swear to allah if fuck you doesn't win song of the year
INJUSTICE

lol recovery

Eminem circa 2000:

"You think I give a damn about a Grammy?
Half of you critics can't even stomach me, let alone stand me
'But Slim, what if you win, wouldn't it be weird?'
Why? So you guys could just lie to get me here?
So you can, sit me here next to Britney Spears?"

lol Ozzy for best hard rock performance !!!!

Digging: The National - Trouble Will Find Me

oho, siqq burn sir @leto

looks like Janelle Monae should win

that's good

It's a shame How I Got Over won't win best rap album. Uhhkris is right too. Fuck You better win.

the grammys are a fucking joke
did kanye release his album too late or something? you'd think he'd at least get a nomination

Esperanza Spalding ♥

They accidentally put Recovery instead of MBDTF

They probably didn't want Kanye there after last year.

Very possible

soundgarden is back together?

unfortunately
yep

Kanye and MCR didn't qualify this year

individual tracks might have qualified (See: Death Of Autotune and Run This Town were nominated last year).

("Power" is up there this year)

1. Arcade Fire
2. Cee Lo obv. Best song ever made.
3. Florence & The Machine or Mumford & Sons idk.
4. Cee Lo
5. Paramoar
6. “Imagine” — Herbie Hancock, Pink, India.Arie, Seal, Konono No. 1, Jeff Beck & Oumou Sangare
7. Lady Gaga-Dance In The Dark. Luv dat song

I really hope Arcade Fire and Black Keys get some awards though...might help they grammys reputation a little.

Digging: Daft Punk - Random Access Memories

The Suburbs/Fuck You for best album/song

I do say good chaps, there is an indecent lack of artists from the indie genre!!! I suggest we all be good gentlemen and rectify this terrible injustice by voicing our contempt in letters addressed to the head of the Grammy organization. This most heinous of prejudices will not stand any longer!

well, i think we can agree that "best" artist this or "best" artist that, is whatever piece of crap artist they can market to the mass media and rake in the most money with. can't wait for Sputnik music awards!

Empire State of Mind is a pretty good song, better with steven colbert

LOLZ at Katy's Album of Year nomination

lol Ozzy for best hard rock performance !!!!

Why do the Grammys go by sales and not quality?

No care about the rest. Seriously fuck these awards.

AiC rapes ass, hope they win that one.

And the metal nominees all suck. wtf, there was so much good metal this year.

...so ya Kanye? Or does he not qualify?

BEST METAL PERFORMANCE
"SUDDEN DEATH" - Megadeth

Best Music Video
3. STYLO
OR 5. BAD ROMANCE

there's nothing special about bad romance for best video.

bad romance is easily the best video of the last 5 years, or was until Stylo came out. They are both extremely good music videos.

it's just her and a bunch of dancers. her eyes bugging out and her in weird outfits. the most creative part is the end when she's laying on the bed. that's just my opinion though. it's like how everyone got all over hyped on beyonce's single ladies.

Beyonce and Lady GaGa will be hyped even when their efforts suck

bad romance video is a f*CKING TRIUMPH

telephone and alejandro videos are both abominations unto man.

i forgot about bruce mafauckn willis in the stylo vid

Here's to naively hoping Mumford and Sons win best new artist!

yea well even if that's so there are tons of other artists that deserve to be recognized and awarded way more than half of these nominations but it's all about popularity and not talent with these things.

the grammys are the biggest joke of all time.

"Best New Artist:
Justin Bieber"

i mean who can take this shit seriously anymore, i doubt biebs even thinks this is legitimate.

whatever guys stop bitching nobody thought they'd get it righ after a decade of getting it wrong.

just sit back and enjoy how sufjan-free this list is.

The asshole judges never fail to disappoint. If Iron Maiden and Alice in Chains don't win for best metal/rock, it'll just be a testament to how big of a joke this whole thing really is, yet again.

Digging: Deafheaven - Sunbather

everyone who you don't want to win will win.

Serious lack of kanye

i doubt biebs even thinks this is legitimate.

lol

I would kill to see kanye pull what he did on taylor swift to lady gaga. she'd probably attack him.

I love Kanye's West ego.

if he doesn't win he will punch out bieber.

Mumford and Sons best rock track? WHAT.

bad romance is easily the best video of the last 5 years, or was until Stylo came out. They are both extremely good music videos.

"metal"

Katie Perry... Best album of the year... what is this world coming to?

this is so dumb. kanye should win half of these and he isn't even nominated for most of them.

Digging: Deafheaven - Sunbather

Not suprised by the crappy labeling and options.

You think it's time we stopped getting butthurt over the Grammies?

could've been worse.

IMO: Katy Perry should not be on this list.

yea, I don't see best rack as category up there.

If the Suburbs wins AOTY, I will shit myself.

"IMO: Katy Perry should not be on this list."

