MOBO awards?!


Question: Why do we have MOBO awards (music of black origin) and not MOWO awards. Is this not a form of racism against white musicians?

If we were to have MOWO awards would there be an uproar?

If we were to have MOWO awards would there be an uproar? I've often said the same thing myself! There's nothing wrong with being proud of your art and what you do, but you're right - if they came up with the MOWO awards there would be absolute outrage and any musicians that aren't white would definitely call it racism - so what makes this any different? it is without a doubt racism or as we now call it "positive discrimination"

MOWO would start riots all over the country I think the MOBO's were created as a reaction to Black artists never getting a look in at the other awards ceremonies and being ignored (how many times have we read people saying 'How can you call rap, music?' on here). Obviously this has changed over time but the ceremony still exists.
In a perfect world there would be neither MOBO or MOWO and there would just be awards for good music as the origin doesn't really matter.
I've read a lot of these questions on here lately and it depresses me. They essentially boil down to the 'well, if you can have black pride then you can have white pride' argument. All of these view points maintain the divide and serve to continue the separation. Maybe it would be better for all of us if we started just having human pride rather than persisting in these outdated and moronic one upmanship contests. The objective is to give minority groups something to strive for, and in time, to allow them to compete with the general population.

We have special olympics, and some have later competed successfully with able bodied groups.

Additionally some special groups are judged by those of the same group as the best, as the general population may not appreciate their specialist type of work.
