Niesamowite, że w kategoriach rockowych prawie nikogo bym nie znał, gdyby nie kajman

Post: #3

Dzisiejszej nocy czasu polskiego w Los Angeles ogłoszono zwycięzców 63 edycji Grammy. Laureaci pogrubieni na czerwono w pierwszym poście z nominacjami.

Post: #4

rozstrzygnięcia w głównych kategoriach nie najgorsze, pomijając to, że wszystko mógłby tutaj zgarnąć the weeknd, gdyby go nie pominięto

cieszą najbardziej statuetki dla gillian welch i davida rawlingsa (choć szkoda, że kosztem laury marling), fiony apple, natalii lafourcade, sary jarosz i mirandy lambert <3

Post: #5

No dla mnie Dua Lipa powinna zgarnać wszystko w czym była nominowana, bo była w tym roku bezkonkurencyjna.
Swoją drogą zabawne, że wygrała za album roku pop z Taylor, z którą przegrała w kategorii album roku. Gdzie tu logika?
Cieszy mnie jedynie nagroda za duet dla Lady Gagi i Ariany, czyli mojego przeboju roku

Post: #6

Album roku - spodziewałem się Taylor, chociaż myślałem, że nagrodę dostanie Jhene Aiko. Billie to zaskoczenie - pozytywne, super numer. H.E.R. - w sumie to też można było przewidzieć, bo wiadomo - BLACK LIVES MATTER, żadne inne tylko BLACK!!!!!!111 xD

Z tego co widziałem to KAYTRANADA zgarnął wszystko z elektroniki - fajnie, cieszy mnie to, ale myślałem, że będą to Disclosure. Szkoda, że niczego nie dostały Chloe x Halle.
