ugh...Bjork's Vespertine got one little nomination while Alicia Keys got six ::puke::.
Hooray for India.Arie! The only reason i'll be watching this year is for the Joni tribute. I'll fall over in my chair if they play anything from Hej, DJRD, mingus, or other 80's and 90's stuff. They're such Blueheads. Maybe she'll preview the new album. As far as RLJ goes, I got "The Magazine" the other day and other than Prelude to Gravity(Reminds me a lot of Paprika Plains) and The Real End I don't think i'll like this album very much. Compared to Joni her verse is very freeform and self-contradictory. I feel like i'm being had (ala Bob Dylan). I'm still going to get Pirates though.
