Well it's was important, because people held the academy in high regards and respect. Because it's to supposed to represent talent and artistry. Its music biggest night. Now we know what's going on behind scenes, and the Grammys has lost respect, and value. The Grammys and Oscars wasn't just a trophy prior to the discovery. It may have appeared as just a trophy, but to even get a nomination was once a huge thing. To have nominee in front of your name elevates your career and increases your demand. Opportunities comes . Quick scenario okay we have this artist who is Grammy winner, then we have another artist who isn't a Grammy winner, the Grammy winner will more than likely get paid more for the same gig

[@suealvin1274]

@@j.r.t7070 I get what you're saying but didn't the Grammys start by nominating only white artist in main categories while snubbing black talented artists? It was just like that until Michael Jackson broke the racism barriers with thriller. So when did the Academy start of by nominating and awarding talent? And when did it stop? I would like to know cause we have many talented artists such as Diana Ross who started in the 60s and never won a Grammy. We also have Michael Jackson who was also snubbed by not winning any single award for his album Bad in the 80s. The Grammys has always ignored talented artists and awarded favorite artists (which include talented and mediocre artists). Have you noticed how LEGENDS and ICONS like Mariah Carey, Micheal Jackson, Queen, Tupac, Biggie etc have been heavily snubbed by the Grammys? And these are the most talented in the industry. So I still don't get the hype. The Grammys has always been that way in the beginning but people ignored it and now people are mad? The Grammys has and will never represent talent in the industry so let that sink in! The Academy just used psychology to fool the public believing that they represent talent when they only give awards to their favorite and it's purely politics.

It’s pronounced Bone eevare(good winter in French). I hate this stigma that non-mainstream artists are nobodies who don’t deserve awards. Bon Iver has a strong fan base and has made magnificent songs for both KANYE and TAYLOR. Also, most of his albums are critically acclaimed.

[@glenwarne6492]

@@chukwuemekaokereke2917 true lol these people just listen to mainstream music

[@somebraveapollo8211]

I have a love/hate relationship with Mr. Vernon. I love the majority of his albums from a production standpoint and his penchant for experimentation is admirable. Too bad everything else about him and his music I find insufferable and/or pretentious. Him collaborating with Kanye basically set off a wave of alternative artists attempting to buy their "black card". I'm not against musicians fleshing out their sound and exploring new avenues, in fact, I sort of encourage it. I'm not a purist, and good on those in hip hop that gave them a chance and the exposure. Y'all didn't have to. It kinda rubs me the wrong way that the genre is handing out credibility like carnival lollipops, as if the majority of those in, in this case, Kanye's audience rlly cares that much about who contributed to a track. Hip hop has strayed away too far from its roots. The reason why people turned to rapping was to avoid getting into trouble/being harassed and profiled by white, racist cops, by releasing that negative energy into a passion. You're now giving your oppressors the spotlight. (I admit his vocals on "Dark Fantasy" are fire, tho.) A friend of mine said it best: barista rock. If he could've won Best New Artist category, it should've been for his debut in 2008. This was definitely the era of the Grammys where they gave too much of a fuck about critical reputation. Trying to appease the indie crowd and the pop crowd simultaneously. Kind of ironic since Bon Iver was already signed to a major label at this point. It's known as a showbiz, almost Vegas-y event in the amount of bloat and pomp. Nicki should've won because, frankly, 2010 wouldn't be the same without her providing the soundtrack. There are a thousand of Bon Iver clones, and ones who did it better with greater success.

I remember watching the 2012 Grammys and Nicki’s performance. I was in awe. I was shocked. It was the best thing I’ve seen on television, the best performance I’ve ever seen ( besides Amy Winehouse ) in a long time. Funny how that song blew up years later because of the meme culture but the meaning is fantastic. Nicki’s theatrical abilities is powerful and she is a legend. She’s deserved so many #1s and Grammys at this point but remember Katy Perry, Snoop dog, Sia , Diana Ross etc do not have Grammys. I will even give Doja a nod because I believed she was robbed for BNA but again Grammys doesn’t define your excellence, talent and versatility. Nicki will come back this year and make this a very interesting year in music as she’s always done. The people are waiting, they aren’t waiting for a Grammy. It’s like an apology that you force out of someone, it means nothing when forced.
