The Grammy Awards
By
Isabella Kerba
Today Sunday January, 26, 2014 is a very exciting day for musical artists and their fans. Today is the 56th annual Grammy Awards. Something unusual this year is that there is a mix of new artists such as Lorde and Kendrick Lamar and old artists such as Led Zeppelin and Paul McCartney. Jay Z leads the list of nominees with nine nominations, and Kendrick Lamar, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Justin Timberlake and Pharrell Williams are not far behind with seven each. Stars like Bonnie Raitt and Lorde have already started celebrating because they got nominated in major categories. There are also some familiar faces, like Katy Perry, Pink, Justin Timberlake and Taylor Swift all hoping to win a gramophone trophy. Who will walk away as a winner on Sunday? Spotify made its own predictions based on song and album streams and came up with "Radioactive," Imagine Dragons for Record of the Year but New Zealand songstress Lorde had a really big hit with "Royals" last year and is in a good position to win. Spotify predicts "The Heist," Macklemore & Ryan Lewis as winner of Album of the Year even though Daft Punk’s "Random Access Memories" made a hit in 2013 and has a shot at winning this award. Spotify predicts that Best New Artist will also go to Macklemore & Ryan Lewis. Song of the year goes to the actual songwriters, while record of the year rewards go to the singer. This year both “Just Give Me a Reason" and "Same Love” have an equal chance of winning Song of the Year. No matter who wins on Sunday, it’s a big honor even to be nominated for the Grammys. The Grammys are not just about the prizes. It is also fun watching the celebrities in their fashionable outfits on the red carpet and the performances are also a big part. A performance to look forward is a duet between Beyonce and Jay Z and another performance starring Madonna. There's really no way to tell who will take home awards until the winners are announced today. It's all up to the Recording Academy's voters, but it is fun to make some guesses. Who do you think will win the gramophone trophies?

I do not know who will win the Grammy Awards this year. The Grammy seems like a really big deal because you said even getting nominated for the Grammy is a big honor. Anyway, great job on your blog.
Dear Isabella,
I don't know who will win because they are all such great artists. But, if I were to choose an artist I would choose either Katy Perry or Madonna.

Isabella,
I really have no idea who is going to win or who won already. One good singing group is Imagine Dragons. My favorite song from them currently is "Demons". Great blog on the Grammy Awards!
Jay Z probably win, because he is at the top of the list of nominees.

Great blog! The Grammy's sound very exciting this year. I think that Lorde will win. Her song, royals was very popular and I liked it.Anyway, Amazing blog.
The Grammy's were fantastic! Two of my favorite artists, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, and Lorde, both got Grammy awards. The only part that I didn't like was that there were all the performances, but I just wanted to see the awards.
Hey Isabella
I like music a lot
I hope that the participant that most people were rooting for won!
