@ Rihanna - That’s embarrassing.

Yeah I was shocked they played the music on Kanye when he was talking about his mother. It’s like have a little respect. I understand the time limit but come on.

LOL The Jay Z and Rihanna incident, I thought I was the only one the looked at that sideways. I found it kind of funny.

first bitches.

RiRi is looking cayute as usual. fcuk Jay and his retard bitch

Sad Sad..Poor Rihanna!

If I was Kanye, I would have acted a fool. Good thing he kept his composure…

That was pretty tacky of Jay. I would expect him to be bigger then that.

If you watch it in real time it wasn’t that awkward at all. She was trying to get him on stage and he shied away for a second. When they got on stage they were joking around and Jay kept coming to the mike “translating” for her jokingly. She jokingly pushed him back so she could finish thanking people. It looked like it was all in good fun and Beyonce was smiling the whole time.

Financial News coming from a Hip Hop perspective

I was very surprised when I saw that. I guess Jay didn’t wanna mess up with Beyonce and start anything.

Kanye West’s performance with Daft Punk was the best of the night!!!!

Did anyone else catch Solange’s side eye to Ri Ri when she pulled Jay Z up from his seat? Someone is going to get cut soon!

Jay would never disrespect Beyonce- Ri-Ri and her forehead need to clam down and no her place!!!!!!!!!

WTF was JAy Z problem. Anyway Rhianna looked beautiful as usual.

I was like Um Kanye… Okay….. I see where your going with this.. Let it out baby.

I must have missed that one. However, I don’t think they are together. Please Beyonce would shut that down. They made a nice song together that is all that counts. They should be happy, lets move on to real gossip.

Barack 08 all day!

**** Rihanna pulling Jay-z up made sense, but Jay-Z interupting every word in was, dumb on his part… BUT i was shocked by her given him the talk 2 da hand… that sh*t was funny.

****I wish Kanye would’ve wrote his speech before hand, he knew his ass was gunna win… he need a tip or two from Jamie Foxx ! ! !

i ACTUALLY thought the Grammy’s was good this year. Of course “Ye was my favorite performer, I cried like a baby when he did “Hey Mama”…so sad. I would have loved loved loved loved to have seen some “Flashing Lights” though, that would have been a great way to do it. That Rihanna thing is so over thought, I didn’t think it was that serious. I was a little disappointed by the Tina/Beyonce performance though, as old and great Tina is for what she does and still can do. I can tell for the first time last nite that she was a little stiff.

So what about the performances? lol. CL don’t waste no time. They get straight to the drama first.

ya’ll know ya’ll be making something out of nothing. i didn’t find the rihanna and jay-z moment awkward at all. i thought it was funny.

jay aint wanna go but she pulled him up there
that was sort of awkward because of the rumours
but i hought it was weird how he would acceptan awar with rihanna but not with beyonce
even thoughshe pulled him u there
and she was trying to hold his hand nd stuff
little slut lol jk

I for one tottaly forgot about the Grammy’s. If it had not been for J.Lewis(mylittle brother) bullentin last night,I still would have been in the dark. But I wish I had seen it.

I would have loved to see Rihanna and Jay-Z’s “”awkward” moment. To judge for myself how weird it may have been.

I did see the her performance on You Tube and Morris Day and The Time-saved her.

Beyonce and Tina were great. Kayne was really good.

Kelis and Nas well what can I say. That’s Bonnie and Clyde for real!

I don’t like Kanye again. He acts as if he is the only one that loss someone. I loss three people just last week! If their is a time limit then there is a time limit. He is so full of himself and the fact that his mom died softened him none. Ewww I hate arrogance

LOVE KELIS!!!!!!!

Damn I don’t know what kind of eye spy yall do but I didn’t get all that with the Riri and Jay Z. I didn’t read that far into that. I just seemed like a natural thing. Most of the time you want the person that helped you come and stage and he was in that Jigga swag playing the modest role like “naw this is your first so go ahead and get it”. Then he was helping her up the steps from behind so I didn’t catch the “I can’t hold your had moment”…lol

Nas and Kelis - **SMH**

Kanye is Kanye, his speech and his attitude did not surprise me at all. He did have the best performance of the night though. I can’t even hate. He always does things to have you talking the next day!

Alicia Keys did it big TWICE! Gotta love that!