IMO not a single one of these should

Justin Bieber
Drake
Florence & The Machine
Mumford & Sons
Esperanza Spalding

Mumford and Sons should win this, but we all know they'll pick Justin Bieber or Drake because they go by how many fucking stupid high schoolers love them versus actual musical talent.

To all the people saying that Kanye should've been nominated: The Grammys usually go by a September to September basis. I know it's fucking screwed up, but it's how the nominations get tallied so early in time for the ceremony in Feb. Do some research first or GTFO.

"Best Hard Rock Performance: “Let Me Hear You Scream” — Ozzy Osbourne"

Someone explain this bullshit!

At least Jeff Beck got nominations, here's hoping he wins along with Sudden Death for metal performance.

i was pretty bummed when aic didn't win last year, glad to see they're (strangely?) getting another shot

*feigned outrage*

Well, this sucks.

Digging: The Dillinger Escape Plan - One of Us Is the Killer

grammys blow as usual.

bomb the music industry

This shit is FUckin RedIK-LUS.

Katy perry? Really........ come on, for fucks sake. lol.
If The Suburbs and How I got Over win for albums ill be a lil happy.
Hopefully Kanye wins for Power.

I just relized this is a lost cause so my comment is useless

if katy perry wins AOTY will anyone riot?

Popular music is so shitty these days

grammys blow as usual.

I will shoot my tv like elvis

if katy perry wins AOTY will anyone riot?

GONNA RAGE SO HARD

( . )( . ) = AOTY

Didn't read; award has no more credibility anyway.

And I just don't get Eminem. He is overwhelmingly uninteresting.

Recovery was great. They should just give Eminem album of the year for robbing him of it years ago when they didn't give it to him for the Marshall Mathers LP.

The Grammys are a joke...I can think of tons of artists who deserve more acolades than most of whats listed...

anyone else think they should have a "best metal performance other than megadeth, slayer or iron maiden" category?

we are only rewarding bad music. therefore they will continue.

yeah...there's no imagination in the metal catagory...

Cool, I hate the Grammy's.

Anyone know why they're called a "Grammy"? Kind of makes it painfully obvious why they're old fashioned and behind the curve as fuck.

I think it is named after Jim Grammy, who made the best pasta this side of the Mississippi.

Pathetic nominations

I listened to Need You Now on Youtube and it was an easy 1/5. Just awful.

Digging: Daft Punk - Random Access Memories

it isn't that bad jesus christ dislodge your head

Good to see The Chemical Brothers getting nominated

No Underoath? Bullshit.

There I was thinking this year they would be nominated and might actually WIN...

they're huge but not mainstream huge.

I understand that, but they have had 2 nominations previously.

for real?

Yups.

One was for a music vid, not sure what the second one was for.

damn. did not know that.

Grammys mean shit. Gave Dixie Chicks record of the year instead of Gnarls Barkley What kind of shit is that.

A 'Grammy' was a nickname for a gramophone, hence the shape of the reward and such.

*remembers all the sputnik users saying he wasn't relevant anymore when he announced a new album*


So many stupid stupid people around here.

*waits for some idiot to tell me that leading the Grammy's in noms isn't relevant, but his own opinion is what defines relevancy*

looks like some mtv award nominees shit...

gnarles barkley fucking sucked if you were over the age of 14 when it came out.

goddamn why are people so surprised at the grammy nominations?

i am actually somewhat surprised about katy perry

but im obviously not surprised that they're bad

That's a very angry-looking black man in that flannel.


WAIT. Something's not right..

only one that surprised me really was arcade fire. didnt expect them to be nominated for aoty for the grammies

They're acknowledging the hipster faction. DON'T BUY IN.

It's stupid what they consider Hard Rock at the Grammy's. And as for the Metal genre, they just pick 5 classic metal bands that they've heard of. It's complete bullshit!

Someone thought Underoath would be nominated, lol.

so much wrong with this list

People need to understand that this is a popularity contest, not quality contest. I think most people know that and its the way it needs to be seen.

Guess what's back?

Back again

This old joke

it's wearing thin

"Best New Artist:
Justin Bieber"

lol

lol the grammys

yo i remember a couple years ago when the mars volta won a grammy shit was iiiiiiiiiiiiiillllllllllllllllllllllllll

Digging: Wu-Block - Wu-Block

This list is so fucking appalling.

needs not be said, but katy perry getting nominated for her music is kinda absurd.

california gurls is only the song of the century. duh.

They should have a separate category for Katy Perry called Boobs of the Year.

lol there are categories where there shouldn't be winners.

GO EMINEM! he deserves it. and where the fuck is kanye? this is fucked up. And to the dude who said em should have gotten the grammy for theMMLP i think he didnt becuz he said he didnt give fuck about it n shit. He still shoulda gotten it. it was only one of the best albums of all time.

katy perrys boobs are magnificent
