The Grammys • Page 10

0/8 tonight for Jay-Z. Pretty crazy. Thought he'd at least get something.

 

I will shout it to the heavens

Lorde, SZA, and Kesha got done dirty

As much as it sucks with AOTY at least Kendrick got mad other awards

 

Jay went head to head with Kendrick in every category, yeah? He was never going to win those.

 

Kendrick should stop giving the Grammys their best performances if they’ll continuously snub him

 

Some random thoughts on tonight:

I like the Bruno album, but it literally would have been my last pick.

Also wasn't Jay set to perform? What happened?

Even Alessia Cara new her Best New Artist win was bullshit. That shoulda been all SZA.

Why were they being such pricks about letting Lorde play her own song, but gave Pink the stage to sing a crap song that wasn't nominated for anything?

Surprised Gambino didn't do Redbone, but hot damn was that a great performance of Terrified. I bet he made some new fans tonight. Gonna be monitoring how much his spotify streams go up this week haha.

The Weeknd won best Urban Contemporary Album over Gambino and SZA? God this just goes to show Grammy voters only vote for the most recognizable name.

Was there not a single Rock category televised this year?

 

Also the Bruno win for AOTY honestly isn't that surprising considering the two big contenders were Jay and Kendrick and they probably totally split the votes of all voters who are rap fans.

 

I don’t think Kendrick could ever get robbed worse than he did with TPAB.

 

Rock is not mainstream popular

 

them forgetting that women made music last year is worse than K Dot losing I think

 

tpain never loses

 

I mean neither is country or some lame ass Sting/Shaggy collaboration, yet we gave them both a spotlight.

 

Country is a billion times more popular in the mainstream than rock and roll

 

Wat? Are you kidding? Country is not only popular, it also outsells other genres in this current age.

 

Also sorry if it's already been mentioned, but that kid who sang with Gambino is playing young simba in the upcoming Lion King remake. Gambino is playing adult simba.

 

Oh yea you guys ready for Reputation to win next year

 

He said mainstream popular.....last time I checked when I turn on iHeartRadio or check the Billboard Hot 100, country is hardly on there. I'm well aware of country music's success, but I wouldn't call it mainstream.

 

You saying Revival's not gonna win?

 

He is the token PoC that the old white male grammy voters can tolerate, apparently. Helps that his message is pretty inoffensive to their ears/doesn't challenge their privilege I'd imagine

 

The Grammys are so fucking irrelevant it hurts. Retire bitch.

 

Also surprised/happy to see Portugal. The Man win best Pop Group Performance. All the years I've been listening to them I never expected them to ever win a Grammy.

 

....dude, country music is ridiculously mainstream.

 

It’s one of those most popular genres in the country. Just because country songs don’t grave a pop chart doesn’t mean it doesn’t have mainstream success.

 

i think the bruno album is much more important for music than people in general seem to think, even if it's below its AOTY competition. but yeah grammy's are fucked up what's new

 

How is an inoffensive throwback record important?
