Tonight, Sunday February 10th, is the night the Grammy's air on CBS.
It's also the night that I got in a disagreement with my dear friend William over bands and musicians nominated.
I'm a big fan of the Format, but I don't really like FUN. Not even because Nate Ruess was in both bands. I simply don't find FUN's songs to be all that good. It's just not something I like. But then he brought up the question of: do Grammy awards and nominations mean nothing? They're there for a reason.
It got me thinking... how many artists and songs are nominated that actually aren't all that good? They're popular because they're catchy and they're on the radio. For one, Call Me Maybe, is terrible (in my opinion). It's not good music. It's good radio music.
So... does a Grammy nomination or win actually make an artist good?
I say no.
