First off, let me just say WOW @ the ghetto-fab factor...Anyway,
I enjoyed:
*Monique as the host: I'm not a huge fan of hers or anything but girlfriend was working it in the outfits (
most of them were very pretty), and w/ her cute hair style & color. I like how she was telling the
Intro/ Crazy in Love Rendition: HI-LARIOUS
*Kanye's Performace w/ Miss Yolanda go on ahead ans shake 'em off!)
*Alicia Keys: good, as usual

*The Isley Borthers' Performance
*India.Arie's Tribute to Ray Charles: Just Beautiful!
*The 25th Aniversary of Hip-Hop Performances: TIGHT! Sugar Hill Gang was on point (who still has it, btw--I'm a younging but my Momma raised me right

), and I was LOVING Doug E. Fresh and Slick Rick, and also P. E. (their performance could've been a bit longer, IMO).
My WTF?! and/or LMAO Moments
*Jay-Z: Why didn't Kid Rock know his lyrics

*Outcast: I wasn't really feeling their performance
*Ronald Isley busting out Beyonce and Jay (they looked like deer caught in the headlights)
*Rick James...Dayum

I mean first of all the cameras practically went to him & Tina w/out any kind of intro...I looked up and there they were (unless I missed something

)...Anyway, WHY OH WHY did h!e have to act a fool? It's that girl's fault though (she should've known who he was).
*Usher: I'm a fan and all, but why was he doing a Britney-Spears-type performance?

Sing, Ok?
*Luda: I thought he looked kinda backwards w/ his fro and t-shirt & sneaks, w/ the mermaids in the background

LOL @ him giving a thank-you speech that was longer than Ushers, talking bout "I knkow it's your song but I'm feautured on it!"
