Grammys : Eminem robbed in the Best Album category?

[wordsRweapons]

I cant agree enough. Eminem got robbed. Grammy voters are still hesistent to give the nod to hiphop artists. Arcade Fire is fucking garbage. My next door neighbors garage band is 10 times better.

i didnt know people really cared about the grammys. i dont know what arcade fire is, so i cant say they robbed marshmallow, but recovery was wack.

I don't know if they're pure garbage, but the single for "The Suburbs" was garbagetastic. It was SO bad. I couldn't believe an album named after that song won. Thank you for feeling me on this one, my friend, I salute you. And that profile pic as well.

Uhhhh......do I have to be white to take this thread seriously?

Thank you friend. Arcade Fire sucked in their live performance too. I dont see what the Grammy voters saw in them, but oh well I guess. Ill just keep playing Recovery. I love that album.

I think the Grammys are out of touch again. I tried to watch them. Right as I switched the channel to the show, the sound went out on my TV. I couldn't figure out if the TV was screwed up or the cable signal, so I turned on an old Nintendo system I have to check the sound. All of a sudden none of the games worked. I didn't really want to watch anyway - I wanted to be listening to Game's Purp & Patron (which is an AMAZING fucking THREE DISC mixtape he's dropping pre-R.E.D.) - and that shit was eerie, like the fucking twilight zone.

So I just turned it off and listened to P & P instead, had a great night, and heard the next morning that the show was boring. Maybe the universe was trying to tell me I should be listening to actual, decent music instead of the sludge passing as "mainstream" enough to get nominated right now, for the most part. Sorry to be so negative, but our music industry hasn't been SHIT for like three years! I don't even dare turn on my car radio anymore to listen to "hip hop" radio stations playing shit I can't even recognize as music. Thankfully there is still amazing stuff out there if you know how to stay away from the mainstream...

In no way is arcade fire mainstream........ and they deserved that award if you listened to the album. Ive heard both, and recovery was wack imo

I thought he might win but then Lady Antebellum was racking up all the awards..I thought he was gonna lose to them..when they said arcade fire I was like wtf lol..white or not Em is still a "rapper" at the end of the day..

 

[TheReplay]

No. I don't really give a fuck about race with regard to the music someone makes, and you shouldn't either.

NO. Lady Gaga was robbed.

Em didn't even have the best hip-hop album last year.

I didn't like Recovery or Relapse.... They market that shit as "Great" and "He's Baaack" and blah blah blah... and people eat it up. If they just put it out and let tha music do tha talking most people saying his new shit is great would be saying it's not all that, with tha exception of ShadyTeam. Em can be and without a doubt was a good artist, but he fell off. I won't go as far as to say he's wack, but he definitely doesn't have what he did back in tha day. I don't know anything about them dudes who won Best Album, so I can't speak on if he was robbed or not... I'm just saying I can understand somebody else winning over him.

^^^Truth Right here.

 

[Kame]

[StillDreaming]

^^^Truth Right here.

That'll do Shadyteam.....that'll do.

Arcade Fire was the best album of the lot, their a dope band and far from Mainstream. Can't say i feel bad for Eminem when he has won Grammy's for these bullshit.

Relapse - Best rap album

Crack a bottle - Best rap performance

The Real Slim Shady - best rap solo performance

My name is - best rap solo performance

etc

Next to TES, I feel Recovery was his best work. Look at it from a life point of view, he dropped some emotional shit. He drowned himself in drugs/alcohol, he lost Proof, he lost his marriage again with Kim. This shit wasn't a hip hop album about bitches, money, drugs, cars and bling. This was Eminem jumping back on the mic and dropping true to life shit, his life yes, but still true to it. There was maybe 2 or 3 songs that were filler.

Recovery was his best work since TES, the other albums are just strange play around content. He hasn't fell off, lyrically he came with it on Recovery and he dropped so much sick wordplay it's ridiculous. To not give him album of the year was bs, he improved a shit load from Relapse. Fuck, he scrapped Relapse 2 and remade a whole new album into Recovery, who does that?

It's whatever though, I never heard of Arcade Fire until Grammy night. I peeped them on iTunes and I don't even see the hype for an award.

And shut the fuck up about race, salty ass mofo's.
