The biggest upset of the night undeniably Jazz star Herbie Hancock taking home the coveted Album of The Year award – a category both Kanye and Amy were nominated in. I’m also kinda puzzled as to how Rihanna’s ‘Umbrella’ pick up more than it did. Nothing for Beyonce’s ‘Irreplacable’ either. I guess, a song being a monster hit doesn’t necessarily equate into a Grammy – and rightfully so.
What do you think of the winners list?

justin won a award for his voice
what is happing to music today
The Grammy’s have always been kind of an underdog awards shoe or something like that. The people who win them typically deserve them, but most nominees are kinda random to me. Lupe Fiasco wins for Daydreamin?! Did that not get released in 2006? lol Better late than never, I guess.
why wasnt lloyd nominated in best r and b album
musiq soul child shud of won Best Contemporary R&B Album
ne-yos second album wasnt that amazing
Amy Winehouse won everything…oh well.
Well done Amy she is a heavy lyricist!!

I WAS ROOTING FOR AMY, GLAD SHE DID IT UP, DAMN THAT ALBUM OF THE YEAR BUT HERBIE’S A LEGEND!! I LIKE THE LIST, I HATE KANYE’S ATTITUDE, LOL @ LUPE, BUT JILL’S ON IT SO I’M GOOD, CHAKA GOT SOME, SO DID AREHTA AND MARY AND GERALD! CONGRATS ON NEYO, THAT WAS RECIPROCITY B/C HE SHOULD HAD POSSIBLY BEYONCE’S B’DAY LAST YEAR!! GET IT EVERYONE, DAMN RIHANNA FOR WINNING AT ALL LOL HER PERFORMANCE WAS WACK!
Shut up, Sam. Your such a stupid hater… rightfully so? Umbrella was not just a hit but it’s an amazing song and you know it. Your just biased and only stick up for people that want to interview your cheap imitation blog. I love Kelly and she’s too high to interview you.
I bet if Rihanna wanted to interview you, you’d stop being such a hating little b****.
So shutup you English q****.
And anyone jumping to his defence F*** OFF… I dont give a s***.
