Judging from the partial submissions for the 2012 Grammys its a no brainer that it wil lbe dominated by Drake, Nicki Minaj, Kanye, Beyonce and Rhianna.I also expect to see big wins from artists like Chris Brown, Adele and Kelly Rowland. These artists had great chart topping hits so the competition will be fierce. In my opinion I would love to see Kelly Rowland-Motivation win for “Song of the Year” and Beyonce’s “:4” win for album of the year! We shall see.
if Tyler the Creator wins, the Grammy Awards should and would lose all respect.
This next year Grammys will be sooo good I know this will exciting to see who will bring home most Grammys
DRAKE EMINEM BEYONCE CHRIS BROWN TAKIN EVERYTHING HOME
SORRY BUT LIL WAYNE WILL BE THE ALBUM OF THE YEAR. HE’S NOT MY FAVORITE THOUGH
Really Sorry But Chris brown will be snobbed once more becuz oe Kelly Rowland’s “Motivation
Adele Will Win Great GAga get rest
Christina aguilera can get home with bound to you as sound track in mtion picture awarded ab the burlesque album
FAme can win an awards
for beynce am not really sure if not run the world for best short form video but rolling in the deep is already the record of the year!!
we all know that jay and kanye cool winner
You really think Tha Carter IV will get album of the year????????? HAHAHAHA Sells don’t mean anything you fools! Its quality over quantity at the Grammys! Tha Carter IV was a shitty mess, even Wayne admitted he wasn’t happy with the production on the album. YM fans are so brain washed its ridiculous.
Im so Glad Kelly Rowland got Nominated this would give her a total of 6..I wanna see Rihanna take home a few aswell….I dont see why Beyonce has so many nominations….Chris Brown needs to win aswell
