For anyone interested, the BET S.O.S. Gulf Coast Benefit Concert...
... is on now, and it's better, and more intriguing, than that disappointing hour I just watched on the major networks.

Maybe it's just me, but I found it pretty underwhelming. Needed to be longer. Maybe MTV/VH1's three-hour effort next week will be better.

Richard Pryor and Queen Latifah are on now, defending Kanye West. Good stuff here.

1. I thought the other friggin rocked.
Really tremendous music I thought--yeah, it needed to be longer, but every performance was very, very good.

Plus, I saw Adrien Brody.

I did pop over to the BET show quick, what was Erykah Badu talking about? I thought she was saying Mosaic law, but she kept bring up that word which I guess she's meaning God? Mosa? Motai?

2. It's quite sad that Pryor and Latifah need to spend THIS TIME...q
defending the United States Constitution against the FReeperFacsists.

3. Did you see Latifah when they mentioned Rice coming up? Hard to
hide that disdain.

DAMN I wish I'd known about this earlier!

Doesn't look they'll be repeating it either.

4. Yup, I saw. I switched over for a while from NBC a few minutes
ago, and I was surprised to hear she'll be coming on. I switched back to NBC. I don't want to see her pretending to be black. Or pretending to give a shit.

6. Oh come on..... let's watch the RESPONSES to her! NBC is just
good ol' country boys, most of whom are Bush supporters anyway.
