If Adele wins one and B wins the other, would people think that's fair? I'd say Album of the Year is more prestigious because you're being rewarded on the album as a whole rather than a single song. Honestly, I could see Beyoncé losing Record of the Year to Adele or Lukas Graham, because Formation just not that great at encapsulating the essence of Lemonade. I wouldn't be as pressed in that instance but Album of the Year should be Beyoncé's first, and if not, Adele's. Just my thoughts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care if Beyoncé or Adele win, but if this nobody Kentucky hillbilly bumpkin who has no worth in American society as a whole wins, I will flip my lid. Beyoncé is most deserving to win, but if she loses to him, it will just go to show how irrelevant American society treats Lemonade and how it will just continue the cycle of suppression of art with actual meaning beyond the music and lyrics itself Sorry but you're out of place, just because he's not famous and it's country .... .... Have you listened to the music? His lyrics, the importance the album has in the genre. Ofc album of the year is also about the importance the album has on society. Lemonade was a very important album, though it's beyond forgotten in people's minds "A Sailor's guide to earth" lacks great lyricism? What? I'd say more, the whole music is very lyrical and poetic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His album is great, even if country is not my thing. I got over Bowie not even getting a nomination in the category, with Drake and Bieber getting one, you guys could get over Bey not winning.  They say it's the last song. They don't know us, you see. It's only the last song if we let it be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killa 14,498 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 oh and more one thing, this is absolutely wrong the album is a visual album, but in fact that doens't help anyone, and it's just a new way to sell because sorry but or the visuals count or don't. The music can't be separated from the rest  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I'm overexaggerating cause I'm obviously pressed, but if this was 2008 I'd say I wouldn't be since we aren't in the current political and social climate we're in right now, but it's 2017 and Lemonade reflects the world that many of us live in and experience if you strip back the personal aspects that Beyoncé has infused into her album Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was guaranteed. I mean Lemonade was actually a film, The Beatles was more of a documentary ala Katy Perry Part of Me 3D This non-intentional shade  Don't you think maybe they are the same thing? Love and attention?