I thought the Grammy show was pretty good. Everyones performance game was on pint…

Now on the Rhianna Jay z situation was awkward. Miss Jones had alot to say in ref to the incident on her show this morning and made so much sense. Im kind of in between on my thoughts. It looked like she pulled him and when he resisted she continued to puul him onto the stage. Maybe she was just in the moment and was too excited to think about her actions or she was trying to be messy. If it is innocent and they never did anything then it would be cool. But if they ever had anything on the low going on she was out of line and deserved to be slapped in the mouth until her mouht blisters and swells. She basically pulled Bey’s man away from her. Imagine that. Solange kinda looked like Bitch??? wtf???? you dont come pulion my brother n law from MY SISTER!

Nas and Kelis, step and fetch, sit down and shut the back door. Seriously you need to work on making a good album instead of trying to sell records through controversy.

In a time where we are trying to show that being black does not require you to be uneducated, unarticulate and careless you are putting that ish out there.

May God have mercy on your soul for real because you need JESUS.

Funny thing the only people who will be buying that ish are white kids in suburbia, these are the same one’s that I have to convince ever day that the reason that word is offensive is that people died to have that word erased from white lips.

People fought for over 400 hundred years to be seen as apart of the human race and they you go giving them what they want. They want you to reclaim your title. You are one stupid…I will not finish what I started.

But my love for your music is over you hankerchief wearing house negro. MLK and Malcom are rolling in their grave.

the one has spoken.. now NAS shut the uck up!

#6

I Totally agree. I didn’t see any akwardness. It seemed more like a proud Big Brother and Little Sister. No biggie to me.

loving kelis on that one

Jigger is that nigga

why they try to cut KELIS???

Is there a video of the Rihanna Jayz thing? on youtube or something? I wanna see it!

Yall Rhiana was so out of line trying to hold Jay-Z’s hand up them stairs…I was two seconds from jumping through the tv and snatching her neck back. I don’t care how secure him and B are-don’t be holdin’ no taken mans hand up no 5 stairs…heifer!

WACK??? I DON’T KNOW WHAT AWARDS SHOW YALL WERE WATCHING, BUT THIS WAS THE BEST AWARDS SHOW I HAVE EVER SEEN. LOVED THE DUETS, EVEN LIKED THE COUNTRY DUDE SINGING ABOUT TICKS…JAY Z AND RHI, RHI WERE CUTE, I MEAN SHE WAS ACTING HER AGED, GIGLING AND PULLING ON JAY LIKE HE’S HER BIG BRO..NOT AWARD AT ALL….

Kanye’s mom should be very proud watching her son from heaven. he has really matured.

PEOPLE, PEOPLE I THINK YOU ALL ARE READING TO MUCH INTO THE RIRI & JAY ISSUE. JUST AS DjBigDaddy STATED, IT WAS ALL IN GOOD FUN. JAY DID HESITATE TO ACCOMPANY RIRI TO THE STAGE AND SHE AND BEYONCE ENCOURAGED HIM TO GO UP THERE WITH HER. AS FAR AS THE ACCEPTANCE SPEECH, ANYONE CAN TELL THAT THEY WERE JOKING AROUND…THEY EVEN HUGGED EACH OTHER AS THEY WERE LEAVING THE STAGE. COME ONE PEOPLE, LET THE DRAMA GO.

Its So funny cuz me and my sister was on the phone last night when that whole Jay Z and Rihanna scene went down and I was like Oh boy I can see the headlines now for tomorrow lol. Anyhoo it was obviously akward because their are so many rumors about them already. and Rihanna being young and excited in the moment didnt even think about “how it would look”

I dont think it was rude for them to turn the music on for Kanye, I mean it was all fine and dandy for him to dedicate his moment to his mom, but before that he was talkin bout some other krazy shit.

As for Nas And Kelis: I guess

BOOM!!! That was the sound of Rihanna and Jay’s working relationship coming to an end lol. That was a silly move on her part. She knows Jay isn’t big on the Grammy’’s (*shoot everyone knows that), she knows he’s not into gossip and rumors. So what does she do? She makes a point to yank him onstage when it’s obvious he doesn’t want to go and him taking his hand back is evidence of that. True he’s on the song with her BUT he was sitting right in the front row, she could’ve easily thanked him from onstage and the camera could’ve paned down and got a shot of him. Great way for her to keep her face on the net and blogs though.

OH YEAH,,, THE SHOW WAS EXCELLENT. FROM THE RED CARPET TO THE PERFORMANCES. GREAT SHOW!!!

Woah whats the deal with Jay and Ri? Maybe they had a lil disagreement or something prior to the award show…who knows? Ya’ll know their PR will squash all speculation though…

I am soooooooo proud of Kanye…that is one of the reasons I love him. I would have done the exact same thing…’Ye doesn’t play those reindeer games with folks, he keeps it 100% all the time.

