The Soul Train Awards Are CANCELLED ... Possibly Forever!!!! - MediaTakeOut.com™ 2008


THE SOUL TRAIN AWARDS ARE CANCELLED ... POSSIBLY FOREVER!!!!
 







April 17, 2008. LOS ANGELES (Reuters Life!) - It's the end of the line for the Soul Train Music Awards, which have largely been ignored by the African-American stars the event aims to honor.

A spokeswoman said the show would not go ahead with its 22nd annual installment this year, but a reason was not specified.

At last year's event in Pasadena, most of the winners did not show up, including such A-listers as Beyonce Knowles, Mary J. Blige, John Legend and Gnarls Barkley.

The show takes place a few weeks after the Grammys, the music industry's top awards. Similarly themed ceremonies like the BET Awards have also provided some competition.

Perhaps more critically, the underlying syndicated dance show "Soul Train" ended its historic run in 2006. It was distributed by Tribune Entertainment, which exited the syndication business when billionaire Sam Zell took its Tribune Co. parent private late last year in a highly leveraged deal.

The "Soul Train" TV show has served as an important promotional springboard for black music's biggest stars since launching in national syndication in 1971. It claimed to be the longest-running show airing in first-run syndication.

The franchise is the brainchild of Don Cornelius, an ambitious Chicago DJ who decided in the late '60s that there was a need for a TV show featuring young black people dancing to recorded music. Few shared his view, and he self-funded a pilot in 1969. It aired on a Chicago TV station the following year, and quickly became a hit.

Cornelius, famed for an expansive afro in his younger days, hosted the show for the first 22 years. But he has kept a low public profile and rarely consents to interviews. He tearfully accepted a Grammy Award for lifetime achievement in 2005.

    That is really a shame! Just because we get a few awards at these American award shows should not mean we neglect what has always supported and uplifted us. I am really sad to hear this because we as a people already have a hard time sticking together and when we get money, we don't even acknowledge one another.

    One of the only black owned enterprises in the entertainment industry and we can't even give the time to support it by showing up and getting the award. What a fuking shame. A legendary show gone down the drain.

    Ignoring Soul Train is like black people saying Kool-Aid never happend. Once these stars get to a certain status they ignore their people.
    That's why our stars are going to the dad-gum CMA's! Where are we doin that at!? It's just a shame

    It's a shame that the quality of music has sunk so low that the "Soul Train" TV show had to be cancelled. People probably don't wanna go to the awards cuz there is no more "Soul Train". Yet, the "Source Awards" is still around...

    Soul Train still comes on in my neck of the woods, guess when? At 3am and they're usually old episodes from the 70s and 80s which are a riot to see.
    As for the awards show it usually has an awful day/time slot when it airs.

    With so many awards shows on the air, this one has become outdated, and many celebrities don't even take it seriously. There are so many networks who have larger budgets and audiences and opportunities for higher ratings. It is all about how many people are watching and whose performance will be the most memorable. If no one is watching, why should the celebrities even bother showing up?

    SO WHAT!!! The "soul" was mysteriously removed from Soul Train like 15+ years ago! It used to be a DREAM for entertainers to perform there. Now the sh** is just "watered down". I imagine that the Soul Train Awards show followed the orignal shows lead. I cant even remember the last time I watched either programs.

    I haven't watched that awards show in years. It got real wack towards the end. And you know it's time to shut it down when the nominees don't even show up to see if they won.

    It’s Thursday, I’m back

    What do you want me to do?? I’m sorry rent is due !!!

    I came out my Momma’s pvssy I was on welfare..

    I’m 26 years old and I’m still on welfare…

    So I got to get paid fully…whether it’s truthfully or untruthfully..

    Ya feel me???

    So far some of you guys have been cooperating with Ya Boy Omar!!!

    I appreciate the love..

    However I keep getting complaints.. especially from the ‘Main Crew” (talking about they are locked out)

    Well I told you Knuckle heads last week that if you don’t pay rent then you will not have access to the facilities.. GOT THAT???

    Yall keep thinking this some Comic View situation..

    Ya Boy Omar don’t play no games..

    I run MTO!!!!

    This week I have to expose a few more Knuckle heads for refusing to pay their rent..
    This is the Number 2 person the list.

    2) IGNORANT_STL…….AKA…… The Hider
    He is known to hang out in the Forum… AKA… Loserville ….AKA…Cornball Alley

    If Anybody Knows this young man’s whereabouts please flag his post and the authorities will take care of it.

