For those who haven’t heard, YouTube will put on its own music awards show on Nov. 3 in New York City. If you can’t make it out to the show, don’t worry because it’ll be streaming online at the same damn time. And earlier this week, the world saw the nominees for the awards and … uh … how is this different from every other music awards show?

It’s all the same people who are up for the statues (or whatever YouTube will give away), something two of our favorite artists noticed. Flying Lotus and Tyler, the Creator criticized the YouTube Music Awards—funny enough, the latter is performing at the show with Earl Sweatshirt—and made some great points about who should be winning these damn things.

Here’s what FlyLo had to say:

Seems like the YouTube music awards are pretty much the same as the VMAs. I don’t really see the point. — FLYLO FM (@flyinglotus) October 22, 2013

If it’s all about hits sure I get it but let’s be fair. YouTube award nominations clearly don’t care about cutting edge/innovation. — FLYLO FM (@flyinglotus) October 22, 2013

They had an opportunity to shine a light on all the artists that they helped to gain notoriety just to shit on them for uber famous acts — FLYLO FM (@flyinglotus) October 22, 2013

No disrespect to the nominees yadda yadda — FLYLO FM (@flyinglotus) October 22, 2013

Tyler’s thoughts were much more colorful, to say the least:

YOUTUBE AWARDS COULDVE FUCKING HAD NOMINATIONS ON COOL CREATIVE VIDEOS SHIT BUT NOOOO AGAIN ITS THE MOST TEENY BOPPER POP SHIT. YOU ARE BUTT — Tyler, The Creator (@fucktyler) October 23, 2013

WHY NOT GIVE AWARDS TO JUST DIRECTORS, THESE FUCKING WEAK ASS ARTIST DONT COME UP WITH THESE SHOTS OR SIT IN COLORING FUCK THEM THEY SUCK — Tyler, The Creator (@fucktyler) October 23, 2013
