Chapter 250: The Curse of the Best Newcomer

"The winner of this year's Grammy Awards for Best Newcomer is...Lin Xia!!!"

After the host said these words, Lin Xia came to the stage under the gaze of everyone.

After the host announced that Lin Xia won the Best Newcomer Award this time, the singers in the audience also gave Lin Xia fierce applause.

Of course, the faces of the singers sitting next to Lin Xia who were not nominated together with Lin Xia were not particularly good-looking at this time.

However, Lin Xia can understand. After all, these people may be nominated for the Grammy Awards for the first time like herself. Even for them, this may be their last time to be nominated for the Grammy Awards.

It is a pity for them not to be able to successfully win the award.

And for them, this may be their only chance to win a Grammy Award, so it is normal for them to look ugly.

And what they missed this time was the Grammy Award for Best Newcomer. This may be a lifelong regret for them. Naturally, they failed to win this award and couldn't manage the expressions on their faces well, which is normal.

.

You must know that the Grammy Award for Best New Artist (the Grammy Award for Best) is an award awarded in the Grammy Awards to newcomers in the music industry who have achieved outstanding achievements in the previous year. It is awarded every year except 1967.

The Grammy Awards are the largest awards in the American music industry and are awarded by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences. The awards are voted on by professionals from the academy.

It is self-evident how high the status of the Grammy Awards is now in the world.

"Best New Artist", "Production of the Year", "Song of the Year", and "Album of the Year" are regarded as the four most important "general category" awards of the Grammy Awards.

Missing such an award will indeed become a lifelong regret for the singer, but winning this award may be the beginning of the singer's global rise.

Now Lin Xia, and several other singers nominated together, naturally have two completely different mentality.

The Grammy Awards' requirements for selecting the best new artist are: "The artist releases a work within the valid qualification period and obtains public recognition for the first time." There are complex rules for the specific criteria for "new artist".

Lin Xia is also one of the singers who best meets the requirements for newcomers.

On the stage, after giving a more official acceptance speech in Chinese, she walked off the stage with a smile. Compared with other singers, Lin Xia does not like to make too many speeches at award ceremonies.

However, after Lin Xia walked off the stage, many people still applauded.

But Lin Xia always felt that she seemed to see regretful looks in the eyes of the long-obsessed singers in the middle area, and Lin Xia didn't know why they showed such looks.

After the Best New Artist Award is presented, the next few awards are the most important Grammy Awards, including Best Album of the Year, Best Single of the Year, and the most important Grammy Award.

Lin Xia was also below the stage, watching the awards being announced.

After these awards were announced, the next step was to enter the interview session, which was also conducted by the reporters present at the venue, but not at the award ceremony.

Instead, it is in front of the huge signature wall outside. In front of that wall, a group of people are walking from the inside out. If a reporter is interested in you, they will stop you for an interview.

As the winner of the Best Newcomer and the first Grammy Award winner from China, Lin Xia naturally had many reporters wanting to interview him.

The moment Lin Xia walked out, she was almost surrounded by reporters. The questions these reporters asked her made Lin Xia feel very strange. It didn't feel like a serious interview.

All I am asking myself is, after winning the Grammy Newcomer Award this time, will I also fall under the spell of the Grammy Newcomer Award?

After hearing what the reporter said, Lin Xia seemed to feel a little bit. Why did the singers sitting in the middle look at her with regret? But what is the curse of this Best Newcomer Award? She really is

I didn’t know much about it.

During the interview, after Lin Xia talked about her feelings, it probably took more than an hour before she returned to the hotel and ended the Grammy Awards ceremony.

The first time she returned to the hotel, Lin Xia also took a look at Mo Zou, who won the Grammy Newcomer Award, and what it meant.

It turns out that from the Ters, Natalie Cole in the 1970s, Diuper and Sade in the 1980s, Mariah Carey, Sheryl Crow, Uilera, John Legend in the 1990s, to Adele and Sam Smith in the last ten years, they are all getting the most awards.

After winning the Best Newcomer Award, he quickly became a superstar in the music industry.

But the Best Newcomer Award also has a "curse".

