Weezy F. Grammy
Posted by Alex Woodward on Thu, Dec 4, 2008 at 4:37 PM
Sure, the record industry and its respective awards ceremonies couldn’t be more irrelevant in our increasingly digital and downloadable (and independently produced) world, but look! Lil Wayne dominates the list of nominations for the 51st Annual Grammy Awards.
The Best Rapper Alive earned eight nominations, including Album of the Year and Best Rap Album (Tha Carter III), Best Rap Solo Performance (“A Milli”), and two nods for Best Rap Song (“Lollipop” and “Swagga Like Us”).
Other notables: Radiohead’s In Rainbows for Album of the Year and Best Alternative Album (and “House of Cards” for Best Rock Song and Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals), M.I.A.’s “Paper Planes” for Record of the Year, and T.I.’s Paper Trail for Best Rap Album.

Beausoleil was nominated again, but I was really pleased to see both the Pine Leaf Boys and Cedric Watson up there too. Congrats to the PLBs and to Cedric!
