No thread yet?

Not a lot of shocks. How would you like to be the artists nominated in the same category as The Beatles this year?

Spoiler alert: The Beatles won.
 
Can you imagine being Drake and watching the entire recording industry singing along to a diss track that accuses you of being a pedophile?



Dude should never show himself in public again.


Had to hurt him to watch a clearly sauced up Taylor Swift happily dancing to a song that has forced him into hiding.
 
For those wondering - regrettably, I will NOT be joining Kendrick Lamar on stage for the Super Bowl halftime show.
 
As for some of the performances.

Damn Sabrina Carpenter and that catchy ass little song of hers, but I loved her fully going with silly comedic bits in her performance.

The lip synching was ridiculous as usual.
 
I'm not going to bother ripping the Grammys, because what's the point, but my God, that "Beatles song" is terrible. TERRIBLE.

I thought her, Charli XCX and Doechii especially were the three acts that made an impression. Everything else was kind of sleepy.
 
The Grammys make me feel old.

As opposed to just about everything else in the world that just makes me feel tired.
 
The question is, will Kendrick play that song
at halftime? Man, it is vicious and I’m here for it.

Benson Boone was excellent, too, but Doechii stole the show.

Really, almost all the artists who were nominated for Best New Artist put on great performances (except the sleepy band with the weird name that played a song with like two chords … they were awful). The show went downhill after the newcomers were done performing.

1,000,000% he plays it in some form. Outside of the frivolous lawsuits he's gotten from Drake, there's been no industry pushback on him essentially napalming Drake. The fact that he swept the categories he was in suggests there's plenty of people glad to see it happen.
 
Kendrick is now my last bridge to youth culture unless Gen Z randomly gets into 2008 indie rock.
 
I saw it long enough to catch the woman with the dunce cap thing win something. Never heard of her but I thought her speech going after record companies for not supporting upcoming artists with health care etc. was a good one, rarely do artists bite the hand that feeds unless they are so big the record company works for them.

She had great comedic timing when she was a kid in "Girl Meets World." (So sue me. I'm a TGIF kid, so it was a guilty pleasure to watch the Boy reboot.)

On a different note, the likes of three-time winners Pink, the Roots, the Red Hot Chili Peppers and James Brown are now looking up to the newest member of the four-time winner club.

Jimmy Carter.

"The woman in the dunce cap" is Chappell Roan, who has made my Missouri hometown very, very proud over the last year. She stands up tall for the things she believes, and writes some damn good pop songs too.