For example, in the 2011 Grammy Award for Best Newcomer, he defeated justin bieber, drake, florehe mae, and mumford.

Sons, the popular female jazz musician who won the award, Esperanza Spalding, had released two albums before winning the award, and has already attracted attention in the jazz circle.

Her Grammy nomination and award suddenly brought her to the global media and music fans, and her unexpected win was even more shocking.

After winning the award, she released four more albums one after another, which did not cause the same sensation in the mainstream music scene as the award ceremony. Therefore, she is considered the latest representative of the "curse".

Another category of musicians who cannot be classified as "cursed" are those who switch music fields after winning awards and voluntarily leave the mainstream media's field of view.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After winning the award, they continued to develop in the mainstream music scene but failed to produce any more masterpieces. Some of the musicians and bands who failed to continue to win the award only released one or two albums long afterward, and some

The band even disbanded within a few years, definitely suffering from the "curse"!

This is also the most popular artist related to this Grammy Award curse in the world right now, that is, band singers.

At the 1977 Grammy Awards, Stand Vod, a four-piece rock band from Washington, won the Best New Artist award over the Boston band, which had excellent reputation and sales.

In the same year, their debut album "Stand Vod" produced a popular hit "After", which won the number one spot on the US singles chart and helped them win two Grammy Awards for Best Newcomer and Best Vocal Arrangement.

After winning the award, the band released their second album "Rear View Mirror" in the same year, but its performance dropped sharply. Although it entered the Billboard 200 album chart, it only stayed on the Billboard 200 album chart for 13 weeks, peaking at No. 104.

The following three albums did not enter the top 200 of the album chart. Just like abba, two couples divorced one after another, and the band was unable to survive and disbanded in 1981.

Men at Work is an Australian rock band formed in 1978. Lead singer Hay is the core figure.

Their famous song is "Down Under" in 1981, which describes the interesting experiences of an Australian traveling around the world.

The song first became popular in Australia, and later topped the American Billboard Hot 100 in 1983, and helped Men At Work win the Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 1983. The most popular winners of that year were American actresses Jennifer Holliday and

Asia, a new all-star band formed by several rock veterans.

After winning the Grammy Award, the record company re-released Men At Work's first single "Who It Be Now?" previously released in Australia in North America and won the Billboard Hot 100 title.

In 1983, the band also took advantage of the momentum and released a new album cargo, which also achieved good results. The band also held a world tour.

The success in the North American market intensified the long-standing conflicts within the band. Drummer Jerry Speiser and lead singer Hay had a complete quarrel and quit the band. The band recorded a new album with temporary members, but the result was a failure in both the charts and critics.

.

Keyboardist Greg Ham quit the band's tour again, and they relied on temporary musicians to continue performing in 1985. They officially disbanded in 1986, and Hay pursued personal development.

Moreover, because of this sword incident, this band became the only winner in history to be expelled from the Grammy Awards.

Milli Vanilli is a duo founded in 1988 by German music producer Frank Farian, consisting of Fab Morvan and Rob Ptus.

They first became popular in Germany and Europe, and then won the Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 1990 with their debut album "Girl You Know It's True" released in the United States.

But later, singer Charles Shaw broke the news that the songs in the album were all sung by him and two other singers, and Morvan and Ptus were just lip-syncing. This became an explosive scandal in the music industry that year, and their Grammy trophy was withdrawn.

Later, fab morvan and rob ptus moved to Los Angeles and signed a new agent to rob

Record a new album under the name fab and try to make a comeback.

But the impact of the scandal was too great and long-lasting. The songs rarely received radio attention and the album sold only 2,000 copies. In 1997, producer Frank Farian agreed to recreate Milli Vanilli using the two's real voices. In 1998, the album Ba Attack was released.

Rob Ptus was addicted to drugs due to the extreme psychological pressure he endured all year round. He was sentenced to six months in prison in California. On April 2, 1998, while promoting his album in Europe, he was found dead in a hotel in Frankfurt, Germany.

In the room, the cause of death may be an overdose of alcohol and drugs. He was only 32 years old.

