2017 Grammy Awards • Page 3

gotta wonder if uncle JT is bummed his troll song got zero recognition

 

Glad to see a few nominations for Bowie and Radiohead, but lets be real both of those albums deserved an Album of the Year nomination. Views?? get the fuck outa here.

 

There was no way Views was not getting an AOTY nom from the Committee. Is it really that much of a surprise?

 

Radiohead and Bowie showed up multiple times. That's pretty cool.

 

I like that All The Way Up has a nomination but I doubt it'll win

 

frank ocean had the correct approach to this bullshit institution.

 

Always appropriate

 

Is it fair that the chainsmokers are nominated for best new artist when the only thing they put out other than singles was an ep that was released after the cutoff date?

 

Honestly it's preferable to their usual "you've released like 97 things but we've never heard of you til now" policy in that category, imo.

 

Good luck to Adele and Tycho.

 

they released the banquet ep last year in the cutoff range

 

Do the Grammy Awards still have all those dead cool other categories like best "New Age" album, or best "Roots" album or whatever?

Used to find lots of cool stuff in there that i would have definitely missed.

 

Like when fun. won in 2013 lol

 

That they do.

 

There's some cool shit buried below the lines here, as always.

 

Listened to the William Bell album that's nominated in the Americana category today. Liked it a lot. Definitely one of those albums that flew under the radar for me this year.

kinda shocked Bowie wasn't up for Album of the Year or "Blackstar" for Record of the Year

 

Awards are tonight.

 

I love their weirdo collaborations every year. Gaga/Metallica and Alicia Keys/Maren Morris intrigue me.

 

Sturgill already won Best Country Album

 

Lori McKenna won Best Country Song, too. Good job in those categories, Grammys.

 

Some personal picks. Really don't care about the awards this year, but I'm still excited to watch the performances.