I don’t even know what to say about Nas and Kelis…but its not surprising that she will ride for Nas. Kelz has never been a shy or soft chick…

Okay big ups to Rihanna for smashing the competition last night with hair, make up, and dress!!!

The award was an awkward moment but she didn’t even think to look at Beyonce before snatching Jay up…LMAO @ that part…Solange looked like she wanted to dig in her ass more than Bey did…

Yeezy get ‘em…I laughed my ass off when he was talking to the music person….HILARIOUS

I don’t care how secure him and B are-don’t be holdin’ no taken mans hand up no 5 stairs…heifer!

————————————————————————————————

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, that was pretty much the only part of the show that I didn’t see. Dang it.

But, I don’t know; I mean, I think that Rihanna is just a little dopey girl. She probably was just excited and wanted to share the moment with her mentor.

I mean, if it wasn’t for Jay-Z, she would not be here right now. And would have never ever had the opportunity to win a Grammy.

So, I guess, it depends on the type of relationship that he and Beyonce have. If they are secure with theirs, then the little “awkward” moment shouldn’t be a big deal.

I meant TOTALLY,not tottaly-it’ early-so sue me.

BTW CL crew. Concrete Loop was just mentioned on The Russ Parr morning show,they were mentioning the Grammy’s and referred to the site. I did post a comment on Shaqwana’s profile.She’s one of the host. I had mention to her that it sounded as if they got alot of the “Hot of the Press” with Alfredas from CL and a few other sites.

Anyway thought I would let you know. That CL had a bit of advertisment.

NAS & KELIS - SMH

People will do anything for attention. That was the most inarticulate, incoherent, bullshit I ever heard in my life. The reporter was proboly saying in her head “oh this is a publicity stunt”. I think sometimes these artist spend so much time around other dumb bunnies in the music industry that they begin to believe they are actually intelligent. I love how the reporter didn’t even know who Kelis was…lol. They are really sad. Why didn’t she wear her nigger shirt to those gift lounges this week to take pics with her free stuff? I’m sure the sponsers wouldn’t have liked that. These artist are greedy, self absorbed, psuedo intellectials. The sad part is that some people are stupid enough to follow these fools. SMH

I was going to ignore them behind this foolishness, but this is getting even more and more entertaining. It’s like watching a baby throw a tantrum. Nas is STARVING for attention!

How about…..

Jay Z didn’t want to go up there and let her shine. He has been there and done that. He didnt assume he was going up there just because he was on the track, it was her tune. But because Rhianna is young impressionable girl she wanted him up there for support because she was nervous. No publicist no handlers no one around. Her speech whould how young she was to this thing. It is hard to have a mike and camera in yur face with the world watching. Rhianna is great on red carpets and in concert and structured interviews but the grammys to a girl of that age can be overwelming and a little intimidating.

Why the fuck does it have to be about beyonce and Jay Z and Rhianna in some type of love triangle.

You people (who choose to say nasty things) are so fucking small minded, expand your concept or scope of thinking.

I think they were just cutting up… I’m sure they laughed about the entire thing. I thought Jay and Rihanna were quite funny w/ the walk up and speech. I bet it was all staged to increase chat, b/c that increases SALES!!!

Kanye is arrogant and pompus. I will never support his work, no matter how good. After his mother died, I thought it would humble him a little. Wrong. He took that jab at Common and then to Amy, and tried to use his mother’s death to carry his speech on. C’mon he performed for 10 minutes. Good performance, but too long.. his time was up.

Nas’ attire sums up Kanye’s behavior.

[…] & Kelis sport controversial attire while walking the red carpet for the 50th Annual Grammy Awards Sunday night. Check out some of best […]

I TOTALLY I AGREE WITH YOU NOVA. WE NEED TO STOP TAKING SOMETHING SO SMALL AND MAKING A HUGE DEAL OUT OF IT. LET’S ALL TRY AND GET A LIFE….LOL.

what’s up with that (ri and jay-z) ordeal?

No comment on the other two.

