Apples388 Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 You just name dropped the safest, most non challenging, Anglo veteran acts of today. Which proves my point. Madonna is no Bono or McCartney, which is why we are all fans of her. The Grammys don't make controversial choices. If I have to eat my words next year I'll gladly do if becuz at least I'll get to see Madonna on TV again (but she'll be on tour anyway), but I truly doubt it Wendy, O, foe Wendy, O, foe Damn!
Ai Papi Si. Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 they're just gonna give everything to taylor and maybe invent a new category to give one to bey Good, let Taylor sweep the show. I hope the Grammy curse eats her career alive
Mmmmm Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 Did Beck have a commercial song? He won and everyone thought Bey would win. So anything can happen but it's good we have less expectations.

Bain Bain Oliver Yew! Waiter Minnie lemming Tae Kwon doe Waiter Minnie Bain Bain bacon you harm??? Bain Bain see the macaw???

Yes that was a huge surprise, just his nomination alone was a very left field choice for the Grammys. But that's one example after decades and decades of the complete opposite. Who knows maybe they're trying to be a legit show now, but I won't hold my breath.
Jumpb4uthink Posted June 28, 2015 Author Posted June 28, 2015 Where Eminem' s win and nominations controversial?

His win was for similar reasons to Arcade Fire's win in 2011; a bunch of pop and r&b nominees cannibalizing each other's votes and making it easy for the rock voters to put their choice on top. Probably also how Toilet won AOTY in 2010, when Dave Matthews Band was the rock nominee and the other choices were Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, and the Black Eyed Peas, the rock voters protested the bro jam band (which lost in the rock album category to Springsteen) and joined with the country voters for Toilet.

Iconic Fetus Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 RH album, Ghosttown and BIM should be nominated.
Glindathegood Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 I respect your point of view but I think you're going a little too far with that statement, do Summer Olympics insult you as well? they have male and female competitions. However, having Gay categories in the Grammys could be pretty i-n-t-e-r-e-s-t-i-n-g to say the least That's totally different. Men are physically stronger than women because they have more muscles and different hormones and it wouldn't be fair to have women compete against men. There's nothing about music and singing that would make it unfair for women and men to compete against each other in the same category.
dollhouse Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 RH album, Ghosttown and BIM should be nominated. If LAP didn't got anything in 1989 how you think these would?

GOD Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 Anyway back to topic I find this interesting because just 2 nights ago I had a RH Grammys dream. I think I went to bed thinking how this album really deserves all it can get and how if she does win few big ones people would be curious to rush and hear the album. I dreamt I was among the crowd of people sitting at the show and they are announcing album of the year and when I opened some envelopes of people's votes most of them were Jay z, and then I myself was lobbying with some people like pharrell and Kanye ( I know wtf) to try and get the people to change their votes for Madonna. 😂😂
Jumpb4uthink Posted June 29, 2015 Author Posted June 29, 2015 If LAP didn't got anything in 1989 how you think these would?because Ray of Light, Music, and Confessions on a Dancefloor did.
lasky Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 It deserves to be nominated in all the eligible categories.... The only thing is interscope must do a proper plan...
lasky Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Btw... With all the fluffy pop acts, I think it's time for a major nominations bestowed to madonna when she was heavily overlooked in the 80s....
lasky Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 It would be huge news if madonna gets nominations.... If LG and Mariah Carey can get noms for album of the year... then anything is possible...
nemo64 Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Madonna doesn't make her records in the hope of getting Grammys, and there has never been any sense in how nominations and wins come about. I just see it as a bloated glorified get together of music industry people to promote their business and it has nothing to do with prestige or celebration of artistry. Having said that, it would be great if Madonna and Rebel Heart do get recognition through being nominated, and possibly even "win", just to gain visibility through this event for promo. Definitely not going to
Jumpb4uthink Posted June 29, 2015 Author Posted June 29, 2015 Like the academy awards, her label not only, have to submit nominations, they also have to campaign for consideration. It's political to build up buzz.
Bad Boy Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 They do have to campaign and it could even start now. Maybe her management can use how overlooked she was in the 80s vs what LAP has become in pop culture as a stepping stone to ignite the process of campaigning. BIM's current video popularity is also kind of unprecedented in the realm of veteran artists, no?

Arnian Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 She should, at minimum, be nominated in the pop categories I don't hold out much hope for the Grammys. It has been since MUSIC where she was nominated in a major category.
Iconic Fetus Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 Well it had better reviews than HC and MDNA so it might have a chance, VMA's should nominate her for BIM too.
