Everyone needs to take a good look at these categories and take a mental note -- since these categories are not going to be televised . . . you need to know who the winners were up against since you are not going to be able to get a chance to see it.

I have a million comments...but I'll only state a few
1. Yay for Anthony Hamilton, Floetry, Outkast, Ruben, Roy Hargrove and Pharrell
2. Um, arent the LL and Em songs like so 2 years ago??
3. Ok, why does it feel like they sneaked in Kelis and Musiq (love Milkshake though)
4. Again, maybe it's me, but I didn't know MC Lyte had a song out this year
5. The Grammy's never fail to disappoint me. Every year, Queen Latifah or Will Smith will be nominated in the rap category

According to TJMS (from Blackamericaweb.com) Luther is scheduled to appear at the awards show. Supposedly, he is shopping for tuxedos.

Super Bowl Episode Prompts CBS to Heighten Safeguards for Grammys
17 minutes ago Add Top Stories - Los Angeles Times to My Yahoo!
By Randy Lewis and Elizabeth Jensen Times Staff Writers
Stung by outrage over Janet Jackson's breast-flashing episode during Sunday's Super Bowl, CBS said Tuesday that it would use an "enhanced delay" during its Sunday telecast of the Grammy Awards so that any "inappropriate" audio or video could be cut before reaching viewers.

SEE...ttbs*(that's that bullsh*t). I can't believe that the NARAS is going to allow themselves to be censored in any way. Talk about your generalizations and stereotypes...

I was watching ET (Entertainment Tonight) last night and the host said that Luther will not be attending Sunday's ceremony.
It was also said that NARAS or the FCC (I forgot who) will be looking to have Janet and Justin banned from the ceremony.
*shaking my head* This has become nothing but a witchhunt. (sigh)

HC i was sad when 50 went up on the stage with those best new artists of the year (why black folk always gotta show out?)
HC Farnsworth Bentley was off the chain with that umbrella?
HC I was kind of happy Christina got a grammy though she looked a hot a$$ mess and I didn't like the Janet Jackson comment?
HC Beyonce looked so pretty on her Dangerously In Love song?
