I love him. How random that he was in Talladega Nights like that.
thats funny
damn, whatever happened to freedom of speech and freedom to peaceably assemble?
guess being black is still illegal in america
Government sucks.
coooooooool
Love Mos Def! He could put all those shit-heads that call themselves 'artists' to shame! He is real hip-hop/rap; not Puff-Shitty and 50Cent!
.........oh good........I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought Justin Timberlake was repetetive and boring. Sounds like the better entertainment was outside.
Did he disrobe? WTF?
thats sadness
Amen to the Justin Timberlake comment! His performance was the only one I was looking forward to and it ended up sucking royaly! MTV needs to get its act together or I'm making my own award show in my backyard using my stuff animals as the audience. I bet it would be more entertaining than a multi-million dollar show like that shit was!
His was probably the best performance of the night.
Justin Timberlake's "SexyBack" climbed 29 spots back up to No. 1 on Billboard's Hot 100 singles chart
i don't even know what to say to that
how can such a shitty song.... good god
well, at least the drug dealers and hookers had an easy night.
that's the damn truth. they should have put the cameras outside and locked everyone in the freaking building up for public indecency.
Katrina Clap sounds like an STD!
OT: Camel has been in the bathroom a LONG time and I drank too much coffee and I am very uncomfortable and inappropriately angry right now
well you know what they say.. george bush doesn't care about black people.. or rather the kingdom of george bush represses criticism of his administration to the -enth.. dante's just damned lucky dick cheney and his shoot first ask questions later mental aptitude weren't there..
panic at the disco sucked donkeys nuts.

sooooo true........can I come and be an audience member with the animals?
if dubya could get away with it, he'd just bomb new orleans to shut up the katrina survivors
i expect it any day now.. "we have strong evidence that the poor black people of new orleans have weapons of mass destruction..."
Good. Fuck Him. More like the Mos Def clap.
Mishma: You are in for a treat, I gather... Do you have some air freshener? Valiums? Doc Martens with which to kick the door?
amen celebrity hater.. amen..
George Bush doesn't like black people, news at 11, bwhahahahaha
-hates me some GWB
No, MizRo and I am so afraid, hold me
It's the best publicity this hack has had in years. I thought that all he did was star in Alicia Keys videos. Looks good on his ass.
i felt like i was being pickpocketed while watching panic at the whatever perform...
GWB only likes the color green.
The Thought Police are ever at the ready.
Yeeesssss, must have Soma.
Love Mos Def! He could put all those shit-heads that call themselves 'artists' to shame! He is real hip-hop/rap; not Puff-Shitty and 50Cent!

Amen to that. I LOVE Mos Def. Outkast, Common, The Roots and Mos Def are hip hop to me.
Diddy, Fiddy and Enema are not rappers in my book; someone needs to lock their talentless monosyllabic asses up!
Are you all prepared for the cable news orgy that is 9/11? I swear to God I am unplugging every media source in my house and staying in bed
I love the real old dirty backpack groups ie Digable Planets, Tribe, Pharcyde, Black Sheep, etc
sad, i thought people were over 9/11, now we have the 5 yr. anniversary ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
9/11 is my bday.
I think that if someone wants to be heard they should follow the rules- but did U2 go to jail for playing on a rooftop?? NO. I doubt it was the song he was rapping about. He probably backed up traffic and got arrested. I don't think it was because he was Black or hating Bush. To me- this is acceptable if he went about it in the right way.
I'm not a fan of BUSH but I think it's rediculous to blame him for a fucking hurricane and the aftermath that ensued. There are MANY people to blame like government, FEMA, Red Cross, the mayor who loves chocolate people, etc. It's called red tape and when people are starving and dying- there should be nothing that gets in the way of aid. People have to understand that BUSH doesn't run this country- the idiots we vote into power do- yes Bush included to a point...he's a puppet.
Also- I love how people use racism whenever they feel a 3 year old temper coming on....it's not fair!! If it's real- use it. If not- Save it because playing that card is getting fucking OLD.
***hugging Mishma*** Don't worry babe, it'll be over soon. When is cameltoe leaving?
CNN Pipeline is replaying the 9/11 coverage from 2001 all day, and it's free to everyone for the whole day. they're so thoughtful. sick.
Love Mos Def! He could put all those shit-heads that call themselves 'artists' to shame! He is real hip-hop/rap; not Puff-Shitty and 50Cent!

