i've never heard of Jacob Collier He's won in the "arranging" categories 4 times previously. Might he be the Herbie Hancock upset winner this year??

I don't understand how The Weeknd got nothing. Did he not submit anything?

So The Weeknd got zero noms? I sorry but that’s ridiculous Blinding Lights should’ve at least get a nom. I mean, I'm not a fan of the guy but I cannot deny that he dominated the charts the last year. he deserved a couple nominations.

Maybe they wanted to fuck with all the predictions people and tell them all to fuck off by saying how predictable the recording academy is?

They literally shut out The Weeknd and threw everything but the kitchen sink at Beyonce for a song that flopped? Beyonce being the most nominated artist with 9 for breathing? I know they feel sorry for Lemonade losing but still this doesn't make sense

There's literally no one I'm rooting for..maybe except Jhene for AOTY and Megan for BNA. If "The Bones" got noms I'm going for that one too. The lack of noms for Toni and Brandy is disgusting. Shameful! I refuse to watch this shit show. Give Taylor her AOTY now since they made it so easy for her.
MESS at "Yummy"!
Christina shut out for "Loyal Brave True".
fuck!

these is the whitest, safest, most boring picks for AOTY ever. Only Jhene and Black Pumas are the only POCs for AOTY, no rap albums, no Weeknd, wtf?

I'm happy for Gaga and Kaytranada!
Gaga/Ari seem like they might get the Pop Duo/Group performance

Definitely some interesting choices in AOTY. Fetch The Bolt Cutters was robbed and deserved a nom over Hollywood's Bleeding.
Coldplay getting nominated is a huge surprise but I'm thrilled because Everyday Life is such a great album! :)

The Weeknd was absolutely robbed and they should be embarrassed.

Coldplay...? What the hell? The Weeknd should tell the Academy to eat shit. What a massive faceslap.

Listen... In most of the categories I'm pretty happy about the surprise inclusions, more than most years. But the massive snubs outweigh the good inclusions.

The challenge is finding someone who can say they're, for the most part, pleased over this year's noms. Mess. I can't.

Imagine being a Grammy voter and voting for Yummy over Blinding Lights Right? We need a Pulse audit of the Recording Academy.
