Drake Has Choice Words For Macklemore

Image
GRAMMY robbers and all my fav GRAMMY award winning rapper Drake made his feelings VERY clear in the new issue of   Rolling Stone   hitting stands this Friday about how he felt about Macklemore publicly advertising his apology to Kendrick Lamar after he and Ryan Lewis ' snubbed him basically at this year's GRAMMYs. "that shit was wack as fuck."   "I was like, 'You won. Why are you posting your text message? Just chill. Take your W, and if you feel you didn't deserve it, go get better — make better music,'" he tells us. "It felt cheap. It didn't feel genuine. Why do that? Why feel guilt? You think those guys would pay homage to you if they won?" Drake notes that Grammy wins don't always go to the artist who made the  best  album. "This is how the world works: He made a brand of music that appealed to more people than me, Hov, Kanye and Kendrick. Whether people wanna say it's racial, or whether it'...

Rihanna Skips GRAMMYs But Attends Parties

Image
Rihanna was seen over the weekend attending various pre-GRAMMY parties, most notable Clive Davis ' annual pre-GRAMMY celebration and the Roc Nation Brunch, but the Barbadian beauty was absent from the GRAMMYs were she won an award for Best Contemporary Urban Album for UnApologetic . Making her GRAMY snub even more apparent the pop star hit up Greystone Manor after the awards show with Drake ... reportedly making it their second night out in a row.

GRAMMY Fashion Trends

Image
It was all about formal wear and metallics last nuight at the 56th annual GRAMMY Awards at the Staples Center in LA. I'm so surprised that the awards fashion  were so formal this year...even Madonna wore a tux. Madge needed that cane...

Taylor Swift Wore Her Good Wig To The GRAMMYs

That thing didn't budge one bit... BTW, Taylor was one of my favorite dressed last night going with the metallic trend.

33 Couples Wed At GRAMMYs During Macklemore Performance

Image
The big winners last night at the 56th annual GRAMMYs were Macklemore & Ryan Lewis who swept all four of the rap categories they were nominated for...don't wanna go there. Anywho, their performance last night was nothing short of extraordinary. During their performance of " Same Love " Queen Latifah officiated a rather large wedding of 33 couples who were gay and straight afterward having  Madonna song her hit " Open Your Heart ". I honestly liked this gesture but it just seems douchey now that  a few homophobic tweets have surfaced from the front man. And speaking of douchey check out what Macklemore posted to his Instagram account. My text to Kendrick after the show. He deserved best rap album... I'm honored and completely blown away to win anything much less 4 Grammys. But in that category, he should have won IMO. And that's taking nothing away from The Heist. Just giving GKMC it's proper respect.. With that being said, thank...

Beyonce and Jay Z Stun GRAMMY Audiences

Image
As anticipated Beyonce and Jay Z opened the 56th annual GRAMMY Awards show last night in LA. Beyonce was noticeably smaller than usual, probably due to brief vegan diet and dancing dayum near every night while on tour, but it was her raunchy performance not physique that had every one talking last night. I don't think I've ever watched an awards show that showed so little of the crowd during a live performance but Taylor Swift definitely got her typical thirsty cameo... And she seemed to never sit her ass down... Well maybe she stayed seated after this... Anywho, the crowd didn't seem that much into the performance until Jay came out to save the awkward silence. It seemed clear that Jay was trying to make Beyonce feel comfortable during and after her performance...as he should have. Bey had Jay up there all out of character jumping around all in the name of her honor. But she's Beyonce...so who cares!! And she looked stunning once ...

Jay Z and Justin Timberlake To Boycott GRAMMYs??

Image
According to Hits Daily Double the whispers are true... With the  Grammys  under two weeks away,  NARAS  head  Neil Portnow , executive producer  Ken Ehrlich  and CBS  EVP Specials, Music & Live Events  Jack Sussman  are doing everything possible to put together a great show. But absent from the talent lineup as of now are  Justin Timberlake  and  Jay Z , two of music’s biggest stars, who were snubbed in the major categories, and whose presence on the telecast is crucial in the team’s concerted effort to recover from last year’s ratings slump. CBS is in year two of a 10-year deal to televise the Grammys, shelling out a reported  $60m  annually for the rights—and the show’s ratings derive directly from the wattage of its combined star power. According to Timberlake insiders, JT has turned down the invitation to perform and isn’t likely to change his mind. First of all, Justin Timberlake has been gone ...

KENDRICK LAMAR: GRAMMY Best New Artist Nominee - 'A Day In The Life'

Image
As the GRAMMYs are fastly approaching the show is doing major promotions and reveals about what's in store for the 56th annual GRAMMYs set to air on CBS January 26. Check out Lamar as he discusses his seven nominations as well as his motivation during the GRAMMY's " A Day In The Life ". This is a prime example of true talent minus the smoke and mirrors. I truly believe this dude is as real as they come. No ass kissing,  simply a producer of great lyrical content. I'm banking on Kendrick taking the majority of his nods...yeah, I said it!!
