record sales the why include BP3 which just release how is it fair when the other album has been release so long ago
The cutoff time for AMA nominations is in late Aug/early Sept. That’s how BP3 was nominated.
As far as “how is it fair when the other album has been release so long ago” it goes by sales ya dummy!!!! Don’t you read???? It doesn’t matter if it was released in the past.
