Music: Why you shouldn't care what they say at the Grammy Awards


So, the Grammy Awards. A statue of a phonograph. Recognition to your peers in the music industry. That no one cares about.

It is nice to be recognized by someone for what you have worked hard to accomplish. But, the Grammy Awards are a shame of an award system that is less reputable than selecting the homecoming court in high school.

And to exemplify this, check out this article I found today listing one reviewers opinion of the 7 worst Grammy Award upsets.

I don't know if their importance is determined by the excellence of the talent that should have won, or the massive amount of suck of the actual winner, or even the difference between the nominees; but I would have ranked Nirvana's upset higher. Especially after looking at that goofy picture of Clapton in the article. He looks like a history professor from an early 80's movie.

But, that's my opinion on these upsets. The article, however, will let you see just how ridiculous it is to give any credit to these awards.
