Oh yeah!! Paul McCartney and Radiohead to play The Grammy's!

you know... I must post my two cents!!! Hey Grammys, where is my ticket? Back in December I wrote a post about the Grammy nominations my rants & ravs and pics, how I felt, they were, 'kinda faulty'. Let's be real, most music award shows- are lame. The same people win these things over & over again-heavy yawn...

As a music lover & watcher of these music awards, you wish, these shows would pull off something fresh & hot like BET's music awards.. as posted earlier this month. C'mon people, the Grammy's are suppose to be the highest honor an artist can receive, The best of the best.-Make the show exciting & fresh to the viewers & artists in attendance, damn already.

The music skinny
I tell myself, every year, I am not going to watch any more 'music award shows' why? Cuz I believe they are fixed with publicity and pushing album sales. Base these high honors on musical ability and real artistic talent, not who has the most 'paper' to push all the hype or
'In pocket'.. Not Once, on the west coast have I heard Paul McCartney's latest Fireman album on the airwaves?.. Real talk.

Paul McCartney & Radiohead at the Grammy's
While at lunch today, I checked my email, and low & behold I read via Billboard mag, Paul McCartney AND Radiohead are to perform at this years Grammy's? Say whaa? Woohooo!!!
I had to reread this twice, just to make sure, I read that correctly. Whew, I hope Macca isn't snubbed this year and wins an award for his Grammy wining performance's at Amoeba Records-in Hollywood. We remember when,Paul, performed Vanilla Sky for best original song in 02 than walked away with ...NO Grammy...

I also think it Fantastic! Radiohead is going to perform at this years Grammy's too. Doesn't Radiohead, despise the Grammy's? lol I'm in awe they will be there.- I can't wait to see their performance as well as Macca. They better win too.. dangit!

Other artists at the Grammy's
I don't know if Adele will be a performer at this years Grammy's? she outta be. I think she deserves a Grammy with that lil ditty 'Chasing Pavements' it's so damn catchy, I love her vocals & soulful passion. This girl can sing! Just like Amy Winehouse last year with all her Grammy nods, which was well deserved-.this girl can belt em out also. Now, take Talyor Swift, this girl cannot sing live, as I heard her blow it in two recent live performances. I hope she is not a contender for a Grammy, Are you kidding me?

Yeah Lil Wayne, will win a bunch of Grammy's..why? and Kanye West, (that's a given) than talk about how he is' the Greatest' like Ali..please no..lol Why not Ludacris he has mad rappinig skills with talent., TI, Tpain, Lil John? Oh, am I gettin carried away? you get the point. I won't rant to much longer. I'm not a broken record who's lost it's groove. ha~

Bet
Coldplay, & Radiohead will win Grammys-wanting Paul McCartney to get his just re-awards too.
I donot wanna go thru the entire list again who I think who will win & who should win..see link above if interested..

Music awards, are thrown away to the untalented, my opinion of course..get to the REAL artists...honor them...

Tighten up Grammy's, forget album sales .give us something solid, Musical Genius and Talent. Give the deserving what they deserve. A Grammy~

perhaps more later...

Notes in Music
Sun Jan 11th mid day

Freakin Lame ass music awards
note: this post has caused me hours of searching time. ha!

Two weeks ago, or there abouts, I happened to catch the World Music Awards 2008. In a nutshell, it was Lame..
The highlights Beyonce, Anastasia-(wow it's been years since I've seen her) Estelle-man that is a catchy lil tune now isn't? always great to see Ringo. Than the guy from Russia who looked like a wigged out Liberace..what the? entertaining if anything I was going to post the link but I'll pass..I laughed my ass off..Madcon's Beggin was pretty good-sorry tho- I have seen better versions..

To make matters worse, Kid Rock was given World's Best Pop Male Artist - World's Best Pop Rock Male Artist awards. UM, say what? Bullchips! I swear these awards are rigged. Kate Ryan from Belgium? cool song high energy techno- had the crappiest dancers you have ever seen in your life.. truly embarrassing not kidding. Take a clue all- music award shows, you could aspire to be as wicked cool &; hot as the BET awards 2008-

BET'S 2008 Awards one of the best ever~

I happened to catch this on the BET channel last sunday and what? this rawked!~ Dunno why I hadn't seen it before, but if you have the chance, watch it. It's a must watch show-alright than? OK, Now, this is what an award show should be like! Ne-Yo gave a great performance and hey, he can dance. he's got lottsa- style a showman.

I must say, there where two more performances that stood out in my mind a week later. T-Pain &; Crew Ludca, Flo Rida', Big Boi and more. This reminded me of Macca's opening Pre-show in 04 Hip-Hop gansta style, well see for yourself below. The video is kinda rough. Than out comes Al Green a tribute of sorts at first.



T-Pain, Flo Rida, Rick Ross, DJ Khaled & Ludacris Performance at theBET Awards 08

Excellent performance above. No, brilliant performance.

Al Green at BET Awards-Oh yeah!
Correction the Rev. Al Green. He had em all going in the audiance. My mouth dropped, as he began into Love & Happiness-um what? Love & Happiness, is in my siggy line in all my emails, hehehehe. I have never seen Al Green, live, anywhere..not even on tv. I stood up, with a big ol smile on my face, clapped at the TV when he finished. Love me some Al Green and Ludacris too...ah!




Love & Happiness-Al Green

And if by some miracle I was hoping, hoping Kanye West, wouldn't step on stage as the camera kept paning in his direction. He than made the freakin comment (on stage) when someone else was accepting an award (not him)-best video, I think it was? ' "I am the King right now'' the King of Rap"... I said out loud 'Oh brother' No Kanye, there is only one King, that is Elvis-get it straight, get it right-Kanye ' "If ya can't Get right? Get Left!". That dude makes me shudder! Why can't he just- get lost?!?

I can also hope the Grammy's aren't freakin white washed in bleach and Lame as the World Music awards were. The Execs of the show need to watch The BET AWARDS SHOW plain & simple.

Sunday Super Oldie Show
