The 2014 Grammy Award Nominations have been announced and there is a bevy of controversy surrounding some of the picks. Take a look at the video below to see the list of artists that made the cut! A few categories that caused some shock and awe are; Best R&B Album R&B Divas – Faith Evans Girl On Fire – Alicia Keys Love In The Future – John Legend Better – Chrisette Michele Three Kings – TGT Best Urban Contemporary Album Love And War – Tamar Braxton Side Effects Of You – Fantasia One: In The Chamber – Salaam Remi Unapologetic – Rihanna New York: A Love Story – Mack Wilds Best Rap Song …Problems – Tauheed Epps, Aubrey Graham, Kendrick Lamar, Rakim Mayers & Noah Shebib, songwriters (ASAP Rocky Featuring Drake, 2 Chainz & Kendrick Lamar) Holy Grail – Shawn Carter, Terius Nash, J.

We won’t say exactly who people are feeling this way about…we’ll let you use your imagination! Others feel that talent wasn’t recognized in some categories and that there were not enough newcomers in the best new artist category. However it was nice to see some new talent recognized for a change. Take for instance Mack Wilds, his Grammy nod was a breath of fresh air for all who enjoyed his new album New York: A Love Story. It was also nice to see Tamar Braxton finally get the love she has been seeking for so long with her nomination for Love And War. There will be speculation about the list all the way until Grammy night so we suggest everyone dig in! This fight isn’t going anywhere!
