Grammy's Acknowledge Two New Fields For Rap
« on: June 09, 2001, 01:10:48 AM »
The National Academy Of Recording Arts & Sciences President Michael Greene announced two additional Grammy Awards in the rap field will be presented next year. Trustees for the NARAS voted to expand the Rap field by including a best rap-sung collaboration category and giving a Grammy to the mastering engineer on the rap album of the year.

"The academy's board of trustees continues to demonstrate its passionate commitment to education, human services and keeping the Grammy Awards process relevant and responsive to our dynamic music community,'' Greene said.

There are now four categories in the Rap field; best rap solo performance, best rap performance by a duo or group, best rap album and the new best rap/sung collaboration.

Nah, Cuz There's No Country Grammys, LOL...

Yea, It's Good To See That It's Finally Being Realised As An Art Form.

The Problem Is, You CAN Be A HipHopper And NOT Be Artistic, I.E. Puff Daddy... There's People Out There Like That Giving It A Bad Name For People Like Dre/Quik/Daz/Common/The Roots/Etc. That Are VERY Talented People, Ya Know?
