For once I agree with you. Just a calculated mess. I'm glad Rihanna bailed. I'm glad bey only gave them presenter tease. Taylor can sell but she is as basic as it can get when its time to deliver a performance. She is safe, clueless, naive, ditzy, and blonde. With generic music. She caters to all ages and all races. The masses will eat it up. But for colored folk like Kendrick, bey, Rihanna, and others; they have to work overtime to get the masses to hear them. Moreover mold themselves into confirming with current trends or what's hot. I like the fact that rih can diversify. She can be country, alternative, pop, reggae, r&b, soul, and more. Bey as well. But because of the color of their skin they will always be second best. At the end of the day their accomplishments will be swept under a rug while they push the white to the forefront. Nobody was watching the Grammys for Taylor. Or even Gaga! It was for Kendrick, the weekend, Rihanna, and the possibility of bey performing. That's what brought in numbers. Smooth tactic but it's apparent in broad daylight what occurred.
