  15. Tim Lee VA Stand Up says:

    Jay-Z is smart for not getting nominated last year for BP3……leaves him very much relevant and his album relevant a whole year later.

  16. Post no billz says:

  17. breeeeathe says:

  22. blakep267 says:

  23. Tim Lee VA Stand Up says:

  24. Tim Lee VA Stand Up says:

  27. em says:

    James were u born with a dick in your mouth?? HATER. why is it the same people commenting do u got jobs or suming to do.

  28. Word says:

    But im glad Jay got to take home some hardware this year. BP3 was a good album which was just as “pop” as Ems album so i dunno how yall call Em a pop star and not Jay.

  29. ddave says:

    Hopes the homie Aubrey wins at least one.

  30. m85 says:

  36. MJ says:

    Big Boi’s “Shutterbugg” should have won over Jay’s “On To The Next One” even tho Jay’s was the bigger track. IMO of course.

  37. mmkayy says:

  38. NotoriousRambo says:

  47. Belize says:

  48. Gay-z says:

    jay z fucking sucks the the judges of these awards cleary dont understand rap….the category says “RAP” jayz is honestly a shitty rapper, his rhymes everytrhing. eminem destroys every RAP song with his syllable rhyming and bending words….THATS RAP and eminem is a much better rapper than jayz. can jay z freestlye? nope. can eminem? yeah. is it good? yeah the best. fuck jay z. “king of hiphop”? my ass. get outta here and retire already

  49. NotoriousRambo says:

    JAY-Z = POP

    T.I. = POP

    EMINEM = POP

    DRAKE =- POP

    KANYE = POP

    WIZ KHALIFA = POP

  50. Feminem says:

    Im glad he didnt win becuz he is just overrated plain and simple! Hov is and always will be the best rapper alive and dead period.

  51. Tim Lee VA Stand Up says:

    @Notoriousrambo Dumb ass its call rap dumb dumb fuck hip hop!

  52. OffYaSelf says:

    wow lmao so many stans on this thread
    fuck outta here if you were a real em fan youd realize that recovery was ok at best
    smh i fucking hate the grammys

  53. gay-z says:

    onto the next one had a sick beat, but thats it. sucked otherwise. u cant even say those artist are pop either.

  54. NotoriousRambo says:

    TIM LEE VA STAND UP: “OMG I CANT BELIEVE JUSTIN BIEBER IS GONNA PERFORM AT THE GRAMMIES YOU GUYS DEFINITELY NEED TO CHECK OUT HIS MOVIE I WAS FIRST IN LINE I GAVE IT 5 OUT OF 5 DILDOS I CANT WAIT FOR THE DVD TO COME OUT” 😀

  55. gay-z says:

    stans? get outta here. recovery was nasty, and so wasnt his old shit. u cant expect a 38 year old guy to rap about the shit he did on slim shady LP anymore.

  56. NotoriousRambo says:

    FUCK A GRAMMY ONLY NIGGAZ NOMINATED IN RAP ARE SELL OUTS

  57. EA says:

    Last time I checked Album of the Year was the biggest categorie…

  58. breeeeathe says:

    I thought pop was short for popular, is rap popular enough to be categorized as pop?

  59. OffYaSelf says:

    @gay-z who says he has to rap about the same shit? beats on recovery were wack the features were wack (pink wtf?) love the way you lie was fucking gay unless your a girl or a fag and the album was nothing special
    fuck outta here stan

  60. feining liquor often says:

    real talkk, recovery was dope at first, but come one, it is NOT an album that should win Album of the year. Hands down much better albums out there

  61. Belize loves Eminems says:

    You Mad co-sign

    drake stay gettin robbed by the old ass niggas

    congrats to jayz i guess

  62. lol says:

    hahahahaahahahahaha omfg. call his beats trash or whatever uwant or what the new word for rap, pop. he still kills it and still spits nasty lyrics u dont know what ur talking about. call me stan i dont give a fuck. hes still the best rapper/lyricist in the game no doubt, try and argue that. i agree he shoulda featured other people. like not lil wayne. but u gotta account that he felt he had to appeal to the girls for his to help his come back…and clearly it worked. and eminem put more effort into recovery than any other artist did nominated for album of the year. eminem deserves it.

  63. che el pibe says:

    ma nigga slim keep it up homie

  64. wickwickwack says:

    til this day i dunno why nas and damian werent nominated

  65. Aggie Pride says:

    I dont understand iz dis 2010 grammies i mean all of his shit came out n 2009

  66. NOT AN IGNORANT HATER says:

    I dont understand why yall sit there and waste yall time typing all that hating shit like its gonna change anything. Your input isnt going to change a damn thing so you might as well save it. And also I like both Em and Jay they’re both good at what they do and they both will get recognized for their good work so just stop all the hate Em’s time will come soon.

  67. i says:

    Mehn “the dude ranting about jay-z doesnt deserve the award, stop crying and go eat ur mamas coochie. U dont know shit, jay is the king of rap. go kill urself.

  68. leafy says:

  69. Free Weezy says:

    FUCK JAY-Z

  70. eminem fan says:

    eminem deserved way more than what he got at the grammys

  71. eminem fan says:

    and jay z isnt the king of rap u go jump off a Cliff with a budgie cord around your neck.since 2 pac died eminem is the king of rap

    to i

  72. eminem fan says:

    ems time has already came

  73. rickthespic says:

    for me Beautiful by Eminem was way better then any song on recovery especially Not Afraid. Beautiful (for me) was a much more meaningful song….

  74. HashRain says:

    I call bull on Jay-Z he got grammys noms and wins for Blueprint 3 last year, check his wiki its bull and also Empire State of mind can’t compete with Not Afraid…Not Afraid was the 16th and 2nd rap song to debut the Hot 100…are you kidding me, Jay-Z empire state of mind was good, but I’ll be damned Recovery was better

  75. rickthespic says:

    @HashRain This year’s Grammys were supposed to honor those songs and albums released between September 1st, 2009 and September 30th, 2010. jay-z’s BP3 came out i think a week after the cut off date but D.O.A the song that won a grammy last year was released before then thats why it won… kinda retarded i know

  76. georgewbush says:

    def jam shut it down. bahahaha thats raw.

  77. tinkerbell says:

    I cannot believe, On to the Next Won….Please the voting needs to start over….

  78. […] you, if thought this couldn’t happen. After 30 week on the charts and nabbing a Grammy, Cee-Lo’s F-bomb has reached the top of the Billboard 200. The charts will be refreshed this […]
