He's no Stevie Wonder (28 Grammies) or George Solti (31 Grammies). Other facts - Quincy Jones nominated for 79 - WOW. Love the fact that Herbie Hancock gets Record of the year.
Considering that Winehouse won 5 Grammy awards last night and John Legend won 4, I'd say it is absolute travesty that Prince only has 7. I personally don't see anything special about Winehouse or Legend, but even if you do, you can't possibly believe that they should be any where near Prince in Grammy wins. I love Stevie Wonder, and I can see him having more Grammys than Prince, but not 21 more! No fucking way. Prince should have won 7 Grammys from the Purple Rain album alone.

lspear76 said: Back when Prince was making his best music, the Grammy show was even more of a farce than it is now, but in a different way. Over the past several years, the biggest selling records win awards. Back in the 80's, it didn't matter much if a record sold or not. These days it's more commercial. The Grammys are useless though. I didn't think anyone still watched them or cared at all. I don't even watch network tv, and the last album I purchased was 3121. I don't buy music at all. Does anybody?
i agree with you there are only certain people i will buy (prince, lenny, stevie w, india arie) i don't even listen to the radio anymore. it's sad | |

I always remember being on tour and the tour guide brought us to the trophy case and was telling us about each award and what is from...BUT he does not care about awards...he doesn't care to win awards. The tour guy kept saying this over and over but then would say "this is the Oscar he won in 1985."  It was weird.. I remember a guy behind me saying if he doesn't like the awards why are they on display? Plus, the trophy case was dragged out to the lobby for everyone to look at them.
I want to see the new ones... Prime aka The Kid
