I don't know other OOTer's opinions, but I remember when Grammy nominations and awards went out to the best and most innovative artists of the year.
Seems like now, it's a re-hashing of the Billboard Top 100 chart. It's a real shame that the voters don't recognize real talent in music-making anymore.
Nomination List
I mean really, Mariah Carey with 8 nominations? Now Kanye West I can see, but if he wasn't so popular, he probably wouldn't have been nominated.
Sorry, needed to vent about the sad state of popular music...
