So do you all think Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole are pop stars?

No

Kendrick is amazing, I would classify him as a great rap artist not a pop star. I mean you can call him a rap star, but that just sounds weird

So do you all think Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole are pop stars?

No I don't. Pop is a genre and they don't make pop music.

No, I don't. Kendrick is a rapper, not a pop singer.

Lol where??

I'll say that performance is not what I expected because Intel was legit promising something out of this world. There were 0.00 out of this world things in that tribute, even though the beginning was pretty sick. She was turning it out (one too many twirls though girl) but there were too many songs in too short a time and no emotional culmination at the end. Heroes could have been slowed down or something, but instead it went by so quickly that it felt like a kitschy parody.

Maybe I'll change my mind about it if I watch it again tho

You know, looking that performance again and now without being pressed and bothered by the tragicness of all the show I guess that my main problem is that it was too many songs and too little time for each one and that's why I said that the B.B. King tribute was way better because it was focused and you FELT the passion behind it while the one with Lady Gaga was, imho, a little forced and fakey and each song was given so little time.

Also, did she performed any song from Blackstar? Because I think she didn't or at least she didn't reached that part by the time I went to take a drink x_X

I do agree with you sis that most likely the dissapointment lies more on the marketing leading up to this thing than the performance and the hyping from some stanbases.

Most likely that he got popular and that he has appeared as a feature in some pop songs.

Some people do the absolute mosT

No

Thanks for all the feedback. I'll stop cluttering up ya'lls thread with my debate. Thanks again!

I just watched Gwen's video since I couldn't last night... it was cute. I liked the song and when the her body double fell omg I thought it was really her lol. Glad to see it wasn't the case.

The slay that got away.

 

[Soulscribe]

The slay that got away.

It's a Rihanna performance though, so really it would have been a slay on paper but a struggle in practice.

The Gaga tribute impressed me more after another watch, honestly taking away the context with Intel's major promises it was still a great tribute to a long legacy. Should have been longer and more emotional considering Bowie's influence, but let's be real: No one singer (let alone a female pop star) can shoulder an entire Bowie tribute and please everyone. His legacy is just too big. That said though, she's really the only contemporary pop star who could have pulled that off.

Hyperbole even before the album is released, or even before listening a single second of it, good grief...

It was competitive in those days plus Grammy weren't a joke back then. Taylor wouldn't even gotten nominate back then.

That doesn't surprise me. No one cares except for a few loud mouths on Twitter.

LG5 will slay and once award season is over the countdown begins until Single No.1

Thoughts on Imogen Heap being an AOTY winner now?

 

[<+)O Robido O(+>]

Are you ready for the touch that makes you go insane
From breast to lips to cheek to mane
I'll pull your hair, you'll feel no pain
Are you ready for the only forever we'll both obtain
The only joy in this forsaken game
You'll feel ashamed and ordained
When I lay my hands on you

I actually kinda liked Gaga's Bowie tribute. Intel and her are stupid for not using that room with all the screens as walls and floors tho. They could've made it look like she's flying through space or some shit in there.
This lewk from her Intel commerical is also kinda great:

Sometimes a mod will change it if you PM them a good reason why.

What I don't understand about the Grammys:

Why was an album from 2014 nominated for a 2016 album of the year award?

There's a Grammy nomination window that's pretty weird (Oct 2014 to sept 2015). 1989 was released on oct 2014 so it was eligible for the 2015 category. The Grammys for this year was for the 2015 nomination window.

Rihanna's last few grammy performances have been quite good though, unlike whatever Gaga was trying to do last night.

I was banned during the Unapologeticide.

I was banned for posting Rih-bewbs.

I was also once banned for calling Rob Kardashian a fat, lazy, piece of shit pigfucking cunt whose only contribution to this planet was wearing the right pair of pants on the morning these photos were taken:

Even then, I think being banned over the fucking Vita would be the biggest indignity of all.

poor the pitster, hope his flop faves have more longevity than he did~
