I'm not cynical enough not to be surprised at lack of a Grammy thread

Ye
Beck
Beyonce
Sam Smith

A little something for everyone.

It's almost like Kanye pissed off an entirely new subset of people by his dis-not-dis of Beck.

At least Waxidermy.com went deep on that geezer Dylan.

    all I heard is that Tenacious D won for best metal album, so now I'm waiting for the year Weird "Al" Yankovich wins every category and the Grammys embrace the joke they've always been.

    I'm sure Dylan cares deeply about what a bunch of cranky hipsters who don't shave say about him.

    b/w

    What's a Sam Smith? If it's the Oatmeal Stout I'm in.

    Didn't know they had already happened.

    But I was thinking this morning, they used to have a best packaging & best liner notes award.
    Do they still do that now that the CD is dead?

    Might be better to do Best Kickstarter Page or something like that.

    Ye is still sore that Wenger loaned him out to Villa Real.

    Industry blowhards chasing that paper, and their opinions, mean less than zero.

    Much more interested in what stutters ride for.
    And Dylan makes me hurl chunks.

    Chuck D was right then and right now:
    "Who gives a fuck about a goddamn Grammy anyway?"
    I liked that Beck album though. Xenu is proud.

    Grammys is all about Bithnith > Music.
    Basically, all that is wrong.

    I APPLAUD THE STRUT FOR NOT STOOPING TO THEIR LEVEL AND HAVING A GRAMMY THRAEAED.

    Ah... :post_modern:

    I was like why is Tom Petty here? Why are ELO (sorta) here? Then I read about this vool Sam Smith ripped them off and then I was like no way: the neighborhood elders made it right and put em on stage!
    So strange.

    They shot this bit a few blocks away from my house.

    Straight up Fake hype bullshit. I didn't go watch it. For the record these niggas is from Utah. They got the same management as the Killers so they moved to Vegas. They need to stop reppin my city sounding like a fake ass U2. Also their audience was paid as extras to be in the audience and cheer. They're a joke, and the Grammys are also a joke.

    I caught ten minutes of them while I ducked into a pizza joint for a quick slice. I didn't really pay attention though, because I cannot even recall what I watched.

    The most interesting thing about them, for me, was wrestling with my own confused feelings about Kanye. Is he a douche? A genius? Just an insecure cokehead? He makes great beats and he's rich and snagged Kim (varying tastes in women aside) , so he's gotta be doing something right. Right? I dunno. He's like an enigma to me.

    I think that in addition to the "remembering the members of the [industry group] who passed" video montage, they should start doing one called "and now for the ones who should have died already". Mick Jagger and the rest of the Rolling Stones would be on my list.
