NFT: BBI, are ya watching the Grammy Awards?

Beezer : 2/10/2019 9:16 pm
My wife reeeeeeally wanted to so Imin the room with it on. Mostly painful.

Haven’t watched the whole thing. But at least Post Malone on stage with the Chili Peppers was fun. And while I wish some of the hacks who sang during the Dolly medley, at least Dolly was really great. Sidebar: not a country music fan so I had to look up the brunette with the great voice from Little Big Town. I now have a new crush. Hubba hubba.

Who’s watching? What do you hate? What do you like?
Brandi Carlile  
10thAve : 2/10/2019 9:18 pm : link
She’s legit, not packaged like most of those performers there. Not sure if she has played yet but you’re in for a real treat if you do see her performance. She’s excellent.
My wife is watching now.

Wow, Cardy B, never heard her before. She sucks.
My sister texted me:  
Beezer : 2/10/2019 9:30 pm : link
I hope Cardi B falls off the stage. lol

Hadn’t heard her music before this moment. I’d heard OF her. Now I understand my sistr’s text.
Unwatchable....

Tried to watch with wife, couldn’t make it through ten minutes.

Agree with poster above, B Carlisle is awesome. Kacey Musgraves is talented too.
I had heard of Cardi B but never heard her music until now

(that I know of). Yeah, once was enough. But I'm not a rap fan generally.
Kasey Musgraves.

Never heard of her before now. But she is a Demi Moore clone. All good.

Keys was great on the two pianos. Post Malone with Red Hot Chili Peppers was awesome.
My son saw Post Malone in concert maybe a year  
Beezer : 2/10/2019 9:54 pm : link
or so ago. Hadn’t heard of him. But I always try out his music (actually like a lot of his favorite guy Logic’s stuff). And that dude Post Malone has a voice. I’m not buying his music. But I appreciate his talent.

Yeah she always has that 'What is sho gonna do next' vibe working. From all of the styles of music she takes part in, even to her having sex covered in blood in American Horror Story. Earlier tonight she was speaking about mental illness. I'm not trying to marginalize the illness, I think it's great that they talked about it to help raise awareness, but she just seemed odd the way she was urging people to seek help.

Various ways. Lol

I like her generally. Not buying her albums. But her performance on Stern was all-time fantastic. And the movie was really good. I liked it FAR more than the Freddie Mercury thing. Blah.

I would guess Gaga figured since the Shallow song is known now she’d do a different take on it ... a head-banging thing. But it didn’t really work.

She’s still cool in my book. But she cray cray too. And on the crack. lol

I'm not a main stream country music fan, which is why I do like Sturgell Simpson and Margo Price.

I've heard Kasey Musgrave on the UT radio station so when I won free passes to her ACL taping, I went. And left mid-way, was not impressed, she came off as an airhead, didn't even stay for Slow Burn.

I don't know any of these people in real life and I don't want to. They either make good music or they don't. She doesn't, in fact, she's unlistenable. And hearing her interviews is worse. If that's real than I don't want it.

it doesnt have to be for you and others but the lady actually is good.

I couldn't disagree more. She doesn't make her beats and she doesn't write either. So she's just a marketing tool. She has absolutely zero talent.

Not sure what that has to do with rap as a whole. There are a bunch of very talented rappers out there but they aren't as popular with the masses as this clown because people eat up dumb shit.

But, I do find playing instruments and singing to be more "impressive", but a lot of that has to do with the current status of rap now, most of it is just horrid. There's a handful of guys worth listening to but the rest are absolute jokes.

but its all good. Agree to disagree.

I guess you just want to throw out strange comps to use.

Both Lady Gaga and Adele write most of their songs (most being the majority).

They do not write all their songs, but they write more than not.

