"Nice try Lorde, why don't you try to make a Bruno Mars album with 14 songwriters next time?"

it's not Neil's fault that Adele and Taylor didn't release albums that qualified for this year's awards show

So, like, why is Bruno Mars as popular as he is? I don't know a single person who is a fan of his.

Out of the 203 critic lists Metacritic aggregated in 2016, 24K Magic made it onto the top 10 lists of AOL, AP, Idolator and People

Bruno Mars is very inoffensive
I can see why Grammy voters like him
I don’t hate his music, but I wouldn’t call myself a fan

Personally I think the dumbest thing of the whole night was Jay-Z going 0-8, but at the same time, he's Jay-Z |

There's worse music that could be re-packaged and sold as something new. I don't mind Bruno Mars.

I’d pay $15 to see Bruno Mars and another $15 if the words “Uptown Funk” don’t ever exit his mouth

I've never cared about the Grammys because it's the worst major award show but it is funny that they nominated four decent to good albums (very rarely happens) and they picked the one bad album they nominated over them

This is an absolutely insane statement. Not only did the females nominated in the major categories not win, they didn't even offer the female AOTY nominee her own performing spot (which they gave to all the male nominees). |

Agreed. I can't think of a clearer statement of irrelevance.

For real. Like, even if you are a misogynist asshole it would've been so so easy to NOT release a statement confirming it.

Agreed. I can't think of a clearer statement of irrelevance. One of my favorite traditions around Grammy time is going through the winners for album of the year and realizing how often and how consistently this organization manages to be terrible at picking the winner. Why is this still a thing? |

They scrolled through it so fast it was impossible to keep up with who was and wasn't included.
