For the 55th time

“One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain”, sang Bob Marley in his song Trenchtown Rock, but I don’t think the same applies when the Grammy Nominations hit you.

Last year’s Grammys, the 54th, we had Adele swoop down like an eagle and snatch a lot of awards; she even holds a record for the most Grammy’s won by a female artist in one night.

This time the tables have turned; male artists are at the top of the game. While we will get to know the results on the 10th of February, when the award show is televised from Las Vegas, but to warm up to the occasion you can watch the Grammy Nominations Concert at 9 pm, tonight.

The Concert will be hosted by Taylor Swift and LL Cool J, live from Nashville. Till then, you have the option of clapping your hands or booing the jury; because, the way we’re looking at it, fun,Frank Ocean, Mumford & Sons, Jay-Z, Kanye West and Dan Auerbach from The Black Keys aren’t walking home empty handed.