I couldn't word it better.
Thank you Lobotomy eyes!!!!!!!!!
Can I get a witness!
panic at the disco are so bad that they make me angry.
You better back of JT MK or I'll come give you a wedgie...
**handing Astral Soma***
Astral | 09.01.06 - 12:58 pm | #
Tribe and Pharcyde were friggin' amazing! Happy memories.....
She never leaves Miz...NEVER
*crying and clinging to MizRo*
HAHAHA
Hi Lobotomy...xoxoxoxo
See you guys after lunch.
Google ceo and time warner
Not to sound crass but can we let go of 9/11 now? Please?
Oh, shit! I read that as "Mos Def gets KNOCKED up!"
Need. More. Coffee.
One of the best concerts ever was the Roots in Washington D.C...about 5 years ago. That was a good night. Smoked some good stuff.
Hey Mishma!
I feel you on the boss thing...mine is on the prowl today and lopping off heads as he goes. Ugh.
Halllujah for the 3 day weekend!!
I LOVED him in Hitchhiker's Guide!!
You zarkin' frood!
9/11 is a tragedy. Re-living it is painful enough. I can remember without the constant reminders.
What the fuck? I love Mos Def. Real hip hop is rare. Astral and Scorpio I love everyone you named. Those groups made me proud to be a hip hop fan. These days...a GOOD hip hop song is hard to find.
Actually what am I saying. Hip Hop hardly even exists...all we have now is rap. Arresting him for making (and performing) a song that is actually about something is dumb as shit. I remember when all of them were about something, even it was to show lyrical prowess by stringing a bunch of ideas together, telling a story, battling or just having fun. It was art. I miss it.
Katrina Clap sounds like a VD.
I will admit I haven't heard Mos. I do like the Pharcyde, Outkast, and Gnarls tho.
I am a punk girl at heart but I love me some Eric B and Rakim. They still reign supreme in the rap/hip hop game.
~ohmy~ I didn't see old JT last night. I'll have to watch it when I get home tonight. Amen for TiVo!!
well you know what they say.. george bush doesn't care about black people.. or rather the kingdom of george bush represses criticism of his administration to the -enth.. dante's just damned lucky dick cheney and his shoot first ask questions later mental aptitude weren't there..

Never a truer word said sweetie. Me too.
Yes Lobotomy, THANK GOD. Currently the VP is threatening to beat down someone in an open door meeting. It's times like these that make my job so worthwhile
No shit MK. Justin Timberlame should have been arrested for that shitty performances last night. And quit it with the falsetto, asshole!!
I'm just looking forward to the following:
Today was pay day-
Sushi for lunch with the old man-
Rib Cook Off tonight in my hometown- we got free $80 tix to eat and drink all we want for zero dollars... I will be fat and happy tonight!- and
my sons football game tomorrow morning and three days off to do absolutely nothing...
Days like these I can ignore Genghis Kahn and be happy!!
Are people still talking about this idiot? He broke the law and spent the night in jail. Case closed.
And quit it with the falsetto, asshole!!

