Love, Peace, and No More Soul

The Soul Train Awards have been yanked from the airwaves with no explaination of why. The award show was scheduled to air its 22 show this year.



This is pretty sad. I definitely watched Soul Train growing up, but I have no idea who hosted the show after Shemar Moore, and that was like when? 1998?
Unfortunately, while some people are lamenting the loss of the award show, I can't really say I'm suprised. If most of the nominated acts don't bother to show up, and they're still nominating acts like BoyzIIMen that were good in their time but haven't put out new material in years, and then on top of that, no one's watching, it's bound to happen.

No word yet on if the ax on this award show will have any affect on the Lady of Soul Awards.
