    Hey, I looked at BET this morning (rare), and I saw Eric Benet f. Roy
    Ayers. That was pretty cool to put Ayers on there like that, but Eric Benet
    looks like one of the dudes from the Tommy Hilfiger ads. (He prob'ly iz in
    them!)

    This is why I hate videos. How can it be that God only gives soulful music
    talent to people who look like models... Benet, Maxwell, Tyreece (sp?) TLC,
    Whitney, Mariah, Lauryn Hill...

    Yet, if you go to certain churches, you're just about bound to hear some fat
    ugly folks rockin' harder than ANYTHING you'll hear on the video channel.

    So what is UP? Other than Prince's singer Rosie Gaines, and other than a few
    gargantuan emcees, the search for video good looks has steady wiped out the
    music business!

    Bring back the REAL people!!!