His voice will get deeper when he reaches puberty.
He needs to go back to his street alley behind the pawn shop and babysit his bottle of Thunderbird.
I love Mos Def but is one weird MOFO. Fo sure. his voice is *totally* annoying.
mishma seriously do you work on the set of Days of Our Lives? Your office has more Drama than "The Office". And that's not good.
mos def was wronged.
Ah the office! It premiers later this month. Can't wait. I love Dwight!!!!!!!!!
Another rapper is incarcerated? I'm in shock.
WAIT!! You mean a rapper had some trouble in public at a MTV event??
Didnt MTV pay him for that?
Good. Fuck Him. More like the Mos Def clap.
tender cavity
Tender, I take it you are a GWB gun totin' white boy !
Your comments are lame and Mos Def has been in more movies and has made some of the best music that has ever been presented. I'd say anyone who names themself after an asshole is well...an asshole.
He did nothing wrong and as a former resident of NY, people perform in the streets daily and never get arrested. I think they heard the content of his lyrics and saw the feedback from the citizens in the streets and got upset. These are the same cops who harrass Arabs,Blacks and any othee brown person they can get their bitch ass cop hands on.
So you can take your comments and well...shove them in your TENDER CAVITY
BTW...Panic at the Disco is the worst group ever...and soooo gay w/those Willy Wonka hats on.
Whats is Bush and the Federal Government to do.. declare that one place too ignorant to save itself, and force them to move out? How could he know they are that ignorant? Freedom to stay and die, after living in poverty with all the programs and money sent to them to help them recover over many years never seemed to work there?! Like everyone in the USA was doing, warning them round the clock on TV, newspapers, etc, with buses prepared to go? As if we haven't had hurricanes before? Other states did what was best for the population during the crisis and with respect to all their population! Other parts of Louisana had the sense to leave on time and with what ever was available to their aid? The city government was stupid.. and opted for waiting it out, hiding from their troubles., until the last minute they were confused and boggled by any emergancy but saving their own skins. Now they are seeing the sense getting rid of the troublemakers, old, poor and handicapped and getting better people to build, live and finance there! And this is a rant to New Orleans leaders and security, not the people who live there., for I lost relatives there., and know the truth.
What's with the name calling today?
Isn't tender Cavity allowed to express his opinion like you just did without the nasty backlash?
Or is he not allowed because you disagree?? Most poeple who want to perform in the streets and hold up traffic also get a permit- maybe Mr. Def did not because he thinks he's above it all?? I don't know- do you?? I hope that if it was a racist thing- it will be dealt with. If not-why jump the gun and claim race or 'hating on Bush' was the cause? I didn't see them arrest any of the entertainers during the ANTI BUSH concerts during the election on '04.
C'mon. Gimme facts not assumptions.
INJUSTICE!!!! *small, sad voice* I love Mos Def.
Why would you jail someone over such a shitty charge? U2 played the top of a building in New York during the pre-Joshua Tree days and all they had to do was pay a fine. That's bullshit, man.
OK, so I saw Lobotomy Eyes mentioned the U2 incident as well - sorry, I was so angry about Mos, I had to post without reading the other posts.
Not only that, but during a concert in AZ, Bono graffitti'd the Red Rocks. Was he arrested?? Nope, paid a fine. (don't get me wrong, I love me some U2, especially old school U2).
I love, love, LOVE Outkast. It makes me so sad that Andre and Big Boi are not getting along. And Lobotomy Eyes? Eric B and Rakim? RECOGNIZE!! 
I can't believe what I'm reading, Justin Timberlake was AMAZING. I felt like I was watching a superstar come into his own. In fact, I thought this was one of the best VMAs in years, it reminded me of how they used to be in the 80s. Guess I'm in the minority!
It will be a sad day in the black community when Bush leaves office and they no longer have anyone to balme for the last 60 years of their existence.
I looove mos def! The only artist I love more is Talib Kweli
so we have no freedom of speech in this country?....oh it was against the bush administration...never mind...
they arrested him cause of what he was saying, all our fukin tax dollars are going twards keeping people who shout out "AMERICA IS IN THE SHITTER! WORSE THEN MUTHA FUKIN IRAQ" on lock down.
Mos Def is awesome and I hope he gets a lotta press to get his message out.
Times like this, I wish I was Canadian!
hehe beers make me have funny thougts...
50cent-ameter weiner.
Justin was hot and I couldn't keep my eyes off of him. He needs to get rid of his bitch. 
It would be a waste of space to lock up the people associated with that show last night - they should just be lined up on the edge of a canyon and pushed off.
FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!!!!!! HE HAS A VALID POINT HE WAS PROTESTING AGAINST BUSH FAKE BEHIND
wtf? thats messed up. I love the president a lot. but there is such thing as freedom of speech and even the president would agree. Instead of watching the VMAs, celebrities going to parties and getting free shit, they need to think about whats going on in the country. Mos def was only trying to bring more important stuff to everyones attention.
Didn't watch the VMA.
What was wrong wth Panic At The Disco's performance?
So I watched half of it....
Justin's performance was ok. I was a little dissapointed. I expected more pizazz.
So being the old schooler- I was TOTALLY into the Raconteurs and Lou Reed. Bad ass shit.
Panic at the Disco's performance was just like their video... boring. Not bad tho- just the same.
I thought Jack Black's opening was HILARIOUS. Entertainment Cannon...BOOM! I laughed so damn hard. I still have a lot to watch tho. Hooray for Tivo!!
