    Surprised no Bruce. Also surprising Lil Nas X getting an album of the year nod

    Lil Nas X was a cross over artist, how could he not be on there?
    How could he be a crossover artist if no one knew what genre was his first? Also crossing over has nothing to do with Album of the Year. The ep wasn't even critically acclaimed

    So this record was in the country top 10 at first but then was not because it wasn't considered country, the song was then picked up by the R&B community and got heavy rotation so it is a "Cross over" considering country stations were playing this tune as well as R&B, pop and college.

    It got so  much press they went back and redid it with Billy ray Cyrus.

    An album that is played in the different genres of music makes it a perfect example of what an Album of the Year should be.

    The album has to be good or critically acclaimed to be in the best album category. Maybe the exception if it was a big seller. I understand why the song was nominated. You're probably confusing the song with the album.

    I always mix up the term Album and record...  Record is the single, and album is the whole album...


  • I loved Tyler the Creators performance.

    Billie Eilish's rendition of her song was fantastic.  Her and her brother are doing good things.

    Demi Lavato was good.

    Meek Mil killed it on his verse.

    Everything else was meh.

    BTS w Nas X and Nas showing up was fun but still meh...

    I was explaining to one of the kids that there are way more awards given out than what they televise.  I dont think rock or alternative was televised this year.   Loved seeing Billie Eilish get recognized for her talent.

    ugh the rap shit is awful in live performances.  cringe worthy in my opinion

    I was glad Billie Eilish just came out and sang. none of the bullshit with all the extra cap.

    Gary Clark Jr. was great.

    the music tribute at the end with Trombone Shorty was pretty good.

    the funniest part that I saw was Steven Tyler bringing the two girls up to dance...and they were brutal. had no rhythm whatsoever

    I missed Gary Clark...  Damn it.

    Not 1 mention of Neil Peart though.  Cmon.  You need to do better than that...

    I was having a conversation w some people w the lack of rock music being shown/promoted/produced in the Grammys.  I brought up how effing cool it would be if TOOL came on and performed for 13 minutes with their whole effects.

    It would have the crowd, even that crowd, going absolutely nuts.  Alicia Keys would have lost her shit, lol!

    And Yes, Billie and Phineas are an amazing duo as BOTH were recognized.

    Even The Weeknd got snubbed. And he was the heavy favorite to receive a ton of nominations

    Legit question - does the band have to submit for Grammy consideration? It's not like i'd imagine them trying hard to win an award they wrote off back in Vitalogy days. Easily could have received accolades - even if just a nomination - for Gigaton.

    I believe every album is eligible. And they were in the preliminary stages. Someone I know is a voter. They just didn't make it to the final nominations
