The Grammy Awards haven’t been relevant for years. They have often ignored Hip Hop and don’t have a good record of providing artists that truly deserve the award or even the nomination to end up on the program. I know a lot of people that just ignore its existence. I still tune in though. I’m not sure why.
This year there were a few cool moments and a few that just sparked some rage. At least the Grammy Awards are still proving that they are out of touch.
If you didn’t tune in, I provide a brief recap of what you missed. I also spin some great new tunes.
