Beyoncé isn’t nominated this year but we had to relive this moment. Can you say
iconic?
On the contrary her hubby JAY-Z (aka Shawn Carter) takes the lead with the most Grammy nominations for this year. In fact, he holds 21 Grammy’s, just one less than Queen Bey. Will 2018 put him on par with his wife? Regardless, the two are a force to be reckoned with. Along side JAY-Z, songs like “Despacito” and “1-800-273-8255” got major Grammy nods. New artists like SZA and Julia Michaels were recognized. I’m sure the internet is buzzing with opinions, but here are mine…
Record of The Year Prediction
If we’re going off sheer popularity and the record that touched the most people this year, I’d have to predict “Despacito.” I think JAY-Z’s “The Story of OJ” is a close second for the cultural and necessary work of art it is, but whether they know what it means or not, people love themselves some “Despacito” by Luis Fonsi, Daddy Yankee, and Justin Bieber.
Needless to say, I think it’s going to be a big year for the Grammy’s. How could it not be? Finally after fifteen years away from the “concrete jungle where dreams are made,” the Grammy’s will be back home in NYC and we’re stoked. Here are some of the best moments in the last 15 years.
