It's generally seen as a disappointment and there haven't been any real money singles. Rock looks to be crowded this year in AOTY, so it doesn't look like X has much of a chance at this point to sneak in. Uptempo tracks like "Sing" only get in Song of the Year if it was a huge hit, which it is not at this time. He would need something more slower and introspective along the lines of "The A Team" to get a nod, which could possibly be enough considering his luck with the general field and his perception as the "guitar/songwriter guy" (think John Mayer, Jason Mraz) that people tend to associate with as a heartfelt artist.Ivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786658818562297429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8679373.post-58375930914685383002014-07-28T17:21:22.898-05:002014-07-28T17:21:22.898-05:00Ah I see, that makes sense.

He had the most critically acclaimed hip hop album of the last decade, and he didnt even get nominated? And loud did? LOUD?!! Its outrageous. I never had much respect for the grammy's but i like to see artists like Kanye get rewarded for continually pushing the boundaries and carrying a genre on his back. Rolling stone did him justice by adding it in the list of '500 greatest albums of all time'. Even if he didnt release MBDTF, he should have got a nomination for Watch The Throne, a mammoth record worthy of an AOTY nod ahead of Loud or Doo wops.

It even got me a retweet from the man himself!<br /><br />I'll have to keep an ear and an eye out for that woman's tone next time I watch Malcolm X. It was already a very effective scene, but I'm curious to see if that little subtlety unknowingly affected my reaction. That entire movie just blew my mind as a kid. I was even more amazed when I saw footage of the real Malcolm X later on and at how accurate Denzel was. Lee in general is probably responsible for why I've appreciated cinema for so long.Ivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786658818562297429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8679373.post-13383131771008781472013-05-15T22:29:11.120-05:002013-05-15T22:29:11.120-05:00Lee's musicality is remarkable--just rewatched...Lee's musicality is remarkable--just rewatched the Teenage Wasteland section of SoS and it's brilliantly edited. I have a history blog and was writing an entry on Lee's Malcolm X movie--I was looking for the name of the song playing over the sequence when the murderers are casing out the Audubon the day before, hence my visit here. Re: the "A Change is Gonna Come" sequence--if you listen to the woman to whom Denzel speaks outside the Audubon, even her voice is musical (listen to how she's modulating up and down). Almost certainly that's how she normally speaks but I bet Lee picked up on it and I think it add an extra grace note to the scene.Clarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01525833327080557061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8679373.post-76895010725779979582013-05-10T21:20:35.907-05:002013-05-10T21:20:35.907-05:00Also an excellent one!
