Grammy Nominations, the poll - Nubblies.net Forums

Schroeder · 12-09-2004, 07:47 AM

Well, the Grammy nominations came out today and I'd like to see everyone's opinion on these. Basically most of the categories are covered, about 20 questions.

Schroeder · 12-09-2004, 07:54 AM

In my opinion, every award Kanye West or Green Day wins is well deserved. While "American Idiot" is just a good song, the album as a whole is beyond comparison. By far and away my favorite cd. Kanye West deserves his awards just for the way he has turned the rap world on it's head, going completely against the formula, and still selling countless albums.

in my opinion, grammy nominations are kind of a joke. most of the bands/artists that are nominated suck.

the ones with the real talent are sitting back in the shadows.

I completely agree. Going through the list "this shit is all trash" kept going through my mind.

Kanye West is a good producer, but they picked all his worst shit to nominate.

And for christ sake "Drop it like it's hot?" I hate this kind of shit, when somebody becomes famous they can shit on a record and sell it.

Fuck Snoop, Fuck the other guy with him, and fuck the grammys.

The poll sucked. Just like 99% of the music on it. Fuck the grammies.

god bless Hatebreed

I really don't give two shits about anyone else in any of the questions

Now, I could be wrong on this, but if the music you like (fancymeghan and DJFC) started being Grammy nominated or whatever, you'd stop listening to it. Admittedly, part of why you guys like the music you like (I've seen your suggestions in Download of the Day) is because it isn't popular with the mainstream.

You're welcome.

I am thankful that my poll has confirmed that nobody actually likes the Black Eyed Peas, as I was hoping was the case.

Absolutely wrong. I hate the kids who love a band until they become popular and then turn on them because suddenly everyone else likes them.

Kanye West is a great artist, he's on the list. Usher, Lil Jon, Ludacris, these are not good artists.

But look at the tracks they selected from each.
Jay-Z (I love Jay-z) - 99 Problems, this could be one of the worst tracks by him ever, it is equivalent to dog shit.
Eminem (one of the greatest rappers ever) - Lose yourself, I cant explain how much dog shit this song is, it makes 99 problems look like a la bamba burrito when you are drunk
Snoop Dogg (One of the few artists that has actually gotten worse, rather than being disliked solely for his popularity) - Drop it like its hot, not only is this a slap in the face to the old Hot Boyz (whose version was WAY better), but this song is dog shit, just like the others.
Terror Squad - Lean Back, this track is dogshit, but it got played a lot, and it has Fat Joe in it (AKA a bad rapper who gets on MTV)

Edit:
Look at the albums that got nominated.

To the 5 boroughs - The beastie boys are WASHED UP, they used to be pioneers even though they were never really good, but now they suck.
The Black Album - Not terrible, probobly deserves to be a selection
LL COOL J? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?
Suit- Nelly is Dogshit, and he's hardly a rapper anymore, at least not like they used to be.
The College Dropout - The clear winner.

Look at some of the albums they forgot that clearly should be options.

Eminem - Encore
Fabolus - Real Talk
Young Buck - Straight Outta Cashville
Shyne - Godfather Burried Alive

These should be on the list, not the fucking beastie boys, Nelly, or LL Cool J.

The Grammy's do suck. I was always a fan of the Billboard Awards, since the grammy's were so far off of reality.

wrong. there are some bands i like that have gone mainstream, but in most cases, they totally changed their style and i don't really like that. i mean, listen to modest mouse now (meh...) and listen to their old stuff from '97. i don't mind "good news..." but it's just not "lonesome, crowded west." (like DJ mentioned above)

there are things i listen to that are mainstream. example: justin timberlake/beyonce.

so, yes, shroeder, you are wrong.

Paul van Dyk is the shit, but most of his fans would agree that "Reflections" was a shitty shitty album, and terrible and didn't appeal to his fans but rather the general public, interesting that only then did he get a Grammy nomination.

....yeah -- i agree, people are basically getting sick of the same old rock/hip-hop/r&b bullsh*t....

. and there is just this big upsurge from a new style coming out of Europe -- best place i've found it so far is a compilation series called 'euro club hits' on itunes -- or check this link:
