Allize Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Why do people care about this? I understand it from the spectacle perspective. But what's the relevance of a meaningless statuette being awarded to someone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nebraska Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 But what's the relevance of a meaningless statuette being awarded to someone? boosts ego, serves as a reminder that peers acknowledge and appreciate your existence, adds color to resume. personally, i don't see anything bad about winning a grammy- except knowing it's more about popularity than talent, but if anyone handed me a grammy i wouldn't give it back like milli vanilli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allize Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Precisely, it's because it is based on popularity and power games that it is meaningless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebraska Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Precisely, it's because it is based on popularity and power games that it is meaningless. i don't think it's meaningless though. also, i don't think things being based on popularity and power games make them meaningless because music is also a business with that said, i just realized i've never heard anything by macklemore & ryan lewis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmanyo Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 im complaining because i was forced to watch them. i usually try to avoid anything about them. side note i have a friend who looks exactly like macklemore and he happens to be a former member of attack! attack!, he has his hair cut like macklemore now. and yeah hes the crabcore guy. im supposed to go over to his house and teach him how to use synths at some point. edit: changed 2 better vid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peace 7 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 It's a different time, a different time..... now. ...adayz. ...a different time. Imagine if Grammys were given out to just composers of music and not performers. Imagine that! Granted performance is also an art, but imagine if it focused on the creation of the music as a whole and was about musical awesomeness.... Imagine a world where- nah whatever. Fucking Grammys. Bah. That being said, if I won a Grammy for some musical randomness, that would be pretty good. Would look great on my CV when applying to flip burgers to suicide in the deep fryer. Nah but, it would feel good, because it might mean that many a thousands to millions, were given enjoyment through my musics. Still, such an award implies too much (like actual talent) and serves the darker side of humanity by awarding implications of greatness, instead of anything with substance. Buuuuuuut I'm sure awesome people do win Grammys. But when I think of some group like oooooh I dunno, Black Eyed Peas, I think, "I WANT TO KATANA MY OWN FACE, THIS MUSIC WORLD IS FUCKED-- KATANA IN MY FACE." What is the point of having any sense, in a world that is based on senselessness? Fuck, yo. IDM SHALL OVERCOME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshuatxuk Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 lol (@grammys) i had to watch the entire thing for my history of rock n roll class im still fucking watch it please kill me What a godawful assignment! I minored in music history at UT, I have to say that the most lackluster class was the "history of rock n' roll" course. Lot of really terrible students who just wanted a gimmicky course. We didn't have to watch the Grammys though :/ Pharrell has made so many good beats I don't think I can hate him. Yeah I like Pharrell a lot, he's low-key, talented, sincere. He's like the 2000s equivalent to Quincy Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmanyo Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 The teacher for this class is really cool, too. Not sure what point he's trying to make. Him and I have been talking about trying to start a max/msp class one semester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