There was no Jay-Z-Rhianna incident!..Jay was just letting her shine…Her song,her award. Jay really doesn’t do the Grammys(if you remember they boycotted the awards for a few years because of the lack of recognition rap music was getting)….
STOP THE DRAMA(OR MAKING UP DRAMA) AND -GET OFF THE BOO BOO

I actually meant to say that jay z wanted to let Rhianna go up there herself and get all the shine (it may have come across wrong in my post) but she dragged him up there as a crutch, she was extremely nervous

people are readin into that rihanna and jayz situation too much. here is wat i get from it, after the hug, rihrih held his hand to come up wid her cause he was his woman, they were approachin the stairs so he was like ladies first. she went up the steps, and went to the mic and he allowed her to speak. and they hugged at the end.

people today have so many insecurities, there is nuffin goin on wid jayz and rihanna, it is pure clean fun they were havin on stage. he is her mentor, young artists have mentors, like when tommy motorola mentored mariah, clive mentors whitney, alicia, jennifer hud and leona lewis.

solange, always want attention from the time she got pregnant at 17, her father still has not laid his eye on her yet.

I didn’t think there was anything awkward about Rhianna pulling Jay-Z up on stage. For once, I think you guys are just looking too much into it. It seemed very much like a big brother/little sister relationship to me, and I even commented on that to my roommate as soon as it occurred. She threw her hands up because she wanted him to accompany her on stage and he was trying to hang back, but it was obvious from the way they joked around on stage and as they were leaving that there was no ill will. And I’m not a stan of either Rhianna or Beyonce, so this is about as unbiased of an opinion as you’re going to get.

@#40 POBOI…
How many ppl took jabs at Kanye that night??? Damn near every presenter and award receiver…What most ppl confuse as being pompus is just Ye demanding his respect. Nobody else got the music played over their speeches….It took Amy Winehouse 5 minutes just to get to the mic…. That was a shot to hip hop and showed the lack of respect that the academy has for the art that is…
Remember if respect isnt given it has to be taken

@NOVA,

EXACTLY. RIHANNA IS 19 AND SHE WAS ACTIN HER AGE, SHE WAS REALLY EXCITED CAUSE SHE GETS HER FIRST GRAMMY AND SHE LOVED THE TRACK.

yes, people want to make it into a love triangle, it was fun on rihrih’s part, cause she lost all the other categories and rap/sung was her only option to get the grammy. and she was excited because of that, and the others in the categories could not have beaten umbrella. i surprised amy won record of the year.

It was kind of awkward in my opinion. I just think Rihanna was hella nervous though. Plus she spoke on the rumors, yet again in COSMO, as stated in the article above. No one was saying they were together, just the moment altogether was a little bit weird.

I wish someone would link the video of it.

Damn J was just trying t let her have her moment and rihanna was just nervous, CL don’t make something of nothing

the music was playing on kanye before he even started talkin bout his mom…….and the reason jay is awkward around RIRI is becaus he is attracted to her even if he aint actin on it and he doesnt want it to show

She know it’s probably the last time that she will be anywhere, accepting anything with Jay. I am with the others. With all the controversy surrounding the rumors, why would she try to grab Jay’s hand with his woman right there. That is a true way for her to funk around & get a true beat down at an after party. I would bet money that Jay probably hit that at least 3 times. She has a teenage body so it probably didn’t take long for him to be done wit it. When you have a woman with ass, hips and thighs, it’s hard to go back to high school. She still has to know that you don’t hold his hands with 60 million people watching..

I cried when Kanye song his Mama ng.

Ill give her the benefit of the doubt and assume she was just trying to bring him on stage to accept an award. But if she was trying to hold his hand in a more sinister nature. Then shame on her for being such a classless skank. Why must she be so tacky. He is not your man.

PS: Its been long overdue for Solange to deliver Rihanna a good ole southern A** whoopin. We all know Solange is not the Knowles to play with.

lol i like how u guys spruced it to say it was akwrad it was meerly a congrats u won get up there thing, i dont believe thy were suppose to be lovey doveyt pn stage i mean hes her mentor they arent gonna go up there hand in hand crying singing kumbuya….. its all fun a dn games… u can tell by rihannas reactions man she was just estactic and happy im so prouyd of her

The Rihanna / Jay-Z thing is an old rumor and all I saw were 2 people who work with each other joking around. I guess most people just see what they want to see. Kanye’s performance was increbile! The show was great and I’m happy for all the winners

she did mazing.. and the grammys were long but i really enjoye them. so many different . like old and new legends hit the stage and just had everyone aw struck like the gospel medley thing was off the chain, i mean.. fergie and john legend just matych ups that u wouldbnt even believe

I saw the whole “Rihanna/Jay-Z” incident and I don’t know what the big deal was. It was an awkward moment made that way by Jay-Z in my opinion. Ri-Ri was excited.
I mean surely Beyonce is not jealous of Rihanna after all, she’s Beyonce”?!?!?

