WTF, the Grammy's decided it was Grammy worthy, and last I checked their opinion was more important than Mario from FOMM. smiley: laughsmiley: wink  
I have my own opinions, I don't have to latch onto the Grammy's opinion to form my own mind. 

The Rihaha stans are all the same, latching onto the latest silly thing to boast yoour deluded egos. A pitiful mess. 

The Rihallah haters are all the same, discrediting every accomplishment in her career. Very strange.

Rihanna remains unbothered with her Grammy. Please continue to cry over Tamar's loss.

You'd make a good yellow journalist!

Do I think "Pusher Love Girl" is an R&B Song? Yes. Do I think that means it deserved to win the Grammy for it? No. Those are two different concepts. I don't think a random album track should win an award like that over songs that made real impact. That doesn't mean I don't think "PLG" is an R&B song, though. I consider most of his 20/20 album R&B...because it is.

Yellow journalism, or the yellow press, is a type of journalism that presents little or no legitimate well-researched news

Look like I did my research though

Anyway, you agree it didn't deserve the Grammy. That's all I need to know.

I am sure Mariah was inspired by her, even if it was just on the level of King having written some of the Aretha songs Mariah loved. But Mariah was much more of a music junkie when she was younger, so I am sure she also liked at least some of Carole's own work. I don't think King having been one of Mariah's influences means she has to pay tribute all of the time. Mariah's bigger inspirations were Stevie, Aretha, Patti, etc. and she continues to show them love.

Having said that, I have wondered why Mariah doesn't avail herself more to the Grammys. I don't think she's ever presented, nor has she ever performed as part of a tribute or done anything like that. She obviously doesn't have to, but it's the kind of thing other artists notice and that makes her a bigger part of the music community in general. The last few years it seems the awards shows she makes an effort toward are the BET/Soul Train/etc. type awards.

Mariah did precipitate in Stevie's MusicCares ceremony years ago.  There's no video of it, though.  Just a picture, I think.  She doesn't have to go to the actual Grammy awards.  There are all kinds of events leading up to it, workshops and stuff.  And I think it would really help down the road when she's being looked at for the R&RHOF.

I think the problem is not the Grammy's, but NARAS.  It's too big.  Members count in the tens of thousands.  I think who gets to vote should be a smaller pool.  But who gets to make that decision?

But my reason for thinking that doesn't have to do with him being white, and I really resent the things India.Arie wrote. I think she is way off base.

Was the year she did MusicCares the year she won 3 Grammys? I remember a small video of her talking to kids about how certain singing damages the voice. Was that the same event? Anyway, I do think attending the event and helping out also helps; she would be networking with other musicians. And, yes, it would help for the Hall of Fame. Obviously people shouldn't have to do stuff like that, but it's the nature of the beast. And, really, it's no different than people here disliking Christina for her attitude or something. It's funny to me how people call out the Grammys for their practices when the same stuff or worse goes on around here.

I liked the show a lot. There were a lot of performances I liked enough to watch several times:
-Kendrick Lamar and Imagine Dragons (best of the night for me)
-Daft Punk, Pharrell, Stevie Wonder (a close second)
-Metallica and Lang Lang (basically a tie for second)
-John Legend
-Macklemore & Lewis (more so for the marriages than anything)

And even if I didn't re-watch them, some others were solid:

-Kacey Musgraves
-Beyonce and Jay-Z
-Keith Urban and Gary Clark Jr (both are sick guitarists)
-Robin Thicke and Chicago (mostly because I loved hearing those Chicago songs)
-Sara Bareilles and Carole King (Sara was great, Carole sounded like a dying cat as usual)

The Grammys were horrid. Music was so boring last year for the most part though so I'm not surprised.
