It certainly is a breakthrough for our girl. While announcing the nominations for the 49th Annual Grammy Awards today, Mary was shocked to find out she was in the lead:
R&B vocalist Mary J. Blige led all nominees with eight nominations. Among her nods: record and song of the year (“Be Without You”) and R&B album (“The Breakthrough”).
“That’s a beautiful thing, that I’m still going,” Blige, 35, told The Associated Press. ” ‘The Breakthrough’ is about triumph, about not being a victim, but being a victor. It’s about loving yourself.”
Mary has been receiving nothing but love from the industry lately, I’m happy for her and her continuing success.
Amazing album, Go Mary! U deserve everything. Yes, I agree that she deserves these awards because nothing better came out this year. But that does not mean nothing else was not good! When u compare Mary to herself you understand the respect for this album; because honestly u cant compare her to anyone else. Shes in a league of her own. She can record whatever she wants and it will still sell, but she instead chooses to give it 110% all the time. Honestly, I saw Album of the Year, but the grammys you never know! Here is my prediction of Mary wins:
1. R&B Album on the Year
2. Pop Collaboration w/ U2
3. R&B Song of the Year
4. Female R&B Perfomance
5. Song of the Year (this one because the popularity,
quality, and vocal performance)
But we will see, you never know with the grammys! I must admit, Mary put out one of the best Albums this year, if not the best! If the grammys disappoint then this will show why the industry is where it is now. Remember, what happened to Mariah at the grammys, and Nas and the source awards. Lets just cross our fingers. You go Mary! One luv CL! -Nufsed