LOL, I didn’t watch it, and I’m glad I’m kind of didn’t.But I seen the pictures you all posted with Rih Rih and Morris Day (lol, I don’t know he makes me laugh).I would thought this post will be floored with people jumping how much they loved it and how muched it suck.I guess not lmao.I won’t speak to soon though, it’s coming!To the Rih Rih moment, I think she could of been nervous, but how when she been on stage so many times???I don’t know.

Nas though…I wish he would stop this madness now.

When talentless hacks like Rhianna can win grammys, that lets you know that that trophy don’t mean shit.

I didn’t look at the show last night, because i knew that the perfomances worth seeing would be on youtube the next day. Kanye as usual was great (i hope he brings the glow in the dark tour to my city), Tina Turner demonstrated what a real performer/legend is..but other that….

The Grammys ain’t nothing but a trumped up Billboard music awards now, anybody with the right the connections can get one.

Some of you people need to learn how to read. CL didn’t say they were dating. They just stated that is was an awkward ass moment. It really was. Jay-Z’s reaction was weird as fuck. I thought I was the only one who spotted that ish. Plus Solange did have a crazy look on her face! LMAO!

As for my boy Kanye. I love him, but he knows there is a time limit for speeches. Why does he have to act an ass all the time?!

Nas and Kelis - that’s true love right there. HAHAH!

Kanye demands respect, I was really impressed when they actually cut the music off.

Rihanna and Jay-Z sleeping together, thats all…

It’s all about RESPECT, and Little Miss No Talent is going to learn, the hard way I see…..

I was definately not feeling Kanye’s speech at all. Your mom just died and yeah you should be focused on your mom. Say some words about her and say thank yous to whoever you want to thank and be done with it. The part I had a problem with was the whole Common comment. He is sooo arrogant. You won an award and that is the time to thank those who helped you along that journey. Kanye acts like he does nto have anyone to thank cause he did this all himself. Believe someone helped you out along the way whether you believe it is GOd or some other person who is important to your life. I think receviing an award should be a time of gratitude but Kanye is never humble by anything and I think with that kind of attitude something will happen in your life to humble you sooner or later.

It looked more like a big brother/little sister scenario between Jay-Z & Rihanna. No reason for Beyonce to be concerned, and she probably wasn’t. It was good to see the playful side of Jay-Z. People blow things out of proportion all the time.

they aint sleeping together
ppl always gotta twist shit
him and b have a good relationsip
i mean almost ever movie in beyonce has a kissing scene
so they must be secure in their relationship
damn ppl always gotta twist shit
they been going like 6 yrs strong
ppl like yall (hater nay sayers) that ruin ppls relationship

JJay and Ri was real cute last night, I believe that we are reading a little to much into this, i truly thought it was special

@ #6

Thanks for the clarification! I was like WTF!!!

Beyonce stans, do you honestly believe that Joe Camel doesnt cheat on Beyonce ” miss gooody two shoes ” Knowles?? Like really??
I am not saying there is any truth to the Ri Ri rumors, hell who knows, but please, Jay Z is probably clever enough to pick a discreet chick to be his bit on the side! He probably thinks, damn if Tina Knowles can forgive Papa Knowles, his hooker and coke shame, than Beyonce can forgive my ass too, as long as I continue to give her some street cred!

kelis for putting her 2 cents in at the end!!
lol

*love kelis for putting her 2cent in at the end….and rihanna should know her place!

I was watching the boring awards around the time when Kanye went up to accept his award. I think they started the music because he was trying to to make a saracastic remark about him and 50 release date thing. As
soon as he was like” you know maybe you shouldn’t try and drop and
album the same year as me” thats when the started with the music. The
did the right thing to. I’m like Kanye GROW UP, there is a time and
place for everything. Geesh, lol but for real he is sooo ugh Kanye.
He makes good music though I’m not a hater.

Rihanna needs top cool it down a bit. I think she feels that because the spot light is on her she can do what she wants. She needs to carm down a bit.

I love Kanye man and i am happy that he done what he done and his mother is very proud of him.

Nas and Kelis well i dont really have nothing to say

Oh please. I wish you all would chill out. We all know Jay is shy so of course he is going to resist going on stage with Rhianna. Beyonce never tried to pull him on stage so why would he go with her? C’mon.

Nas and Kelis are the epitome of attention whores. Exploiting the “N” word for attention - there is no excuse for that.They disgust me.

I’m sick of people riding Kanye’s ass. He was being the arrogant butthole that he always is. The music started before he even started talking about his mother….he even addressed it with is normal smart remarks. Then once he started talking about his mom, they music stopped.
