American Gansta was one of jay’s best albums!! the cd is hot!! From
beginning to end the cd is fire!! It’s up there with reasonabl doubt &
the blue print!! I hope jay wins! Don’t care for lil wayne at all. The best rapper
alive is Jay, Nas, was Biggie. Never ever lil wayne!!

READ THIS DAMN!!!

This year 2008 Alicia was already nominated in the r and b categories and she won 2 so for the 2009’s she cant be nominated again in those categories!!

I mean, other artists gotta have their chances too!!! Even if they are C list!

Beyoncé released her live performances from her tour in audio so surely me myself and I got its own right to be nominated! Did yall hear her at least?

#73 Also, 9 out 10 of Alicia’s Grammy’s are for a solo performance one thing, about AK is her music is not for just this time or just the sound that is hot now she or Jazzmine, Jennifer even Mary never really say well I am going with this sound. I remember when Alicia spoke about her cd AS I AM she said she was doing it for her and she said she may loose some fans because they may not understand what she is doing. She doesn’t have to bring in the top notch producers such as The Dream Ne-Yo and get them into to rooms to create something she and her musical partner create their own music.

@77 You act like Beyonce never been nominated yes others do need a chance of winning awards and that’s for people who have never taking home a grammy Alicia Keys has 11 and Beyonce has 10 so therefore if you’re saying Alicia Keys don’t need to win any grammy’s this year because she won last year I guess the same goes for Beyonce.

These are the people who I think should win and deserve to win Jasmine Sullivan, Rihanna, Alicia Keys, Ne-yo, Jennifer Hudson, Coldplay, Leona Lewis, Lil Wayne, Kiesha Cole, Katy Perry, Pink, and others.

Say what you want about Christina Aguilera but, that woman can sing! In my opinion she stole the show with her song and performance! It was absolutely amazing! She showed a depth of soul and technical expertice (breath control) that made me want to go out and buy her CD. She sounded soooo good. She sang a song from the play Porgy & Bess that rivalled the original. Shouts and respect to John M and BB King for doing the blues “correctly.” Also, another great performance.

I think whether win or lose I say congratulations to all the nominees I think it is an honor for them just to be nominated. Madonna only has five does that make her any less of an entertainer. Michael Jackson only has 13 and Whitney Houston has 6 however all three are musical Icons and can put most musicians today to shame based on record sales alone.

Hopefully the right people win Alicia, Jamine, Jennifer because they deserve it more than anybody.

I love Alicia, Jasmine, Jennifer and Pink these are some real talented sisters they better win or the grammy’s don’t know what they’re doing and I am serious right now they have to win they deserve everything.

@88 I agree I don’t know why people think that having a lot of awards makes you a better entertainer than anybody. It’s more important that people remember you more than how popular you are, how much money you have, or how many awards you have nobody really cares, but the media and other people who really don’t open their eyes.

@79

I was just writing back to the confused who were askin why alicia is not nominated in more categories, why me myself and i is nominated this year, why all those artists who didnt even dominate the year were nominated; thats why I wrote this, I have nothing against anybody, I guess you dont like Beyoncé but dont read too much between the lines, everybody else understood what I was explainin’.

@25 A. Keys, Rhianna and Chris Brown didn’t get nominated a lot even though they dominated the radios and clubs because their albums came out in 07. i don’t think Grammy counts re releases as the real release date…Yeah i would have loved to see my baby girl Rhi Rhi get more nominations but, it is what it is..
good luck to the people that truly deserve it not the fake ones

christinas performance was Amazing! I have even more admiration for her now! Mariah also sang beautifully, though I think Miss you most at christmas would have been a better song to sing. Either way those two ladies run the show vocally, with unmatched 5 and 4 octaves.

The grammys is almost a joke now, the types of people they allow to even get nominations is mind boggling! ie. kate perry.

They need to get the message across that the best singers, songwriters are awarded and POPULARITY should not be a major factor! There are many singers/songswriters who are yet to receieve awards even though they have been fantastic contributors to the industry. I reckon record execs pay the grammys to allow certain artists to win! Tut tut

Mariah wore that exact outfit 15 years ago in her All I Want for Christmas is You video….Same hairstyle as well. I’m amazed at someone who said Mariah looks like trailer trash, although she wore this exact outfit, hair and boots almost 15 years ago

101.

Woop... I hate haters, does that make me a hater..?

Thursday, December 4, 2008 /

Pleased for Jazmine Sullivan and Jhud. Definitely please for the British artistswho’ve taken the world by storm.Coldplay has to win album of the year. Dangermous should win producer of the year defo.

I was surprised at some of them though. Madonna + justin 4 minutes was a monster single around the world as was Disturbia and probably Take A Bow so was shocked they weren’t in song/record of the year cos I loved those songs and they were big in numerous countries ut w/ev

But i’m glad Duffy, Adele, Estelle and Leona and Radiohead have gotten nods. Pleased for Lupe Fiasco nd T.I, some of the best rap albums and I rarely listen to the stuff let alone buy an entire album.i’m surprised American Gangster’s there but not L.A.X

I love Jaszmin Sullivan, but I don’t like her stylist. Just because she’s a thick girl doesn’t mean she has to wear BIG clothes. She shouldn’t cross her legs when posing, it makes her look even bigger than what she really is. Please dress her accordingly.

OMG!! I am so happy for Jazmine Sullivan. I hope she wins them all. She totally deserves it. Go Jazmine!!!

Jazmine Sullivan will win 2 Grammy’s, but Jennifer Hudson will be the shocker with 3 wins and lose 2 (She will win best Female R&B album, Best R&B performance by a duo with vocals for I’m His Only Woman ft. Fantasia, and Best female R&B Vocal performance for Spotlight) *winks eye*

106.

LMAO

Thursday, December 4, 2008 /

The Grammy recognized the REAL! Go ‘head Ms. Jazzy!!! Everybody thought Rihanna would’ve gotten the most when the 2 she got wasn’t even for what was really hot. I know Alicia is tight right now. Lil Wayne will win best album/rapper or whatever but he doesn’t deserve it. He’s sooooo hot garbage. He was outshined by his collabo’s and production. I prefer AG (complete with production and lyrics) or Lupe’s. AG really deserves it - that album was tight as hell which is why they threw it in there. It ain’t about the sales - obviously (LAX).

Also, that’s NOT the same dress from Mariah’s x-mas video.

they always tryna dress jazmine up in some baggy ass shirt…or just baggy clothes period. Maybe she likes it that way, cuz she do look like a bit of a tom boy but damn the girl got a shape…her stylist should encourage her to show it off a little bit.

Everyone looks great! Side bar, I went to BB Kings’s restaurant over last week in Memphis,TN it was so nasty the drinks were watered down and the food was cold, BB you are a legend but you gotta get the restaurant together if you want more business

Jazmine deserves it REAL RAW TALENT in your face! She needs to win a few b/c thats something the music industry has lacked for some time now. A real singer!

I can’t wait to see Jennifer Hudson I hope she wins one as well she has been through so much God bless her! She’s true, raw talent as well. I love her.

Despite all the drama surrounding their personal lives Mariah and Usher’s albums were good and deserved to get nominated at least. The fact that Alicia wasn’t nominated in some of the more major categories is crazy. I got love for B, but I didn’t find anything about her live version of Me Myself and I that was so exceptional it should be nominated, Flaws and All live was better IMO. I’m feeling Jazmine so I hope she wins some. I”m sorry but JHuds cd was a hot mess and boring. The Grammy’s have become such a disappointment I doubt I’ll be watching.
