I'm glad that Kendrick Lamar got alot of nominations. And its kinda cool to see Tamar with about 3 or 4 ( for some reason I wasn't expecting it) ..But Jayz being the most nominated? Really? He didn't seem to make much noise this yr. His project came and went like Kanye's. Robin Thicke , look like its a good chance he will be walkin away with trophies thanks to Blurred Lines but :umm: at Fantasia having sum random nominations .. seem like she always just get thrown in r&b categories as a filler. Lucky for her.

Pretty much what I expected. I won't be surprised if Lorde takes ROTY, but I am surprised she's not up for BNA. And of course it's a joke that James Blake and Ed Sheeran are. Welcome to two years ago. :sigh: And I guess 'Roar' biting off 'Brave' oddly paid off for Sara in the end. I don't think she'd be up there if it weren't for exposure gained from the controversy.

Some idiot the other day tried to tell me that 'Blurred Lines' is the song made famous by Miley Cyrus because, "nobody would've touched it if it weren't for her VMA performance." :umm:

I knew Daft Punk's "RAM" was going to get AOTY nomination from the first time I heard the album. It's my favorite album this year.

Also, JT getting snubbed in all major categories. Wow.

And I really think Katy getting nominated for "Roar" may be a dark horse in where it's nominated. But Lorde might snatch her chance of getting a grammy.

Janelle Monae was snubbed for "Electric Lady"..one of my favorite albums this year.

And shadeeeeeeeeeeee for "Brave" and "Roar" being nominated in Pop Solo. :lmao:

And The King of New York and Los Angeles will walk away with several grammies! B)

                I thought Tamar was gonna win in her categories..and of course I completely overlooked the power of "Get Lucky" in Best/Pop Duo or group. And Kendrick not winning a damn thing(especially Best Rap Album) is a travesty.

I'm surprised he did but I loved it! They know his album sucks...especially the 2nd half. And to believe there were talks of him possibly being nominated for album of the year :lol:

He had the biggest snubs. But he still garnered 7 nominations. If he would have been nominated for the big three he would have been the most nominated of the night. I'll be surprised if he gets a couple of grammys because the competition is stiffT.

I'm still bothered by RN not being a big Grammy night for her. This bitch had the BIGGEST pop album of the year..massive singles, broke records.. singles that catered to ever existing audience on the planet!! What.More.Could.You.Ask.For.From.An.Artist?? But all she gets is BEST VIDEO??? Really? It's funny how she was doin a clean sweep at all the other award shows but the Grammys wanted to treat her like she's some second class Jackson,as if Michael's lil sister isn't worthy of winning a Grammy for great material that exceeds those,of her peers. I will FOREVER say FUCK THE GRAMMY'S for that bullshit they pulled,alone.

Nobody could understand it. At least she wasn't treated like Mariah. The Grammy's couldn't and still don't stand her ass.
