Grammy voters are no different than us. If you really think they have special knowledge.. then you're naive. This isn't exactly true. As has been said, the voters are people who work in the industry. They are "different" in that music is their literal livelihood, which likely is different from most of us. Out of that my assumption is they look at things a little different than we do. I know I've read before that voters tend to prefer recordings with a lot of live musicians and such on them. That makes sense as many voters are musicians and respect that work versus something more production-driven.

If I get to hear Cardi say the words “I want you to park that big Mack truck right in this little garage” on national television tonight, I will consider that cosmic payback in full for every other miserable thing that’s happened in the last 365 days. Don’t let me down, CBS.

I'm shocked by the Kanye win. I wouldn't have thought that voting body would embrace him. Interesting.

Interesting. i wonder if a lot of his voters don't listen to christian music but only recognized his name, above cody carnes, hillsong young, we the kingdom, and tauren wells. certainly his poor reviews didn't detract.

Does Alanis get a Grammy for "Jagged Little Pill" winning Best Musical Theater Album? They didn't say her name when listing the recipients.

Beyoncé and Jhene Aiko lose their genre categories for “Black Parade” and Chilombo. That doesn’t spell particularly great news for general field success.

Before this show pops off, I just want to come in here to comment that the black erasure when it comes to Bruno Mars' identity has to stop. As a mixed-race, POC, who grew up in Hawaii, to hear the accusations of his cultural appropriation is absolutely ridiculous - especially with his Puerto Rican and Filipino background consisting of highly afro and afro-Latino populations. I don't know what percentage of each he has to have in his blood for you to consider him "black enough" to make the music he makes - but to characterize his ethic ambiguity as a reason that he borrows and benefits from black music is problematic. Not to mention as a kid from the 90's, growing up in a heavily R&B influenced musical landscape, to police the kind of artistry he is able to study and craft, and bring to his audience is also pretty ridiculous, when he's been completely open about his influences and the music that made him want to become an singer/musician.
Look at him doing Michal as a teenager. This music is in him and in his soul. Ya'll need to stop trying him.

Chloe x Halle were robbed for Album but ecstatic that Ledisi and Meshell Ndegeocello are finally official Grammy winners.
Also, looks like Best R&B Performance will be televised after all.
