The Grammys = the old guard / old media propping up their puppets trying to convince the outside world (and each other) they’re relevant.
-Trent Reznor
Trent posted this on his twitter account when he was at the Grammy Awards and I 100% agree with this. I never cared about the Grammys but my interest was sparked a bit when they added the category Best Electronic/Dance Album. I am happy that Basement Jaxx and The Chemical Brothers won in the past but look at the rest of the nominations with live albums and compilations. What the hell is this shit.
To say the Grammys are a reflection of music today is akin to saying what airs on NBC defines America. It doesn’t.
