Chapter 1525 Grammy Awards (5)
The award for Best Rock Album was won by Red Peppers again. With their rock album "stadium-arcadium", this also shows that this rock album is indeed very strong. The guest awarded the award for Best Rock Album was former US President Gore. When he came on stage to present the award, there was a gusto of enthusiasm in the audience. The documentary "an-inconvenient-truth" that focused on global warming was nominated for this year's Oscar.
At this point, all awards in the rock music category have been awarded. The most prominent performance in this category is the Red Peppers Band, which won two awards: Best Rock Band/Combination and Best Rock Album. In addition, Bob Dylan won the Best Rock Singer, MRjin won the Best Rock Song, and Slayer won the Best Hard Rock Performance, which is also quite eye-catching.

Alternative music category.
There is only one award in this category, that is, the Best Alternative Music Album, which was won by Gnarls-barkley for the album "st.elsewhere".
Niles Barkley, this is not a name, but the name of a British duo. The two members are music producer Danger Mouse and black rapper Cee-lo. This group started out on the Internet and became popular online. Therefore, to put it simply, Niles Barkley is an online singer in European and American countries.
In 2006, Niles Barkley's song "crazy" was very popular online, easily becoming the sales champion of British pop music rankings at that time. It became the first singer in the world to top the singles chart No.1 without even a record, and at the same time symbolized that an Internet music revolution officially began. Rolling Stone magazine commented on the song: "If MRjin did not release an amazing "viva-la-vida" in 2006, then the best single of the year would be the song "crazy".
The song "crazy" covers hip-hop, funky, dance and other elements in just 3 minutes. The black rapper Cee-lo's interpretation is full of spiritual songs. Kim Jingcheng personally likes this song very much. He was amazed when he first heard this song in his previous life. As far as Kim Jingcheng knows, Niles Barkley's black rapper Cee-lo will become the mentor of "The Voice of America" in the future.
This time Niles Barkley won the best alternative music album at the Grammy, which shows that the Grammy, the most mainstream music awards ceremony, does not exclude online singers, and it also shows that Niles Barkley has gone from non-mainstream to mainstream in just one year.
...
R&B music category.
This is another big category, including eight awards: Best R&B female singer, Best R&B male singer, Best R&B band/group, Best traditional R&B singer, Best city/alternative singer, Best R&B song, Best R&B album, and Best contemporary R&B album.
The big hit in this category is Mary Blige. Senior R&B singer Mary Blige has been shortlisted for seven awards in the Grammy this time, most of which are in this category.
Mary Blige did not disappoint everyone and eventually won two awards: Best R&B female singer and Best R&B album.
Mary Blige prepared eight award speeches for the Grammy Awards tonight. She burst into tears and was excited when she came to the stage to receive the award twice. She said a lot of prepared award speeches, announcing that she had finally bid farewell to the accused stage and was loved and supported by fans. Unexpectedly, when Mary Blige stepped down, she found that she had made a fatal mistake, that is, to forget to thank Andrew Harrell, a senior musician who discovered her.
Andrew Harrell is a senior musician and an important leader in hip-hop. He discovered Mary Blige. He went to Mary Blige's house to find her in person and said to her when she was most disappointed: "One day, you will sing in front of the king and the queen." At that time, Mary Blige was only 17 years old. Andrew Harrell was indeed Mary Blige's benefactor. He hired many people to pack, train, and train Mary Blige, including training her way of speaking, walking, and clothes she wore. It can be said that Andrew Harrell successfully shaped Mary Blige today.
However, tonight, Mary Blige came on stage twice to give her awards, but she forgot to thank Andrew Harrell. This mistake was really fatal. Someone comforted her with a joke and said: "At least you also thanked your husband Kendu Isax. Thinking about the Oscar winner Hillary Swank forgot to thank his husband, and broke up with her husband soon after. Reese Witherspoon also announced his divorce shortly after winning the award. From this point of view, at least your marriage should be worry-free."
What surprised Jin Jingcheng was that this time he won the best r&b song tropics trophy for the song "ships-in-the-night" in "mrjin-no.1"!
"It's like a ship walking at night, and you and I pass by each other. If you continue like this, you will only waste the years. Why bother to worry about who is right and who is wrong? If you ride the wind and waves and sail towards the sea, if it's just you and me, trying to find a ray of light, it's like a ship walking at night..." Jin Jingcheng didn't expect that this ship could actually carry a Grammy trophy with the best R&B song.
This is indeed an unexpected surprise, because the popular candidate for the best R&B song is Mary Blige, but it is reasonable, because "ships-in-the-night" is indeed a rhythm and blues song. Although this song was only listed as the ninth song in "mrjin-no.1" by Kim Jong-Sheng when it was released, this song has become a classic among rhythm and blues songs, and has made some innovations based on rhythm and blues.
Niles Barkley won the Best City/Alternative Singer for his online hit song "crazy". This is the second award they won tonight, and the other award is the Best Alternative Music Album.
John Legend only won the Best R&B male singer, which is not good for John Legend, because he was the winner of the Best Newcomer Award at last year's Grammy Awards.
The more miserable one is the big-name queen Beyoncé, who once had an infinite glory. This time, she only won the Best Contemporary R&B Album Award in the R&B category, which she is best at, which makes people sigh that a new generation has replaced the old one.
...
Rap category.
The most powerful category is t.i..
t.i., born in Georgia, USA in 1980, is a rapper and actor. He has not won the Grammy Awards since his debut in 2001. This time, he went to the Grammy again with his fourth album "King", released last year, which has attracted a lot of attention.
This time, T.i. finally achieved his best rapper, and also won the best rapper collaboration with "my-love" sang with Justin Timberlake. T.i. is still the arrogant hip-hop rap hardcore. Although it has been a bit tortuous along the way, hard work pays off. His sharp and artistic creative talent finally helped his career to a higher level.
