It is a big deal when you look at what the Grammys are suppose to represent.

The Grammys are suppose to represent the "highest achievement in music" The fact that acts like Beyonce, Kanye and others have over 20 grammys while other acts like MJ, Prince, Marvin Gaye, etc have less puts the credibility of the Grammys in question. Its a joke and can't be taken seriously anymore.

Destiny’s Child, Beyonce, Solange Knowles, Kelly Rowland and Jay Z are all extremely overrated and suck big time.

You can't honestly put Kelly and DC on the same level of overrated as Beyonce. Shoot, Kelly was/ is a better singer than Beyonce and Beyonce's best years were with DC.

Kelly Rowland has always been beautiful and talented. I always thought her and Le Toya were the prettiest in DC. However, Kelly seems to like stanning for Beyonce and being in her shadow. Why I don't know. She is just as talented. She should have dissociated herself from the DC brand and made a name for herself. She clings on to that DC brand and Beyonce's brand. At one point, in almost every single interview she would mention Beyonce and stan for her. It was cringe worthy. You can support your friends but you also should advocate for yourself too!!!

I saw a show on 'One Hit Wonders" that won Grammy Awards. So, in my opinion the Grammys has always been about what's charted and popular. It's never been about integrity, content and true purpose of music. Just my opinion, no disrespect to the Grammys. Like Denzel said when he won the Oscar. He said something like 'I dont do this for the fame and awards, I do this for my people' (very loosely paraphrased)

Eye wanna make Love to U,

eye can be your big strong man....

I agree. I just feel that during the 80s and 90's it was much harder to get a Grammy. It wasn't the same acts repeatly getting grammys. Also the quality of the music getting awarded were better. The artists recognized at the Grammys were way more diverse back in the day than they are for this generation. The Grammys have lost its value, merit and credibility. It doesn't really mean that much to have a Grammy nowadays.
