no niggas lol
dam right!!!
lol no Beyonce
ditto!
beyonce had a baby last year and then took the next year off.
oh my blackness! urban music fell off, especially hip hop. I guess people got tired of hearing the same stories for 2 decades.
RIP 90′s Hip Hop, R&B and Soul.
We done let them water down real black music with this nonsense, downgraded bullshit they put out. I wish the real stuff would come back not the im a d-boy or a slut music that we have let enter the scene and make a mainstay.
We’re complaining about there being no black people on the list, but which ones actually went on tour last year, beyonce is touring this year and so is Rihanna so the list might look different then, if they did tour if wasn’t in huge venues or stadiums or for months
Jay Z didn’t make the list. According to Meekmill’s IG he should have made the list too. j/k. LMAO
