But she doesn't have the best songs in the category. (my opinion). Kelly deserves better material. /end of story I know the Grammys have had some weird choices over the years, but that wasn't a song award. It was a vocal one, and Kelly fits that bill (IMO, of course). Wait, best Pop Album isn't a vocal award. Isn't it an award for the whole album from songwriters to producers?

Isn't it an award for the whole album from songwriters to producers? Correct. There is NO vocal award given that is based on vocals alone. Even Pop Vocal (or Pop Solo) is about the song as a whole and not just who the voters think laid down the best vocals. They put vocals in the name because the song must feature vocals. The same is true for the album, the album must feature vocals on it and not be an instrumental album, which has its own award category.

Rihanna sounded great during her performance. I always thought Mikky Ekko was black. I was wrong.

I'm normally not a Rihanna fan AT ALL but she really impressed me tonight with her look & vocals. She was great!

Isn't it an award for the whole album from songwriters to producers? The word ''vocal'' is used because there's a category for instrumental pop album. And yep, it's an award for the singer and every single person that worked on the album basically. The album did deserve to win simply because it was the best album in that category.

There's over an hour to go and there's only three more awards to present? Best New Artist, ROTY and AOTY right? Talk about filler.... yeesh!

The Grammys don't give awards based on vocal ability, that's a huge misconception. True. I'm just so happy for Kelly. I own every album in that category and I love each of them, I'm just glad she finally won after so many years! The Black Keys are great too. I love the vibe of this whole performance.

"Lonely Boy" would work so much better without the jazz band.

Not even close to the best album in the category. All of the other albums were better. None of the other albums had the filler that Kelly had in her album. It is the weakest album of Kelly's career.

2 good RiRih-related moments: - Big yawn after her performance of someone in the audience - She running from the camera without even clapping as soon as she was not announced as winner

I am starting to think The Black Keys will sneak away with ROTY. Are they nominated for AOTY, they may win that, too. Just feels like their night.

I'm loving the Black Keys performance. The Louisiana in me appreciates Dr. John and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band.

The Black Keys sounded cool with The Preservation Hall Jazz Band, but Dr. John was under-utilized there. Still, good performance.