But if you think Billboard is a measure of anything other than popularity, I don't know what to say. It's like claiming Budweiser is the best beer because it sells the most.
So Lady Gaga being a trained  
UConn4523 : 2/11/2019 9:22 am : link
and talented singer is some how relatable to a no talent want to be rapper who can barely speak in coherent sentences? And that relation is that they both don't write so it must be the same?

Also, Gaga does write some of her own songs but I'll disregard for comparison's sake.

"A Star Is Born." It was a decent movie and she was good in it. But why she has to be such a weirdo onstage, beats me.



Yeah she always has that 'What is sho gonna do next' vibe working. From all of the styles of music she takes part in, even to her having sex covered in blood in American Horror Story. Earlier tonight she was speaking about mental illness. I'm not trying to marginalize the illness, I think it's great that they talked about it to help raise awareness, but she just seemed odd the way she was urging people to seek help.

Have to admit Ssanders, I haven't seen the movie.



Wasn’t that a premise of the movie? She’s spoken about it many times since

That's fair.


The ironic thing is that the KarJenners aren't real, awesome, or talented and yet here they are. It's ludicrous.

5 songs(of her own music) at the top 10 on the Billboard charts

that says something



you know who else had songs high on the charts? The Spice Girls and Milli Vanilli. Billboard isn't a barometer of talent.



Wait, wait, wait, wait. Don't be talkin' about the Spice Girls!
Well..

Really nice to see such a talented performer

like Brandi Carlile get the opportunity to perform at the Grammys. I've been a fan for years & she has a tremendous catalog of music. Her performance last night was amazing-she knocked it out of the park!

Alicia Keys's medley
Brandi Carlisle
H.E.R.
Janelle Monae
Gaga

Carlisle's album is great from start to finish. I also want to check out more of H.E.R. She has a vibe.

I also have to give J.Lo props for the effort and energy at her age. While I don't like the song "Havana," I thought the visuals were great.

I guess you just want to throw out strange comps to use.

Both Lady Gaga and Adele write most of their songs (most being the majority).

They do not write all their songs, but they write more than not.

But if you think Billboard is a measure of anything other than popularity, I don't know what to say. It's like claiming Budweiser is the best beer because it sells the most.


Budweiser doesn't use corn syrup.
Never knew there were so many teenaged girls on BBI

Live and learn
Lady Gaga may be weird and annoying as fuck

But, I don't think there is a more talented musician around. She doesn't just write the lyrics to her songs, but a lot of the music also. She can also play music and has a range on her voice to suit several styles.

she is talented. Her hip hop rhymes is great and her catchy beats get people going.

but i get people dont like hip hop artists because they are seen as no talent people. But fortunately, they are considered music but dont get as much love as those musicians who play instruments or have monumental voices.
I can't speak for all, but I do not consider hip hop artists talentless. I do, however, consider, Cardi B. talentless. Her beats are terrible, her lyrics shit, and as bad and stuoid as she sounds performing, she sounds even worse in interviews.

I couldn't disagree more. She doesn't make her beats and she doesn't write either. So she's just a marketing tool. She has absolutely zero talent.

Not sure what that has to do with rap as a whole. There are a bunch of very talented rappers out there but they aren't as popular with the masses as this clown because people eat up dumb shit.

But, I do find playing instruments and singing to be more "impressive", but a lot of that has to do with the current status of rap now, most of it is just horrid. There's a handful of guys worth listening to but the rest are absolute jokes.



marketing tool... sure. but Lady Gaga, Adele, and others dont write all their music either. Sure they have pipes but that isnt the only criteria.

but its all good. Agree to disagree.


Go look at the credits to all of their music. Cardi B literally does next to nothing. She sucked #### to get to the top and relies on ghostwriters and fake beef with real talent like Nicki Minaj to stay relevant.

Do not group her in with real rappers or rap in general. She’s actually the reason why rap gets a bad reputation, not the other way around.
Mother Teresa was nothing special

Blindly focused on converting people to her way of thinking more than helping the poor.

Chance the rapper has done more good than she ever did.
