    Default Are the GRAMMYS Relevent???

    I find that the Grammys are so much about self hype and forcing todays mainstream artists to sing tributes to classic stars they can't live up to. The whole thing seems forced and canned. From the too eager announcers and the fake mosh pit of actors pretending to revel in the music no matter the genre or tempo. Just fake.

    Only relevant if your a major media executive, the favored artist of a media conglomerate.


    or the Shareholders.

    It means a lot to those in the music industry. I will say though this is the best year in many years because the award winners were people I feel truly deserved to win. Because those on the West Coast haven't seen it I will not say anything, but let's just say one of the winners impressed some people I know who aren't easily impressed. Plus hearing all the older acts was great because so many years they had what was hot instead of what holds up.

    ^^^^^^^^Here here! My favorite and an inspiring performance. Been rooting for those wins for some time now. Freakin' Chris wifebeater Brown though....that was political crap. He's NOT R&B, he's hip-hop or pop. They've bent over backward to get hard rappers on his work and dance remixers--that ain't R&B. Jus sayin'.

    Chris Brown should have gotten some jail time for what he did.

    Not crazy about him winning because of the abuse. I know that shouldn't be judged in terms of awards but I do. Otherwise liked the award winners and they finally got it right.

    I thought Adele looked very nice and classy. Actually, I was extremely impressed by her in every way. Amazing talent. My one pet peeve though was in the in memoriam neither Etta James nor Don Cornelius were mentioned. Yes they did a tribute to Etta James but still thought she should have been mentioned. Also, LL Cool J mentioned Don Cornelius but he should have been in the tribute. These are major people who changed culture.

    I find it fishy that celebrity deaths have been occurring around the time of award shows. Amy Winehouse, Michael Jackson, now Whitney? After all what else would the people on the red carpet be talking about? It's so convenient that WH died around the time of the Grammys. Now everyone has at least one thing to talk about.

    I dont pay attention to celebs, nor the grammys.. Never watched it and never will. It doesnt interest me. If I catch up on celeb media its because regular news decided to talk about. Celebs are over-hyped.. Most of them dont deserve the spot of where they are

    Aww, I wish I was still like you. Sometimes it sucks living with my TV obsessed BF in a small studio apartment with an oversized TV.
