They gave out 90 or so awards out of the 116 or so earlier.

yeah that is correct.

Everyone remember last year in the hype of Prince and Beyonce's opening number? Beyone won 3 Grammy awards while on the red carpet before the show started.

Well, since Prince won a grammy already for 2005, then that sucks that we don't see it TV.

Stupid non-category. Most people of the few that even care nowadays only care about best album/artist/song. But better than nothing, I suppose...

Hey, this is FANTASTIC news, whether we see it live on TV or not. I'm just so happy that Prince FINALLY got some recognition for his work in 2004.

Prince 2004ever!!!!!
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

I'm so glad he won for Best Traditional R&B for "Call My Name." It's the strongest song on the album.

I soooo needed him to kick Usher's ass.


WHERE THE HELL IS HE TONIGHT?
Come here, babe.. yeah...
