ues, kendrick and lorde are serious and dedicated artists who are willing to take risks on their music, bruno's album is cute and a bop but the other two are way better, i'd be happy if one of them won

... and now i just sit in silence.

Agreed. What Bruno did was nowhere near the level of artistry that Kendrick and Lorde, among others, brought to the table.

Melodrama was an okay album. Damn truly deserved AOTY . With the way things are going I won’t be surprised if Taylor Swift wins next year. The  Grammys have lost its appeal to me .

Still a better album than 24K Magic and the other nominees in the AOTY category imo. 

funny. I’m listening to finesse right now :trollga:

Btw. We all have different tastes. I don’t like Lordes music, but I understand that you do and others too. In this case 24k magic won and I can relate to that, it is a good album.

bling, not the music i guess

? you just wrote that Damn. and melodrama were the biggest albums of 2017. melodrama was not big as I said before, only critically acclaimed. On the other hand, Damn. was big, critically acclaimed AND had meaningful topics. It stood between damn and 24k and now bruno mars. I dont see the point why you guys are mad, I would be mad that gaga didn’t won over Ed, now that really is a case for the fbi.

I don't have anything against Bruno, I'm genuinely happy that his work is being appreciated by fans and the GP in general. The fact here is that AOTY is not an award honoring fun and catchy music, which Bruno's undeniably is. It doesn't award critical acclaim or sales, it awards by definition artistic and technical excellence and meanwhile entertaining, playful and hip-moving music can be subjective to all, excellence has a certain degree of objectivity. An Album Of The Year should embody deep lyrical content that touches thought-provoking personal matters or social awareness; it shouldn't be about anything about music that, in some way, leaves a sign in music history. I personally don't think 24K Magic did any of that but then again, that's me. I get and respect your opinion.

Grammy-worthy, ain't it? :emma:

Ummm - Pokerface won a Grammy and her lyrics could be used in this same joke. There are more aspects than just lyrics (although I don't think this Bruno song should have won).

Poker Face won Best Dance Recording, which seems pretty fine by me. I'd still stand by the joke if PF won any unfitting Grammy, the fact that I'm a fan of the artist shouldn't stop us from seeing things for what they are.

You guys are taking these award shows way too seriously... They don't really mean anything. It's cool to be nominated and to win, but it's not the end of the world if that's not the case. Some of my favorite artists out there have never won anything ever, and it doesn't mean anything about their talent - it just goes out to show what popularity and good PR can do :awkney:
