[Denver]

That sexiest Record of the year shortlist when P!nk has released way better

[Jordan.]

Kesha better snatch pop

[Shaun]

Zayn up for a Grammy, fight me Kazanne

[Wizard.]

When Lana deserves to win Best Pop Album but Coldplay will get it

[Smithy]

Come thru platinum reasons!

[Shaun]

Rainbow > Joanne > LFL

[reece(:]

FOUR for "new gal" Sza, only a legend :clap1:

Jay-Z with a payola, keep it all. lol @ the Ed snubs.

[Ross.]

Katy is SEETHING

[reece(:]

How was LWYMMD not nommed for best vid :suspect:

[Marsh.]

Come thru platinum reasons!

Which performances are they referring to re: gagz and Kelly?

[Marsh.]

Katy is SEETHING

Dyke Perry deserved something for Swift Swift Bitch.

[reece(:]

Katy was robbed, I thought at least Feels would get a nom :o

[Shaun]

How was LWYMMD not nommed for best vid :suspect:

the Grammys aren't here for her Nazi symbolism?

[Marsh.]

Wow, Jay Z is so overrated.

[Smithy]

How was LWYMMD not nommed for best vid :suspect:
Too late
Which performances are they referring to re: gagz and Kelly?

What

[Shaun]

It's just a general term for their "vocal performance" on their song, not for a specific live performance lol

[Marsh.]

Too late


What

They've been nominated for performances! :oh:

PAY ATTENTION!

[Marsh.]

It's just a general term for their "vocal performance" on their song, not for a specific live performance lol

[UserSince2005]

Sam Smith snubbed

[Ross.]

Too late

No it wasn’t, it was snubbed!

Only the album was too late

[Pete.]

The mess if Melodrama wins AOTY (and reputation next year)

[Ross.]

Actually maybe Taylord didn’t submit LWYMMD for this years to prepare us for the 2019 Grammys slaying

[Drew.]

6LACK, Logic and Khalid getting the recognition they deserve

[Shaun]

The mess if Melodrama wins AOTY (and reputation next year)

It won't lol. I'd be amazed if they snubbed Kendrick a third time after the fuss the first two times

[Pete.]

It won't lol. I'd be amazed if they snubbed Kendrick a third time after the fuss the first two times
I'm annoyed melodrama isn't nominated in other categories, would be a shame for it to not be acknowledged (probably better than all the other pop albums in that category)

[reece(:]

The only one I want Kendrick to win is the Rih feature

[EspeonBB]

Screaming @ Ed being snubbed from the major categories *it's what she deserves gif*

I don't understand how Jay-Z managed to get all those noms though, I thought Kendrick would win AOTY (Lorde or him deserve it) but Jay will probably split votes with him so someone like Bruno could win it

Overall weak noms but it's been a weak year in pop so not surprising. Hope Ke$ha can win the pop categories
