The end of the fifties. 20th century. The newly formed National American Recording Academy is a crying tribute to the dominance and growing popularity of rock and roll. And not only among young people. If it goes on like this, then look, this "under-music" will force real works of musical art out of the scenes, souls and minds. Something needs to be done! Very urgent!
The concern of music academics was the root cause of the prestigious music award, which nominated the very best and awarded the best of the best - superstars.
This modern Grammy award has become more loyal: it can be received by rappers, rockers, and alternative music performers (God, what would Sinatra say!!!), that's just the rock and roll players disliked by musical academics left uncategorized again.
History of the award and its name
Birthed in the form of the idea of the struggle "for true music" (it was just 1958, when the world was going crazy with puffy skirts, "kok" hairstyles and energetic "twisting" dances - that is, all the paraphernalia of rock- roll), premiumcame for an anniversary. During this period, it was 80 years since the invention of the gramophone.
And what is there to think - a statuette in the form of a gilded gramophone, and the name to match - the Grammy Award. Sounds!
But to get it, the singers had to sound themselves. And how to sound! Not only in terms of a well-known name, but also in terms of undeniable talent.
There were not so many nominations in the early years - only 22, so it was very difficult to earn the Grammy Award.
A Grammy is like an Oscar. Only in music
All the musicians of the world, nominated and not nominated for the Grammy, are waiting for the ceremony with special trepidation and impatience. Well, the nominees are understandable. There is no such nominee who would not dream of becoming a laureate.
And the rest - to assess the level of skill of colleagues, to determine their strengths: are there any chances to reach the same heights as you need to do for this, and whether the peaks are so high.
For non-music citizens, the Grammy Awards are a sight to behold.
In its structure, script, invited guests, speeches, venue, the Grammys are very reminiscent of the famous Oscar, which was born thirty years earlier.
The same Los Angeles, the same stage, the same hall, the same excitement before opening the envelope, the same soulful speeches: “Thank you God, my parents and my brilliantproducer…”
Slightly cloned. But people love it.
Which is more important: music or dress?
Here is the question of questions! A dilemma that nominees (especially nominees) and invitees cannot solve for themselves. The Grammy Awards, like any other event, are always a great opportunity to showcase your updated and very expensive wardrobe.
During the obligatory photo shoot against the backdrop of the emblem of the event, you can easily kill two birds with one stone, demonstrating both your involvement in the art of music and a new designer dress.
The current ceremony was dominated by the red and black colors of ladies' evening dresses, and, of course, some nudity and a little outrageous.57th Grammy Awards, photos of which are presented in the article, once confirms the enduring weakness of stars for beautiful things.
Record winners
The youngest recipient of the award in 1996 was fourteen-year-old Leanne Rimes for Best New Artist.
The group "Led Zeppelin" distinguished itself by the fact that she was awarded the Grammy 25 years after the collapse of the musical team. The nomination, in which the now disparate musicians were awarded, was called "For Lifetime Achievement".
The Irish Sinead O'Connor showed a kind of record of rebelliousness and obstinacy. When the singer was presented in as many as four nominations, she publicly declared that the Grammy Award was destructive bullshit. And when in the end she still won in one ofcategories and became officially recognized as the best alternative music artist, did not even appear to pick up a well-deserved award.
The absolute Grammy record holder was the blind performer Stevie Wonder - he deserved all his 28 gramophones with an undoubted talent to sing and live.
Who won this year?
There are a lot of laureates who were given wings and figurines by the main musical night of this year.
Among them: Dames Napier, Miranda Lambert, Jack White, Kendrick Lamar and bright Eminem and Rihanna.
But wider than everyone else, luck this year smiled at the singer Beyoncé, Sam Smith and Pharell Williams.
These three performers were nominated in six categories and took away the most gramophone statuettes from the ceremony.
But even among these three, the Academy of Music singled out the absolute champion. Four awards went to Sam Smith for Best New Artist and Best Recording, Song and Pop Album of the Year.
As always, the ceremony was not without famous guests: the most scandalous and one of the most talented performers, Madonna, presented her solo program to colleagues and the audience, and Rihanna organized a trio with Paul McCartney and Kanye Wats.