    Unfortunately the Economy is not looking well so Ya Boy Omar has to raise rent for a few people on MTO. I will be coming out with the list very shortly.

    The first person on this list is:

    Blackexec (business has been good for you since you’ve been on MTO) I’m gonna have to charge you $3,000.00 per week for the privileges for being on this site.

    caramelprinze
    Of course everything has to come to an end. It's just sad that once again, black people cannot support anything positive to the black community. These black stars can all attend the grammys but when it comes to supporting your own...who cares. Don't tell me it's a scheduling conflict because they have they power to create their own schedules. Pathetic!!! Black stars need to be ashamed of themselves...once again black empowerment undone by black people...

    I use to like the Soul Train. However, it seem like Black stars are not showing up for the Soul Train awards once they make it "BIG TIME". The last Soul Train award show that I watch was sort of boring like it had no life to it. Oh well another Black show bites the dust. The white man keeping the Black man down lol.

    That's a damn shame all these black stars who grew up watching Soul Train in turning their backs on the awards brought it to this...I feel so bad for Don Cornelius and all the work he put in when there wasn't a format for Black Folks outta his own pocket.Just goes to show you like my grandmother use to say Black People don't appreciate s**t sometimes.."

    Soul Train was a great show but it had run its course. How many shows actually stay on TV for 22 years? It had a great run.

    As for awards shows, there are way too many. NAACP, Soul Train, BET, VIBE, and another one was just recently started. Next we'll have the Black Planet awards. It's just too much and people are tuning out.

    Also, some of the gangsta celebs not use to ceremonies, want to bring the street behavior into a formal environment.

    Don Cornelius is old by now. Heck, he looked old toward the end of Soul Train, that's probably why he's not doing any interviews. Lena Horne stopped giving interviews in her late 80s. They don't want the public to see what they look like now. Remember Bette Davis giving interviews at 100! She looked horrible.

    While the Soul Train award had the tendency to be a bit corny, it was an award show that solely recognized black artists-we need to support our stuff. It will only be a matter of time until the BET awards will be a distant memory!

    The white award shows will always be up and running because they have SUPPORT from the artists that they nominate! Anyway, I'm sad to see it go...

    I understand what you are saying but how far are we supposed to go when we are "supporting our people" FACE FACTS: Soul Train was watered down to appeal to a larger audience. It became whack and rather than adding the white audience to create a larger viewership, they excluded EVERYONE!

    The day BET (Viacom owned) becomes MTV, I'M OUT!!! And BET needs to step it up their damn selfs. I like College Hill, Hell Date, Keisha Cole & SOB but when are they gonna start buying scripts like Girlfriends and The Game???

    I'll never forget watching the 1st Soul Train awards show back in 1987, when Whitney Houston's name was BOOED when announced. And Don C, reportedly admonished the crowd for doing it. I believe that was the beginning of Whitney's slide downwards.

    The end of an institution. It's really sad that Black recording artists are more concerned about Grammys or American Music Awards than Soul Train awards. Dick Clark don't give a f%ck about 50 Cent and neither does anyone on the Grammy committee. Don Cornelius started Soul Train to give Black music artists a platform in which to gain exposure to ensure some sort of longevity for their careers. He never discriminated against obscure or unknown artists and he gave them the same ability to shine as he gave platinum artists.

    I sincerely hope that the Soul Train awards will return at some point. It's sad that we (as a race) do not respect nor protect what was created for us, by us, to help us flourish personally and professionally.

    This is a sad story.

    I grew up during the "Sooooul" Train era and it was fantastic venue for AA artist who did not have an exclusive platform to share their talent until Soul Train. It's ashame that the new artist can't respect the award to honor them before the Grammys even considered their talent and support the Soul Train awards as the trailblazer it's been for many AA artist. But in the words of Don Cornelius..LOVE...PEACE...and SOUL.

    nobody even shows up to the Soul Train Awards.
    They should have had another mature black man to host after Don.
    It seemed like they wanted a young fresh face, and that didn't work to me.
    ..someone like Donnie Simpson, or even a Steve Harvey..someone older but still 'hip' could have kept this show relevant.

    3rd) Now that they cancelled the show, Now where are we gonna watch multi-millionaire nigggas act like fucc'in common street animals?
