Acestea au fost anuntate in cadrul showului ‘The GRAMMY Nominations Concert Live!!—Countdown To Music’s Biggest Night’ si au venit cu o gramada de surprize, placute pentru unii, neplacute pentru altii!
Cele mai multe nominalizari la cea de-a 54-a editie a prestigioaselor premii le-au primit Kanye West si Adele! Va intrebati probabil ce album are sanse sa devina marele material al anului 2011? Ei bine, pentru acest titlu se lupta Adele cu “21”, Lady Gaga cu “Born This Way”, Bruno Mars cu “Doo-Wops and Hooligans”, Rihanna cu “Loud” si, surpriza sau nu, Foo Fighters si al lor “Wasting Light”.
La ‘Song of the Year’ o lupta stransa se da intre Kanye West- “All of the Lights”, Mumford & Sons- “The Cave”, Bruno Mars- “Grenade”, Bon Iver – “Holocene” si Adele- “Rolling in the Deep”. A fost un an bun pentru Kanye, care apare impreuna cu Rihanna si piesa “All of the Lights” si la categoria ‘Best Rap/Sung Collaboration”, dar si impreuna cu Jay-Z si melodia “Otis” la ‘Best Rap Performance’.
Adele a primit nominalizari la ‘Album of the Year’, ‘Record of the Year’, evident ‘Song of the Year’, dar si ‘Best Pop Solo Performance’ si ‘Best Pop Vocal Album’. Si speram sa primeasca si ceva premii…
Nici albumul Rihannei, “Loud”, nu a fost ignorat, mai ales ca a lansat sapte single-uri, dintre care patru hit-uri de Top 10. Pe langa ‘Album of The Year’, piesa cu Drake, “What’s My Name”, a fost nominalizata la ‘Best Rap/Sung Collaboration’, ca si All Of The Lights” cu Kanye West, Kid Cudi & Fergie, alaturi de “Party” — Beyoncé & André 3000, “I’m On One” — DJ Khaled, Drake, Rick Ross & Lil Wayne, “I Need A Doctor” — Dr. Dre, Eminem & Skylar Grey si “Motivation” — Kelly Rowland & Lil Wayne.
Si daca tot am mentionat-o pe Beyonce, aflati ca ea a fost una dintre marile absente din lista nominalizarilor. In afara de track-ul “Party” ft. Andree 3000 nu a reusit sa mai impresioneze cu nicio piesa de pe “4”.
Iata, asadar, si lista completa. Asteptam opiniile voastre!
