Grammys 2011 Nominations
Now as far as the Grammy nominations, 2011 is the year that Eminem makes a big return with his aptly named album “Recovery” helping him receive 10 nominations making him the most decorated artist heading into the ceremony.
But of course nominations aren’t enough for these big names and it’s likely to be Lady Gaga that gives the Detroit born rap star the most competition tonight with her 6 nominations. Among other artists with 6 nominations are Jay-z and Lady Antebellum. But perhaps it is Bruno Mars with 7 nominations that could be the biggest surprise of the 2011 Grammys.
The Record of the year is one of the most interesting awards and this year it’s between “Nothin’ on You” – B.o.B & Bruno Mars, “Need You Now” – Lady Antebellum, Empire State of Mind” – Jay-Z & Alicia Keys, “Fuck You” – Cee Lo Green and the ever so popular “Love the Way You Lie” – by Eminem & Rihanna
The most prestigious might just be album of the year and the Grammys 2011 album of the year nominees are Need You Now – Lady Antebellum, Teenage Dream – Katy Perry, The Suburbs – Arcade Fire and the two favorites: Recovery by Eminem and The Fame Monster by Lady Gaga.
If you’re looking for a fun Grammy Award to look forward to, look no further than the Best New Artist award which will go to either Justin Bieber, Drake, Florence & The Machine, Esperanza Spalding, or Mumford & Sons.
