If jay got one nomination y’all would still  be saying he bought it. Never change ggd

I feel like most assumed he’d get 3-4 nominations. I feel like people object to him sweeping nominations in the major three categories. :giggle:

Even then it’s not like the album/songs were nominated in random categories. He’s leading in the rap categories.

Where was all this outrage when Adele sweeps and gets nominated for every award each time she releases her usual ballad album? She “deserves” it right??? Hmmm I wonder why.... :reductive:

Despacito is a song for ROTY because of how popular it got. I have no problem with that nom. It's not a song for SOTY because the lyrics aren't good, with or without JB.

Why can't you separate one from the other? Just because they are married doesn't mean they are one musical entity. No one is saying anything bad about Beyonce. And we are talking about Jay Z as an artist not as her husband. 

Thank you! On point! :tony:

The albums aren't all ballads. You should listen to them. 

Probably because both albums dominated the charts for the year they were nominated. Everything about the albums were a huge success, so people were expecting it.

So charts equal grammy success to this site now? Noted.. People used to preach against that.

Also, Adele has a signature sound and yes I've heard both of her albums. She is known for her ballads and her albums reflect that. I like Adele, however I'm showing the bias that this site seems to have and not know it. Adele can sweep and its fine. Sam smith swept and it was fine (before the oscar mess), but Bey sweeps and she's undeserving and must have payed for it. Jay sweeps and he must have paid for it. I just find it interesting to point out. I also don't think albums have to be #1 to be considered grammy worthy.

The albums dominated...like no other albums have done in the last decade. The singles off of 21 and the lead single off of 25 were huge. They dominated on multiple formats for well over a year. The albums were full of quality songs that spread to all demo groups. 

No, she is known for a combination of ballads and uptempo songs. The "she just sings ballads" line is lazy and uninformed. 

And yes, people on this site often repeat the "Beyoncé paid for it" line. It's as lazy as the "album full of ballads" line. Beyoncé's sweep was expected last year. Jay's is a surprise. No one predicted that sweep...not any of the experts or the music publications that make predictions.
