GRAMMY Gossip
posted in: Music News
Last week, the 2012 GRAMMY Nominees album was released digitally and in stores with twenty-two classic hits from the past year. As we get closer to February 12 telecast, the anticipation has gotten us all on the soapbox. This morning, I caught the OurStage staff gossiping over coffee about their predicted winners of various categories. Here’s what they had to say…
Rebecca– I think Nicki Minaj will win Best New Artist because I’m still not sick of Super Bass.
Scott– Who will win Record of the Year? I haven’t heard those other records in full… so I’m going to go with Adele.
Milo– For Song of the Year? I’ll be going with um… Adele.
Jordan– Adele will definitely win Album of the Year. By the time she’s done riding that album just about every song will have been a smash hit.
Ashley– “Seriously though, I never heard of this Skrillex fellow until I started here and now every time I turn around I see that name.”
Kristin– “Guy… you just sounded like “nana”.”
Jordan– Why is the Hard Rock/Metal performance category always so hilariously bad? Sum 41? Are they for real? Foo Figters are also in there, which is less embarrassing, but still not optimal.
Wake– Skrillex owns us all.”
Jordan– “WOMP WOMP… WUB WUB WUB WUB… WOMP SCREEEEEEEECH WUB WUB… WOOOMP.”
Martin– “The new generational divide: dubstep.”
So there you have it folks, the OurStage staff seems pretty confident that Adele and Skrillex will bring home a GRAMMY…or more. Adele’s talent has gotten her six nominations in total and Skrillex’s impressive two year career has completely set the trend for dubstep in America. Now it’s time to ask you, who do you think is going to bring home a GRAMMY? Leave your comments below…
