    It's not NaS's fault the grammy's don't know what they are doing. He should of had a grammy a long time ago. 50 cent also had 12 nominations before his 1st win. Majority of the time the grammy's get it wrong than right when it comes to Hip Hop. Show on right now on CBS.

    Eminem- Love The Way You lie

    Cee Lo- ? You

    Well let's see who walks away with Victories tonight. I will update the full list after tonights show. I'm still pretty hot they did not nominate "Distant Relatives" for anything, that's just wrong on so many levels. NaS will still have 12 nominations with no wins. Sad. He's the Scorcese of Hip Hop so he will finally get his win eventually.

    It's hilarious that ppl actually believe these awards are real, like they give these artist awards for great work. It's business ya fools. But i know what y'all gon' say.."say what you want but everybody wants a Grammy" lol. ? ' weenies. All these award shows are phony as far as the awards go.

    DMX once was supposed to get a Grammy but because he refused to do certain ? and dipped they gave it to Nelly..go figure.

    But i always look forward to performances.

    Yes, we all know these award shows are mostly set up and only given to the artist who sale the most. But sometimes they do honor some of the underdogs. I'm not shocked Eminem and Jay Z have the most Hip Hop Nominations, they had 2 of the biggest songs of the year any genre with "Love the Way You Lie" and "Empire State of Mind'. NaS dropped the ball not being on "Empire", it would of been his 1st #1 hit and also probably his 1st grammy as that song is a lock to win tonight. Eminem and Jay are atleast walking away with 2 or 3 grammy's apiece tonight. Drake got 4 nominations but has tough competition in all catagories. B.O.B. looks like he could walk away with atleast 1 as "Nothing on You" was such a big hit.

    Overall it's a popularity contest but from a Hip Hop standpoint they don't matter, remember we didn't get reconized until the late 80's and even then they gave the 1st Hip Hop Grammy to one of the most pop oriented rap albums at that time, "He's the DJ and I'm The Rapper", don't get me wrong, I love that album and it's a Classic and Will was G for boycotting the grammy's but that was the not the best rap album of 1988. Tupac nor Biggie ever got a grammy, discraceful. NaS having 12 nominations and no wins, horrible.

    Eminem for album of the year! Even if you don't like eminem, a hiphop act winning this category is rare. Root for him
