Last night, the 2009 Grammy nominations were announced during a concert televised on CBS. Here are my general thoughts:
- I am very glad that British artists got serious representation this year. Estelle, Adele, Duffy, Leona, and Coldplay all received multiple nominations. Honestly, most of the good music this year came from across the pond. Hopefully, everyone could at least get one Grammy.
- I am a little skeptical over Lil' Wayne's eight nominations, especially in Album of the Year. Yes, it sold a million copies in its first week, but was it really that brilliant? I'm not too sure. I did like the singles released though.
- The Best New Artist category is a farce, just because the Jonas Brothers are nominated.
Later on, I will give my predictions/chances on all the major categories.
