Didn't the preshow cause a lot of uproar last year because of all the awards given out before the show? Seem's like another disaster :bear:

I can't wait for the Grammys to come up with a justifiable excuse for this...they just are having the worst year of press honestly...:yennefer:

Stream my new single, 💜"Heartbeat"💜, on Spotify!

I’m just wondering who in the r&b category topped the charts (positions from 1-10) that are nominated. 
 

I’m not agreeing with keeping them for the pre televised cast but just wondering cause the actual televised Grammys are for the most popular albums and songs right?

no necessarily. the past couple of years they’ve been televising awards like best comedy album. 

I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill.

They always switch up which categories end up televised though. They won’t be televising it since the big R&B and rap artists won’t be there or weren’t nominated: the Weeknd/Cardi weren’t nominated, and Beyonce seems like won’t be attending

I think this show would be more interesting if they included more categories in the main show instead of many performances, its an award show not a music festival, the oscars spend 3 hours showing all their categories and giving everyone the proper recognition, this show is just all about the marketing, so annoying.

omg does this mean gaga and ari might actually win pop duo? dua taylor and bts are all scheduled to perform, and they're all the frontrunners for the award. inb4 intentions wins :bear:

 

OP: They keep messing things up, why in the year of racial justice and social change would you silence these voices?

I agree with this, but I do think that if they removed the performances from the grammy's a lot less people would watch it. I feel it's not as culturally significant as other award shows for the general population.

They just keep sinking deeper and deeper into oblivion, last year best comedy album was part of the main show.... what a joke

I've got an "F" and a "C" and I got a "K" too And the only thing that is missing is a bitch like "U"

Pop/duo winners sometimes also win a main award, so I don't think its a surefire thing at all