The Best Newcomer Award is Geegory, and the nominated artists are regardless of music genre.

During the awards process, once a relatively niche singer defeats a popular or popular star, people will have more expectations for him. Who knows that some people would rather stay in a small house and deliberately keep a distance from the spotlight of the hall. In 1992

The award-winning Mar is an American country folk musician who was born in 1959 and is 60 years old this year.

At first, he mainly appeared as a composer. In 1989, he played the piano on Tra's excellent album Crossroads.

In 1991, his debut album "Mar" was a success. The single "Walking in Memphis" recorded his inspiration and insights as a Jew listening to gospel music in churches in Memphis.

Although the song only peaked at No. 13 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, it helped him win three Grammy nominations for Song of the Year, Best Pop Singer, and Best New Artist the following year. In the end, he actually overpowered the mainstream music industry at the time.

The darling boyz ii men, seal and others won the best new artist award.

After winning the award, Mar became more closely connected with the mainstream music circle. In 1993, his second album The Rainy Season invited famous singers David Crosby, Graham Nash and Bo to collaborate. In the early 1990s, he also had many performance opportunities, including as a member of Bo

He participated in the tour as a warm-up guest. Later, he took a break from the music scene for several years for some reasons. When he released the album again in 1998, the response was even more mediocre.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! In 2005, Mar encountered an accident. On August 7, while participating in the tour of the famous folk singer Suzanne Vega, he encountered a robber in a parking lot in Denver.

, was shot in the head. The bullet first grazed the tour manager who was driving, and then hit mar in the head. Fortunately, after decelerating, the bullet did not cause serious injuries to his skull, although it was very close to his eyes. mar

During the treatment in the hospital, the doctor said it was a miracle and an absolute blessing among misfortunes. He was discharged from the hospital after about 8 hours, and the robber was later sentenced to 36 years in prison.

Pa Cole is one of the representatives who has fulfilled the "curse" of Grammy's best newcomer. This American pop rock female singer born in 1968 signed a contract with Warner Records in 1995, and her second album "This Fire" in 1997 was a success.

The song "where have all the cowboys gone?" is the album's first single and ranked 8th on the Billboard Hot Songs chart. At the 1998 Grammy Awards, Pa Cole received 4 nominations. This song was nominated for the annual production and

Song of the Year Award, and ultimately, she won the Best Newcomer Award.

After giving birth to her daughter, Pa Cole's career was temporarily suspended. After her comeback in 1999, she has released five more albums, but has failed to gain commercial and award recognition again.

The 2001 Grammy Best New Artist nominees were perhaps the most star-studded in the past 20 years. RB singers Jill Scott and Sisqo, rock band Papa Roach, and country singers Brad Paisley and Shelby Lynne were only half as popular. In the end, they were already

The 33-year-old "newcomer" Shelby Lynne won, although she has released 6 albums before.

Shelby Lynne debuted on Nashville's country music reality TV show in 1987 and released some singles one after another, but failed to reach the top 20 on the charts.

She changed record companies, but her commercial performance still failed to improve. In 1998, she moved to Palm Springs, California, and hired a new music producer and songwriter. After that, the album "I Am Shelby Lynne" made her debut in the mainstream music scene with a new look.

, because the music added a lot of pop rock and blues elements, it was played by more radio stations.

This album was first released in the UK in April 1999, and it would not be released in the United States until January 2000, so it was just in time for the 2001 Grammy Awards. The song "Dreamsome" in the album was selected by the popular movie Bridget Jones's Diary.

In 2001, Shelby Lynne wanted to take advantage of the Grammy popularity and hired popular producer Glen Bard (Nis Morissette, The O Doubt) to release the album Love, Shelby.

Unexpectedly, the album encountered more negative reviews and failed to enter the top 100 of the Billboard album chart. Later, she also served as a producer herself. As a result, she went off the beaten path, and her dark-themed works lacked response from fans and the market. In 2001,

Later, Shelby Lynne released 7 albums one after another, but it seemed that she could not find a music path that suited her better.

When Lin Xia saw this, she felt a chill rush through her.
