I DEFINITELY agree with you about the Beyonce & T.I. things,you literally COULD NOT turn on the radio with out hearing that fuckin "live your life" song & SLU.
I kinda feel that ne-yo deserves the album of the year nomination though, his shit was maaadd underated.
T.I. didn't get nominated for a lot of awards this Grammy Awards ceremony because his album came out after September 30 (I believe) which is the cutoff date for someone to be nominated for the following year's ceremony so T.I. will get all his recognition in 2010 which he'll most likely be out of prison by then.
actually to be real, wayne should of had 10 nominations. he should of be been nominated for record of the year and song of year EASILY. i think he had the number #1 spot on the charts longer than anyone this year. but them people aint gonna let that happen
actually ti got 3 nominations. 1 for his album and 2 for collabos. swagga like us, wish you would with luda
WTF...WTF...WTF.....TI got robbed with out a fuckin gun...."Live Your Life" & "What Ever You Like" was/ and still being played constantly on the radio...TI was seriously robbed...If I hear "Live Your Life" one more time on the radio, I think i'm going to my local 2 stations and shoot brutha just off of gp.... That's fucked up wht dey did to ya boi....And i'm still rockin "The Recession" in the benz... I can't even put "The Carter 3" back in cause i'm so tired of that album...
Oh and uhhhhh...WTF..."Paper Plains" was nominated for record of the year...R U Fuckin serious...That song was only getting play for a lil minute...Like 2 weeks max....TI's shit has been rockin longer and still going strong...I don't even hear "Paper Plains" on the radio anymore...Plus you can't even understand the bitch...And she ends the song with "Summa, summa, summa, summ,summ,summa,summm" Nigga what, huh, the fuck r u saying!!!!! Grammy's aint shit no more....
on some real shit, i know a lot of ya'll bout to disagree because either you never gave the shit the time or you just a Wayne or TI dickrider, but........Lupe's The Cool was EASILY the best Rap album last year, EASY. American Gangster was second. Wayne's album was straight but it wasn't Grammy winning material and it was SO commercial.
1. Get off T.I.'s dick
2. Beyonce was nominated for her live rendition of the song "Me, Myself, and I" from her tour DVD. Deal with it. The Beyonce Machine is not as powerful as you think.
3. Sat down Gyant. As if your opinion matters...
Chasing Pavements and Spotlight... LUVS IT!!!
A big ass thumbs down for the old ass Beyonce song! They are dying to give that chick something, ERY YEAR!! WTF!
SMDH!
I don't understand how the hell Beyonce got nominated for Me, Myself, and I. I mean they could of left her out and pick an artist who was deserve that spot more than her. Beyonce fans kill me always trying to defend her.
Ashanti's "The Way That I Love You" should replace Beyonce's tired ass 2004 "Me, Myself, and I"...
I'm glad to see newcomers Jazmine and Janelle get some love though.
LIL WAYNE IS GONNA TAKE HOME 5 GRAMMY'S ......I SAY THAT CAUSE IT'S SIGNIFICANT TO THE 5 #1 HIT SINGLES HE HAD OFF OF THE CARTER 3....It was huge fuckin debate when the album came out, if it was a classic or not.. Being that he got nominated for 5 grammy's and had 5 #1 hit singles off the album, not to mention that it was a great piece of art, I THINK THE HIP-HOP WORLD REALLY NEEDS TO REVISIT THE ISSUE IF "THE CARTER 3" TRULY IS A CLASSIC OR NOT????????? I said no at first. But you know what, i listened to this album over the weekend after not listenting to it for 3 WHOLE MONTHS, cause i was just tired of it when it came out...But this will go down as a classic album..Mark my words..... You can listen to every damn track on the album.. I actually did not skip 1 single song. That's what you call classic...Tell me what ya'll think...And I'm just keepin it 100
****Nominated for 8 grammy's******* My Bad ya'll
