Grammys - Official Thread (1 Viewer)

I haven't been following the music industry that closely. Yes, that Jon Baptiste from the Late Show won best Album. And Bruno Mars is in a new group, and won song of the year. Both are very talented, throwbacks to gospel and R&B.  A lot of good music was created during the pandemic.

 
Oh, this show. To celebrate the never-ending slew of crappy new pop artists using auto tune that can't rap or sing or do anything.

Haha, so true, but I will say that Olivia Rodridgo has a helluva voice.  Her songs have been playing a lot at work lately, and all of them sound good. They even rock a little at times. 


Driver's License is good.  The bridge is actually brilliant, imo.  And I HATE...well, pretty much everything.

ETA: It drives me nuts that she sang "shuburbs".

Trevor Noah with BTS made me want to blanch. Just can barely watch this thing. 

I guess Zelensky and his introduction was pretty cool. I normally would argue that we should keep political stuff out of the televised awards ceremonies, but this seems a little different than the ordinary politicking.

Some backlash online after Louis CK won a Grammy for his “Sincerely” comedy album. 

Thoughts?

Honestly, if you just look at the work and not the person, it’s a very funny album and deserving of a Grammy, imo.

 
Who was that? Great performance, ala dr Seuss meets James brown.


Jon Baptiste killed it. 


that was the performance I mentioned. I watched the official video for the song and it seems like they essentially recreated the video for the live performance.

as a music guy, I'm :bag:   for having no idea who that was or never hearing that song. I didn't really listen to the lyrics- and I assume with the title "freedom", there was some depth to it more than just "when I do this- [jazz hands]... it's freedom!". either way- fun song, and really fun performance of it. tbh- it reminded me in lots of (good) ways of "Happy".

When viewing the FFA on mobile, is there a way to tell a link is a YouTube video instead of a regular old website article link? You can’t really hover over with a mouse like on desktop.

With all due respect to Mr. Floppo, it’s a little annoying when a YouTube video pops up that was unexpected. It’s like a rickroll.  :lol:

I was relaying how I felt about Louis CK.

I say we kill him.

I say we hang him. THEN we kill him.

I say we stab him. Then we tattoo him. Then we hang him. THEN we kill him.

Because apparently the few years he's spent in punishment on the outside of his industry for his (real) transgressions aren't enough for some.

I don't think there's a way to distinguish links. Sorry.

If you long press on the link it should pop up a box showing where it's going and it'll have a bunch of options for you.

"I say we let him goooo"

 
This Beyoncé worshipping is getting old.
Her status as a legend is without question, but I remember reading in numerous spots how many considered Renaissance a disappointment, yet it was the best electronic/dance album of the year? I am guessing they weren't going to not give her the record this year, especially with her appearing and about to embark on a big stadium tour, so there you have it.

It was far and away the favorite album on end of year lists on Metacritic. I don’t think many called it a disappointment — I’m not a huge Beyoncé fan, but I think it was her strongest top to bottom album to date.

Well, I have zero regard for what critics think in general, so I don't put any stock in that; I just know what I read in various corners of the internet. I haven't heard it, as I am not a fan (not a hater either, she just isn't an artist I seek out, as that genre is generally not my thing), so I am not passing judgment per se. If you dig it, rock on. :cool:
 
Seeing all the geriatric rappers come out is pretty great. Smart call only letting then go for about 30 seconds each.
Funny how the crowd went silent when mumble rapper Lil Baby performed. All energy was sucked out of the room.
I didn’t know who that was but I know who you are talking about just from the description. Even my white *** was like…dude you are out of your league.
 
Just need a PR man good enough and for everybody to have laughed at that abusing women part because Eminem turned it into a joke a long time ago...
