Quite a ruckus Kanye West has caused.
With all said and done, opinions blasted over sets, we unite in the understanding that what he did was wrong. Yet, the beauty that came from it in Beyonce’s graceful allowance to Taylor Swift was such a magnificent testament to our society — one of good hearts.
Jay Leno goes to ask Kanye, “What would your mother think if she saw that?” When I heard that question it made me wonder, “What would I do if Kanye West was my actual blood brother?” Would I disown him over this? Probably not. Is it unforgivable?
This mini mix has a special place in my heart for many reasons, the top 2:
1 — DJ Buddy stepped out of his comfort zone, gave country music a chance, and mixed a beautiful union between two opposites.
2 — We forgot the most important message at the VMAs which was during Madonna’s speech: she spoke of the mistakes we made together, when we turned our backs on another human being.
I hope you all can see the beauty in this mix, the reason behind making it a union, rather than a battle, and the selective choices in the title.
Excerpts from Madonna’s tribute to Michael Jackson at the VMAs:
All I could think about in this moment was, “I had abandoned him.” That we had abandoned him. That we had allowed this magnificent creature who had once set the world on fire to somehow slip through the cracks. While he was trying to build a family and rebuild his career, we were all passing judgement. Most of us had turned our backs on him.
But he was also a human being, and alas we are all human beings and sometimes we have to lose things before we can appreciate them.
