Asa cum va informam intr-un articol recent, pe sase decembrie a avut loc un eveniment live in cadrul caruia s-a dezvaluit lista artistilor nominalizati la cea de-a 56-a editie a premiilor Grammy care vor avea loc pe 26 ianuarie in Staples Center din Los Angeles si vor fi difuzate live pe postul de televiziune CBS.
Luandu-ne dupa lista nominalizatilor, muzica urban/hip-hop este in plina glorie. Jay-Z conduce topul cu nu mai putin de noua nominalizari, Kendrick Lamar, Justin Timberlake, Pharell Williams si Macklemore & Ryan Lewis se lauda cu sapte nominalizari fiecare, Drake si Daft Punk bifeaza cinci nominalizari fiecare, iar Bruno Mars, Taylor Swift si Lorde se mandresc cu cate patru nominalizari fiecare.
Asa cum bine se stie, cele mai ravnite categorii de la Grammy Awards sunt Record Of The Year si Album Of The Year. La categoria din urma au fost nominalizati Sara Bareilles cu ”The Blessed Unrest”, Daft Punk cu ”Random Access Memories”, Kendrick Lamar cu ”good kid, m.A.A.d city”, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis cu ”The Heist” si Taylor Swift cu ”Red”.
Record Of The Year are sanse sa fie obtinut de Daft Punk cu ”Get Lucky”, Imagine Dragons cu ”Radioactive”, Lorde cu ”Royals”, Bruno Mars cu ”Locked Out Of Heaven” sau Robin Thicke cu ”Blurred Lines”.
De asemenea, si categoria Song Of The Year sta la loc de cinste in preferintele artistilor in materie de trofeu acesta putand ajunge la Pink cu ”Just Give Me A Reason”, Bruno Mars cu ”Locked Out Of Heaven”, Katy Perry cu ”Roar”, Lorde cu ”Royals” sau Macklemore & Ryan Lewis cu ”Same Love”.
