Brent Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 But seriously, some awards are decided by popular vote, some are voted by professional critics. But they're NOMINATED based on what will score the ratings for the program. It's what draws stupid people to watch the show. Do you think that as many people would have watched the Coldplay performance if Rihanna wasn't there? Not to say that Coldplay isn't popular, but to say that the show is maximizing the demographics of people who would watch it. And there are a LOT of Rihanna, Bruno Mars and Chris Brown fans that would have not tuned in if their respective artists weren't nominated. And the recording academy knows this, so they nominate artists that will bring in more viewers. More viewers = more money. It is therefore not a reflection of what's good, but a reflection of what's popular. Yes, the best album or artist will usually win the award, but it's the best of the worst. The least smelly shit. So you can't measure an artist's talent based on the metal they have on their shelves. Like, Bon Iver was one of the most critically successful albums of the year, and people were uproariously angry when he won "Best New Artist" over shitheads like Nicki Minaj: It's bogus. When someone who deserves an award wins an award, a lot of the time they lose sponsorship dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all subjective, it's all a big sham, decent artists dont really give a shit if they win these things anyway, I don't see why anyone cares in general. It's just entertainment, it's not meaningful in any way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nikola Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 @Bwent In short: I agree. Award shows are a moneymaking farce (now). But popular doesn't always = bad. And who's to say what's "good"? You? Me? Some critic? The planet? How do you measure art? Music has a dichotomous quality to it: art and entertainment. You know, some people don't want to contemplate the meaning of life through music every minute of their waking hour, they just wanna fuckin dance. Sometimes it all comes in one package - The Beatles were popular and critically acclaimed. MJ also. If your album sells 100 million copies and wins 8 Grammys and gets awarded 5 stars from most critics, you undoubtedly have something special there. This is not so simple, and I can go on forever, but the bottom line is - I think that Radiohead excels in the art department, but lacks in the entertainment part. But that's just me. I'm sure they're quite entertaining to you. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italian Plastic Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Agreed RIHANNA was nominated for the grammy for Album of the Year. RIHANNA. And BRUNO MARS. Both of whom suck balls. NOT Bon Iver or Radiohead. It's clearly for ratings bullshit. wah, rihanna has released some of the best music ever made bruno mars sucks bon iver has released some of the best music ever made radiohead are the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's a decent singer, but I just don't have respect for her. Bruno Mars does, however, totally suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italian Plastic Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 i don't really respect her...she's weird and tattooed 'thug life' in pink on her fingers but the truth is The Dream wrote one of the best songs of all time (Umbrella) and We Found Love sounds amazing when you are partying in a forest at 3am anyway radiohead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
