Local Radio Personality Weighs In On 2017 Grammy Awards

The 59th Annual GRAMMY Awards are just days away on CBS.

Artists from television and film have spoken out during the award season, most recently at the Golden Globes and SAG Awards.

While the world will undoubtedly tune in to catch the latest iteration of music’s biggest awards show, the Grammys have faced a lot of criticism as well. His series of carpool Karaoke, make the British comedian to ideal host for the Grammy Award Show 2017. No disrespect to anybody at any of the shows or the people running it.

“I feel like my peers tipped their hat to me”.

The official Grammy website will host a behind-the-scenes livestream during the ceremony featuring interviews and celebrity arrivals, for those who would rather watch off-screen action. Will Beyoncé or Adele make history?

“This seems to be one of those years where the Grammys don’t matter to anybody of effect”. Lady Gaga is also set to perform alongside Metallica, while Demi Lovato will surprise fans with her performance. Another thing to look forward to is the rumoured boycott of the Grammy Awards by several A-list artists including Drake and Justin Bieber who are said to be making a point about the show’s irrelevance and lack of diversity. But when they do, they hit up the Grammys (this will actually be their third time, following Grammy gigs in 2008 and 2014). What’s going on with Drake and J-Lo? I am sure very few of the artists up for awards have ever seen a real gramophone, the Grammy’s namesake.

In a media release, Hashim D’souza, Programming Head, English Entertainment, Viacom18, shared, “We are excited and proud to be the nation’s premier destination for global Pop culture, and with the Annual Grammy Awards we aim to reiterate our stand as India’s go-to destination for worldwide music and entertainment”.

Here’s everything you need to know about the coveted ceremony. “Maybe it’s a bit of a silent protest”, he says. Who knows! And honestly, who cares – it’s such an insane pairing that it just might be the most essential can’t-miss moment of the night, apart from the album of the year victor reveal.

This year, Adele is nominated for five awards, including album, record and song of the year, so her 2017 Grammys experience is already looking more hopeful. Better late than never.

Some actors won Grammys, too: Don Cheadle picked up best compilation soundtrack for visual media for “Miles Ahead, ” where he is credited as a compilation producer, and Carol Burnett won the best spoken word album Grammy.

Polka star Alex Meixner, who was born in the Lehigh Valley and lived here much of his life, was nominated for Best Polka Album for his disc “Polka Freak Out” with Bubba Hernandez in 2008.
