Anyways, a year after women were comparatively shut out, we have the following people winning: Brandi Carlile H.E.R. Dua Lipa Kacey Musgraves Ariana Grande Cardi B Lady Gaga (might have missed someone?) Pretty good year. I would have probably given "All The Stars" ROTY instead, and SOTY to "Shallow" or "The Joke", but otherwise, I think the winners were pretty good. Ella Mai

The biggest error of the night was Brandi not swiping SOTY. I can deal with everything else even if I don't necessarily agree with it, but that's a huge blunder.
It was overly long, was sloppy production-wise and Alicia didn't do much to keep the gears turning, but I enjoyed the show overall. Which is surprising. I wasn't overly thrilled with the line-up, but almost everybody did a good job or at the very least entertained me.

Anyways. Travis went home as the best performer of the night. Astroworld still top 10 at Bollboard so clearly the GP likes the album while these 85 year committee members continue to pay it dust.

Iβm fine with Childish winning ROTY, but that SOTY belonged to Brandi. 100%

I would have liked to see All The Stars get either or both over This Is America. And Shallow or The Joke of course.
Iβd say the big win tonight is that the world has now discovered Brandi and HER. Iβm excited to check out the HER ep!

I'm still in shock but my god when it's right, it's right. So proud of Kacey getting everything she deserves. This album is TIMELESS. I cannot wait to finally see her in March.

I came into this show with low expectations but while there were a few rough moments, I have to say I generally enjoyed it. Most of the performances were good and I liked having a variety of televised winners. Kaceyβs AOTY won was an excellent cap to the night.
While clearly calculated after last yearβs embarrassments, I did appreciate what seemed to be a genuine effort to add diversity to the show and give almost all of the major nominees some shine (the Ariana debacle notwithstanding). I did not think βThis is Americaβ should have won Record or Song, but I hope that songβs recognition was a turning point and that the Academy gets it right for deserving urban nominees in the general categories going forward.
By far my favorite moment of the evening was Cardi changing βI ride his dickβ to βI ride his truckβ in βMoney.β LMAO.

117 Pages this year compared to 64 last year. I think Pulse like the grammys better this year.

I'm interested in seeing what the ratings are b/c it was actually a better show than probably anyone expected, but the producers put such a sour taste in a lot of people's mouths before Sunday even got here that I'm thinking many skipped out on watching live.
Production was uneven. Alicia was so high even my mom noticed. J. Lo had no business doing that Motown tribute and if you still don't get why that was a problem at this point you're just intentionally being obtuse. They cut off literally every winners' speech there was after less than a minute, and Drake's speech was that one dark cloud reminding us all that shit still ain't sweet. But most of the performances overall were good and none of the winners were really problematic or 'wrong,' unless you're in bitter stan mode. My main gripe there is that - since I was wrong about Brandi sweeping or even winning one general category - they should have presented one of her categories on air. People need to KNOW that that voice did not go home empty-handed. I also appreciate that a larger than usual amount of less-recognized talent got a chance to shine tonight (Janelle, Kacey, H.E.R., Brandi, Chloe x Halle) and hopefully attracted some new fans.
Get rid of the old fossils and this show can really be something glorious one day.

I'm so glad for Kacey because she seems so down to earth and humble. But I can't get over how badly Travis was snubbed. They awarded someone who literally hates them and didn't even want to show up in the first place. Astroworld or Swimming deserved Best Rap Album. Dua Lipa did not deserve Best New Artist at all. She's so mediocre and brings nothing new to the table. Then they award This Is America twice, and it's not even that good of a song. They completely disregarded X in the Memoriam segment too. Absolutely disgusting and these awards need a huge makeover next year. X is absolutely disgusting and needs a makeover in hell Dua Lipa is good everything else I agree
