Stra 6 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 no, because i know the grammy's is just a promotional opportunity and the grammy committee never even heard of metacritic. which is why i don't put it in the same league as the oscars i'm fine with it being another award show that awards generic popular music and major label artists as long as it isn't taken seriously as an important award show anymore that isn't rewarding the best of music. Metacritic is one of the WORST tools to ever judge anything. Its completely made of opinions of self-entitled reviewers with zero expertise of any sort. If I was to only buy albums and video games based on metacritic, I would only be listening to alternative unoriginal hipster crap and playing ****ty FPSs and milked game franchise with no substances games The Grammys promote their nominated artist like any good academy should but after it has found success which is perfectly fine. Half the movies released in December need the Oscar buzz for promotion, you don't see how fake that is?

Introvert 0 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 funny thing is, the same could be said about gaga i always saw the fame as a hit and miss album. i don't think so. i don't like EVERY song on The Fame but i don't think it can or should be denied that its a great pop debut from her and generally speaking. kendrick's album is good and i think its placement on this list is fine. but i don't think its better than The Fame.

Cherry 17 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 If I remember correctly some of her singles surged in sales and in the charts after "Kanyegate." She was riding that wave all the way to the Grammys and the win.And I'm sure that has nothing to do with the fact that she performed at the VMAs the same night Kanye interrupted her speech, the fact that she had singles on the radio at the time, and she was doing a bunch of other awards show performances around the same time.Kanye did not make her famous; she was already huge before him.

So basically you just disagree with the Grammy nominations. Okay you have different taste. Whatever. Fun. was the best band last year. The production, the vocals, won them those awards. I like No Doubt a million times better and they flopped last year, so?

Kanye did not make her famous; she was already huge before him. and when did I say Kanye made her famous? Oh right I didn't. She was just another Carrie Underwood until Kanye gave her the biggest pity party the media has ever thrown. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like No Doubt a million times better and they flopped last year, so? fun is an indie maroon 5 the black keys were arguably the best band nominated that night but then there were bands like grizzly bear, tame impala, japandroids, passion pit that released better lp's that were still pop enough to get recognized but sadly just didnt sell that many albums.
