It’s that time of year again!
Indeed, the air is still buzzing as yesterday brought with it the highly anticipated 2016 Grammy nominations unveiled, per usual, via an announcement special weeks before the actual showing. But, what also comes with the ‘per usual’ announcement are the jaw-dropping surprises, snubs, and all out “shut-outs” that accompany the annual spectacle.
Always a heated debate-starter, the coveted tally saw the likes of Janet Jackson, Jill Scott, Rihanna, Madonna, and more all go without mention.
For Bieber, whose manager made headlines for his rant regarding his 2013 Grammy shutout, his long-awaited nod came this year as, otherwise, it would’ve been a fourth-go-round despite consistently clocking some of the year’s biggest hits. Like the ‘What Do You Mean’ maestro, Scott has been very vocal about shut-outs in the past. And, while Omarion‘s rant is the main protest making headlines, we’re sure many more are to come.
In the meantime, tuck in below for our list of other surprises and snubs:
It’s Grammy nomination time!
Music’s biggest calendar night, the 58th annual Grammy Awards, are set to air February 15th 2016 live on CBS.
The industry’s brightest stars will align to shine at the event, which will boast performances from the creme de la creme.
Today, excitement for the ceremony soared to new heights as its committee reveals which artists have been nominated in which categories.
What are you waiting for? The nominations for the 2016 Grammys await below…
Only one week remains until August Alsina‘s all-important second studio album ‘This Thing Called Life’ lands in stores.
The record follows the New Orleans native’s debut ‘Testimony,’ which opened at #2 on the Billboard 200 in April 2014 with first week sales of 67,000.
To help best that LP’s total (278k), the 23-year-old has enlisted the likes of Lil Wayne and Chris Brown – with latter appearing on the song ‘Been Around The World.’
Much to the delight of their fervent fanbases, the pair have premiered the track (which samples Lisa Stansfield‘s 1989 classic ‘All Around the World.’)
Take a listen below…
Having penned hits such as ‘Diamonds’ and ‘Chandelier,’ Sia stands as one of our favorite songwriters. And, based on her latest sit-down with Rolling Stone, she’s an equally compelling interviewee.
The hit-vendor is gearing up for the release of her seventh album ‘This Is Acting’ (due January 29th) and makes no secret (or apologies) about the fact the entirety of the set is made up of songs she crafted for other artists.
Speaking with RS, she dished on her experience with tracks she was initially pitching to Rihanna and Kanye West.
Her words about their creative process (or arguable lack there of) make for fascinating reading…
While some may be busy searching for the perfect gift, the most festive decorations, or the right Christmas tree, several artists are gearing up for their holiday album releases.
There are ample pros and cons to releasing during this time of year and after the jump we will discuss the most effective ways to capitalize on the 2015 holiday season…
Next Monday sees the nominations for the 2016 Grammy Awards announced!
The coveted honor is deemed as the Holy Grail for singers and performers alike. Garnering 57 years of prestige has not come without its fair share of controversy. While often difficult to find the rationale in the decisions behind who is nominated and ultimately given the award, it is clear that commercial success alone is not always enough.
After the jump, we outline a few of music’s top acts that are yet to obtain the coveted gramophone trophy.
Chris Brown is keen to ensure his next album ‘Royalty’ fares much better than its predecessor ‘X.’
So, the Urban Pop prince made his made to ‘Tonight’ to perform his latest single ‘Zero‘ before the album’s release after collaborating with Rita Ora & Tinashe to assist their forthcoming releases.

Press play after the leap…
Fleur East has been burning up stages this month with sassy showings of her debut single ‘Sax.’
And while intricate choreography has been a staple of said performances, the Londoner proves she can be equally compelling in a stripped-back setting.
This week, armed with her band, she stopped by the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge where she rocked out to ‘Sax’ and Nick Jonas’ ‘Levels.’

As earlier reported, Rihanna is set to hit the road.
The 27-year-old model is looking to put the past year of poorly received music behind her and finally accelerate with new album ‘ANTI’ – the world tour for which was announced today.
Sponsored by technology giant Samsung, the trek will play to audiences across the globe and clocks in at over 70 shows.
Tickets go on sale December 3rd at LiveNation.com and fresh reports suggest an album tie-in is likely to be explored so as to buffer sales.
Whatever the case, we just hope she’s leaving the stiff whines, pom pom pats, and gargling goat vocals in times of past. The tour kicks off in February, so she has ample time to right the many wrongs from past jaunts.
In the here and now, check out the first batch of ANTI World Tour dates below…
