#SlayersGonnaSlay

Quenn Tay rained supreme yet again at the Grammys by winning Album of the Year. The icing on the cake was her acceptance speech. Taylor kept it classy, but also responded to Kanye's claim to have started to her career. Well she had this to say, 
"I want to thank fans for the last 10 years and the Recording Academy for giving us this unbelievable honor. I want to thank all of my collaborators that you season this stage, mostly I want to thank my co-executive producer Max Martin who has deserved to be up here for 25 years," she began.
"And as the first woman to win Album of the Year at the Grammys twice, I want to say to all the young women out there, there are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame.
"But if you just focus on the work and you don't let those people sidetrack you, someday, when you get where you are going, you will look around and you will know that it was you and the people who love you who put you there. And that will be the greatest feeling in the world. Thank you for this moment."
Damn! Absolutely Well Said. No wonder she is America's Sweetheart.

#KingKendrick


Last Night Kendrick Lamar also rained supreme winning 5 grammys last night, but nothing was better than his moving performance. With his Hip-Hop theatrical performance, we took a journey from New Orleans to Africa. He ends it out with a powerful combo of his songs "Alright" and "Blacker the Berry". He definitely earned the title of King Kendrick. I mean he is always breaking barriers, and kills the game no matter what.

#DemiOnPoint

Ummm Hell FREAKIN' Yeah! Demi Lovato showed us once more last night that she definitely earned her rightful spot in the music biz. She did a rendition of Lionel Richie's song "Hello" and absolutely slayed it. I actually think it was WAY better than the original. The rest of the tribute to the Icon was a little Dull, but Demi's performance was the best part of it. 

#TheWeekndGoesAccoustic

I absolutely love The Weeknd's performance last night. I mean he started off with the upbeat "Can't Feel My Face" and then goes into a stripped down "In the Night" I mean He was giving us real Micheal Jackson Vibes. Plus, he won two grammys on his first time. He really was one of the MVPs of last night.

#AdeleStillSlays

Adele took the Grammy Stage last night, and was absolutely incredible. There was however a little audio issue that gave the internet a frenzy, but nevertheless she slayed it as always. She later went on twitter, and explained the mess up, but she also joked around and said she was treating herself to In & Out Burger. I mean you gotta love her.



#Tori&JamesForever

Ok I don't know about you, but I absolutely loved Tori Kelly's and James Bay's performance of "Hollow" and "Let It Go" I mean they didn't win Best New Artist, but for their first performance at the Grammys is still amazing. Their voices were perfect, and I absolutely loved the mashup in the end.

#HamiltonOnBrodway

One of my absolute favs of last night was our peak at Hamilton straight from Broadway. I mean this show is freakin' fantastic, and definitely original. It made me want to go see it live. No wonder they won a Grammy, and another great moment was wen Lin-Manuel Miranda rapped his acceptance speech. You cannot get better than that.

#StevieTheAmazing

 Stevie Wonder and Pentatonix paid tribute to the late great  Maurice White of Earth, Wind and Fire. They absolutely smashed the performance. They later presented Song of The Year, and before revealing the winner, Mr. Stevie had us in laughter when he joked, "Ya'll Can't read this, You can't read Brail, ah nah nah nah nah nah." Well he announced Ed Sheeran with the award, but also stated we need to make everything accessible to people with disabilities. We always love him and his amazing spirit.

#LadyGagaGoesBowie

When Mother Monster walked the red carpet in her David Bowie inspired outfit, we knew her tribute was going to be amazing. and it was. With assistance from Nile Rogers, they definitely succeeded in cramming all of his hits in the amazing tribute. So Miss Gaga has made her mark on the Grammy stage yet again. 


#MostAwkwardMoment


Ok Ariana Grande was given the task of presenting The Weeknd's Performance, but there was a bit of a snag. She tried to make a pun about how he "Earned It" but there was few laughter so she had the salvage the L and so she belts out his song, and ends with a nervous giggle. Its ok girl we know you didn't write it, but she still slayed in the red dress, eyelashes was a bit much.

#WorstMoment

Ummm! Where was Riri? Yep she was a no show at the Grammys, and I am a bit mad about it. I was really counting on her to really salvage the kind of weird vibe this year's grammy's brought. I mean she did get a doctor's excuse, but still you gotta tell us this in advance so we can cry first.
