February 7, 20232 yr Author I'm willing to say there's no person that has stepped foot in a bar, between the ages of 40 and 50, that doesn't know several Beyonce songs. I’m not in that range but have been in many bars. I’m not saying I wouldn’t recognize her songs, but other than single ladies I don’t think I would know any of them were her. I’m not saying it’s bad, just saying her type of music has never been anything I’ve paid attention to or sought out. Not intended to be a brag or shock value, just a statement.
February 7, 20232 yr I just went through the top 10 songs on Beyoncé’s Spotify page and I don’t recognize any of them. None of them are particularly interesting or memorable. Just bland corporate music written by a committee. Pretty sure it’s America’s taste that sucks and not mine.
February 7, 20232 yr Author Just bland corporate music written by a committee. Pretty sure it’s America’s taste that sucks and not mine. Truth.Pretty soon it’s all going to be written by AI though I doubt there will be much difference.

February 7, 20232 yr Interesting chart. I guess all the disco of the mid- to late-70's is "soul" on this graph(?).

I don’t believe that “R&B” and “Soul” have ever been seen together at the same time. I believe that “R&B/Soul” is the way that that color chart should be labeled. Also, how nice was the second half of the ‘80s, when country virtually disappeared from the charts?
February 7, 20232 yr The Grammys drew in 12.4 million viewers. That’s 30% more than last year and the biggest audience the award show has gotten since 2020.
February 7, 20232 yr I was almost asleep while my wife had that shit on in background and I heard, "I was inspired by John Prine" . I heard the twitterverse blew up with folks pissed that Bonnie Raitt won Fuck them.

February 3Feb 3 Kanye and his love slave showed up like this. Then were promptly escorted out because they weren’t invited. Quote
February 3Feb 3 Kanye making a mockery of an awards show where he's one of the all-time record holders is phenomenal. Fuck the Grammys.
February 3Feb 3 Courtney LaPlante was interviewed, and the reporter called her Poppy, so she finished out the interview as Poppy.

February 3Feb 3 Lainey Wilson singing let the good times roll during a tribute to Quincy Jones may be the lowest point in the history of music

The Grammys are unwatchable.
February 3Feb 3 They let Will Smith back at awards shows I guess. Kanye’s lady looks like real life sex doll.

February 3Feb 3 Just now, mdmost said: A song calling Drake a pedophile just won Record of the Year. And Mrs. Jay Z clapped for it I’m gonna just say that Shakira is a million time finer and mor talented than J-Lo isn’t

February 3Feb 3 Author Well Will Smith has the number one most important currency in today’s world: people talk about him. So yea, let’s work him into the show.Same as the broad that showed up in the clear shower curtain dress a few posts up.

My guess is that you will see him in a film in 3 years, if not sooner. This is the first stop on the Will Smith comeback tour, because he is an international film star and the international film going audience is fairly racist, so when you have a bankable actor who is pre-approved, you want to continue making bank while you can. Slapping Chris Rock is nothing compared to some of the stuff we have seen in [take that shit to the CR] “other parts of society”, so get over the slap. He’s coming back.

February 3Feb 3 I never watch that shit. Do the cameras keep showing football players up in some VIP booth? It would seem fitting.
February 3Feb 3 I will never understand why people click on shit that doesn’t interest them. Fuck the Eagles & Chiefs, yet I’ll read the thread & post. Fuck the Grammys, yet I’ll make sure everyone knows I hate it. Y’all some sad fucks.

February 3Feb 3 Point proven. I will never, ever fuck up a music thread just to tell people how much I hate said thread. Not once.
February 3Feb 3 I guess I'm totally out of touch. Kendrick Lamar, Song of the Year? What a crap song. Just my opinion.

That song is great, has a catchy tune, and has parts people love to sing as evidence by the entire arena singing "a minor" when he was walking up to accept the award.
February 3Feb 3 Author I think it’s reasonable for someone who likes music to tune into the biggest music awards show.Every time I do I get reminded of how much I’m not the target market for the popular music of today. Such is life I guess. One think I know for sure though is that Beyoncé record was not the best country record of the year.
