GRAMMYS 08'

The Grammy Awards
The BEST in YEARS!

KANYE WEST
Kanye's Honors his Mother Donda as he raps,

"Last night I saw you in my dreams/ Now I can't wait to go to sleep. ... This life, this here, this Grammys, all of this is all a dream/ My real life, it starts when I go to sleep."

BEST RAP ALBUM as one of his four GRAMMY AWARDS



BEYONCE performs w/TINA TURNER

Beyonce's introduction for Tina Turner was surprising because she finally mentions the women of entertainment history who matters most to us!
















TAKE A LOOK!

IS it me or does Tina Knowles resemble Tina Turner????

Not everyone is pleased Amy Winehouse took home
five Grammys Sunday.
"I'm going on record as an artist who is able to critique [Amy Winehouse]," Natalie Cole (a recovering drug addict herself) told reporters at a post-
Grammys bash Sunday.


"I think she has a great talent, but I don't agree with the Grammys giving her those nods. I think it sends the wrong message, that even in the midst of her stupor of drugs she can get nominated for all these awards.

"It's a slap in the face to musicians and artists who work very hard that they turn around and give it to someone who really obviously doesn't have a grasp of what she has. I've been in this business over 25 years and I sacrificed five years of my own life on drugs and almost lost my life because of it.

"So I take great offense to almost see someone getting glory out of being in the position that they're in — she needs to get her life together and embrace her craft, she will lose it if she doesn't get it together."
Tell Us: Does Amy’s Grammy win send a bad message?

I have to agree with Natalie Cole, as a nation we have a huge epidemic with controlled substances; however talent is talent.
