[Rorman Nockwell 56,702]

The way I booked February 5th off for an appt I no longer need to go to, but can now watch the Grammys (Aus time) cos I did so

"That boygenius shit isn't better than any fucking Lana Del Rey that's rapping today, you know?" Banks said. "When they give those awards out -- because the Grammys are supposed to be accolades of artistic excellence, you know what I mean? boygenius is not excellent. [...] When they give these Grammys out, all it says to boygenius is: 'Oh yeah, you're great, you're amazing, you can do whatever you put your mind to.' And it says to Lana Del Rey: 'You don't have shit. You don't own shit, not even the shit you created for yourself,' and it makes me upset."

i don't hate boygenius but i'm not understanding the critical acclaim; how are they up there with lana? not a fan of their whisper singing and tumblr style of songwriting.

and when she wins and she starts saying her ride monologue then whaat 

[Embach 42,322]

If Lana doesn't win any of the awards she's nominated for, even if she doesn't win at least ONE award, I swear to God, I will jump off a cliff...

 

I mean, I know that the Grammy Awards can be a shitshow sometimes but she really deserves it. She carried the 2023's music industry in her back, she and her music were viral all over the (social) media and Ocean Blvd has all the perfect qualities what an AOTY winning album should have. The album was also widely praised by the critics and it did commercially very well, being one of her best sales performance in years!!!!!!!

I really hope and pray but for that to happen she would actually need to swallow her pride. of which the likelihood is as close to zero as mathematically possible

I was analysing previous winners for the Alternative categories and I concluded that they give the award to the most acclaimed song/album... Last year, Best Alternative Music Album was given to Wet Leg, who were competing with Bjork, Arcade Fire, Japanese Breakfast and Halsey (). They also won Best Alternatvie Music Performance, a brand new category, against Arctic Monkeys, Big Thief, Florence and the Machine and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs (Big Thief deserved though). In previous years, Best Alternative Music Album was given to St Vincent, Fiona Apple, Vampire Weekend, The National, David Bowie, Alabama Shakes... so it's safe to assume they care a lot about "professional" critical success for this one. All these artists had the most acclaimed album compared to the rest of the nominees. A&W will definitely win Alt Performance.

 

This year, Lana is against Boygenius, Arctic Monkeys, Gorillaz and PJ Harvey. It'll be tough, as both Ocean Blvd and The Record are the most acclaimed albums of the year; Ocean having more of a retrospective success and is currently enjoying a monumental moment.

 

Best Pop Duo/Group Performance is an instant loss, as they always give it to the biggest collab of the year, as simple as that; Unholy, Kiss Me More, Rain On Me, Old Town Road, Shallow, Uptown Funk... They chose more alternative songs previously, like Feel It Still by Portugal the Man or Stressed Out by Twenty One Pilots, but those were still enormous global hits. Candy Necklace, one of the least "commercial" songs from Ocean Blvd, has no chance, although it would be absolutely epic if it wins. This one will probably go to Taylor Swift and Ice Spice

 I do think Lana will win a main category this time around (I hope I don't eat my words).

 

They didn't even mention Lana in any of their category analysis (apart from the Producer one for Jack) ... the absolute disrespect to not even acknowledge A&W  It's like they think she's not even worthy of talking about

the only thing i have in mind is that in 2019 everyone thought she would win with nfr and that didn’t happen. what i have learned is that the grammys are unpredictable  last year no one thought harry styles would win aoty and well…

Renaissance losing is still a tragedy.
