Probably not. She doesn't really have a HUGE fan base, especially one that votes online for awards.

gaga got 3 noms tho
hockeychick57 21st-Jul-2011 03:39 am (UTC)
any of these people worth checking out?


Best New Artist:
Big Sean
Foster The People
Kreashaywn
Tyler The Creator
Wiz Khalifa


haven't heard of any of them.
mountainblack 21st-Jul-2011 03:40 am (UTC)
lol noo
deathcabparami 21st-Jul-2011 03:40 am (UTC)
really? You never heard of "black and yellow"??
hockeychick57 21st-Jul-2011 03:43 am (UTC)
oh yeah. is that his only hit? is that even a hit? i thought it was just some random song my brother was making me listen to to annoy me.
kimberwyn 21st-Jul-2011 06:08 am (UTC)
which one sang that?
morgan90 21st-Jul-2011 03:40 am (UTC)
No, except for Kreashaywn for pure novelty's sake.
calcified 21st-Jul-2011 03:41 am (UTC)
No
Uh they have that one song you've probably heard but didn't know was them that actually came out over a year ago but w/e MTV
Fuck no
Double fuck no?
You really never heard "Black and Yellow"?
celebratty 21st-Jul-2011 03:43 am (UTC)
Lol, well, a couple of those might be an acquired taste. ONTD hates Tyler and Kreashawyn (rightfully so) and the rest aren't really good artists...

You should just listen to them and decide for yourself, tbh...
dancedallnight 21st-Jul-2011 03:43 am (UTC)
if you like passion pit, you'd probably like foster the people
cantbetamed 21st-Jul-2011 03:44 am (UTC)
idc, i love this

bgwqlc 21st-Jul-2011 03:46 am (UTC)
Foster the People's "Pumped Up Kicks" is a good song but I don't know anything else by them. Everyone else is meh.
weareglorious 21st-Jul-2011 03:49 am (UTC)
I love Foster the People's album that came out this year.
bellwetherr 21st-Jul-2011 03:51 am (UTC)
i actually LOVE foster the people, fuck everybody else.
u_belong_to_me 21st-Jul-2011 03:54 am (UTC)
As others have said, Wiz Khalifa's "Black and Yellow" is very popular. I'm not too into him, but I do think his "Pittsburgh Sound" is really good.



etoile_amore 21st-Jul-2011 03:58 am (UTC)
FOSTER THE PEOPLE

they're fabulous, listen to Pumped Up Kicks & Helena Beat
you won't regret it
braindrain 21st-Jul-2011 04:08 am (UTC)
all of these people are deluded about Foster The People not being worth listening to. and even then, pumped up kicks and helena beat are second rate songs on this album- try Houdini first (best song on the album imo) then I Would Do Anything For You (super catchy cheese summer love song)



Edited at 2011-07-21 04:09 am (UTC)
anniemann101 21st-Jul-2011 04:15 am (UTC)
Wiz, foster the people. that's about it. darwin deez and grizzly bear not being in this list is blasphemy.

mtv sux now.
k_p_makepeace 21st-Jul-2011 04:20 am (UTC)
foster the people definitely

idk the rest
sevenbeat 21st-Jul-2011 04:54 am (UTC)
just omit Kreashaywn and tyler and listen to the rest
adnamay 21st-Jul-2011 05:31 am (UTC)
Foster the People is worth checking out. They are by no means my favorite band on CD or live, but they are fun & enjoyable.
bob80 21st-Jul-2011 05:31 am (UTC)
I've never heard of them. Does this make me old?
den_pirre 21st-Jul-2011 10:21 am (UTC)
foster the people - pupmed up kicks is actually really good and catchy :)
imightbe_wrong 21st-Jul-2011 04:15 pm (UTC)
I like Whiz Khalifa a lot, and Tyler, The Creator. Tyler is offensive as fuck (as is Odd Future) but there's real brilliance simmering underneath all the rage.

I love Big Sean's verse in "See Me Now" (MBDTF bonus track), but I haven't heard his own stuff yet.

"Gucci Gucci" is catchy as fuck but I don't think Kreayshawn is really worth paying THAT MUCH attention to.
thestarsamurai 22nd-Jul-2011 01:49 am (UTC)
Don't listen to ONTD when it comes to Tyler or OFWGKTA. Basically they're universally hated upon here. You either hate them or love them. And I love them so fucking much. (I AM NOT ASHAMED OF IT - BRING YOUR PITCHFORKS, I DGAF.) So just test run a few tracks and see what happens after that ("Yonkers", "VCR/Wheels", "Analog", "Orange Juice", and "Seven" are a few of my many favorites).

Kreayshawn...eh...she's someone to listen to when you don't want to take anything seriously (like Lil B - but he actually has some redeeming tracks in-between). She's also a hate it or love it thing. One of my friends LOVES her stuff. I'm not...warming up to her voice yet. Her voice is a more grating version of Uffie and Ke$ha.

Wiz...some of his stuff is good. I forget what songs I liked since I haven't listened to anything full-length from him, mixtape-wise or album-wise. But he does have a Chrono Trigger-sampled song, if that's...any motivation to check him out. LOL.

I haven't checked out the other artists though. So I can't really say anything for them.

BRITNEY WAS ROBBED!
SHE DESERVED A ZILLION MORE NOMINATIONS!

I was surprised she wasn't in Best Female Video over Bey tbh
ms_firecrotch 21st-Jul-2011 03:54 am (UTC)
"deserved", past tense, ia. she deserved noms for all her past videos that got snubbed, but nothing current

but i am surprised 'hold it against me' got nothing
bob80 21st-Jul-2011 05:32 am (UTC)
Till The World Ends was really good. tbh all her videos this era are good.
den_pirre 21st-Jul-2011 10:21 am (UTC)
i was shocked!

ONLY 2 NOMINATIONS??? :o
poison20 21st-Jul-2011 03:39 am (UTC)
just give all the awards to Adele. and dont bother with the awards. i dont need another 'twilight wins all' style show
ladyserenity84 21st-Jul-2011 04:19 am (UTC)
To be honest, I don't think it's going to be that simple with Adele winning all the awards, since it's MTV, and I don't know how the demographic fares in voting.
editnoir 21st-Jul-2011 04:58 am (UTC)
I can confirm that you pay to win awards at MTV... Do her people have deep pockets?
kathrynfan 21st-Jul-2011 06:06 am (UTC)
you also pay to win oscars as well it happens at every awards show
zipster 21st-Jul-2011 03:39 am (UTC)

from taylor swifts win over single ladies i don't understand why b stans are still mad?

this is how the world works unfortunately. learned this shit in high school

you work hard and strive to become a genius to get to somewhere some people just had to sit down and do literally nothing to get to it.

that is unfortunately life.
spininaround 21st-Jul-2011 04:47 am (UTC)
Single ladies is overrated as fuck.
Stay pressed
itsrelaxicab 21st-Jul-2011 04:59 am (UTC)
Lmfao calm down. Adele is was more talented than any of her competition and doesn't rely on her looks. If anything, she's the one who has worked hard and made strides in life.

exactly. She sat in a chair and slayed all the rest of these over the damn top people. I applaud her.
rowanx 21st-Jul-2011 04:38 am (UTC)
Proves you don't need an over the top, over choreographed video to get the message of the song across
bob80 21st-Jul-2011 05:34 am (UTC)
I agree. The VMAs basically nominates videos based on the song. Yet it is called "video" music awards. A good song doesn't mean the video was good. A bad song can have a good video.
