Mick Jagger > Em & Dr.Dre
Doesn’t quite have the same set of pipes but old boy got the love and energy to have fun and get down
Yo was I the only person who had to Google Esperanza Spalding to find out who she is? haha
Drake and Bieber were probably said whaaaaaaaaaaatttt??????? They probably were thinking they might not win, but they were never thinking about Esperanza Spalding haha
These comments are so, so sad.
Yeah, and she has 3 albums out. I wouldn’t exactly call her new.
The Beiber looked disappointed. haha
What’s worst then sad comments are commenting on sad comments.
Sads comments > commentary on sad comments.
Snuff a barrel.
These Grammy Awards are turning into some kind of “Where Have They Been” type of shit. I mean they are dusting off all these 60+ year old people, why don’t they just go dig up Elvis while they are at it to join the fun…smh
Grammy’s are always bullshit but rap fans are worse.
^ Wtf? Somebody said stab a man in his esophagus? I don’t even know how to spell that word but dam, what is this magic class? And then dude said don’t stop till the cops are coming. So basically you smashed a knife down someone’s throat and kept it there just in time to exit the through the fire escape, all bloody and shit until you look back as your running and trip over a twig then get apprehended. Wow….
@Notorious Rambo stop being so narrow-minded, hip hop isn’t the only genre out there u know..I’m a invent a word “genreist”, the equivalent of racist except when it comes to music, can’t accept anything outside of the genre you’re used to
WTF IS NICKI MINAJ WEARING ON HER FUCKING HEAD???
CONGRATS EMINEM EVEN THOUGH YOU’VE GONE POP LIKE DRE
b.o.b/bruno/janelle killed. muse were great too. everyone else…eh.
@Jonnie

So…..can Diddy read b/c that shit was mad awkward, like most of this crap
JONNIE: “OMG I CANT BELIEVE JUSTIN BIEBER IS GONNA PERFORM AT THE GRAMMIES YOU GUYS DEFINITELY NEED TO CHECK OUT HIS MOVIE I WAS FIRST IN LINE I GAVE IT 5 OUT OF 5 DILDOS I CANT WAIT FOR THE DVD TO COME OUT” :D
U know what jonnie im a fucking gangster i hate u & that lonelystoner cat i hate all you blogs niggas im a fuckin G i was birthed in this shit if i see one of u niggas in the streets im getting another teardrop im a real life thug i swear to god i live this shit I HATE U NIGGAS!!!!!!
FUCK 2DOPEBOYZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Diddy is working on his reading w/ flash cards and children’s books daily… He is making progress but he still has trouble with multiple syllable words and also has trouble speaking with his new gold grill on his lower teeth. It is a daily struggle
The Roots got robbed !!! and was or was that not Raphael Saadiq playing the guitar for Mick Jagger ?
LMFAO @ DIddy’s Tutor. ahahahahaha Keep working at it though, I tried everything already, thank the lord for Biggie Smalls.
MEKA: “THIS WAS THE WORSE GRAMMIES EVER JUSTIN BIBBER DIDNT WIN” :(
MEKA: “THIS WAS THE WORST GRAMMIES EVER JUSTIN BIBBER DIDNT WIN” :(
I’m glad they actually picked talented acts to perform (Monae, Mars & B.o.B.), Skylar Grey was a pleasant surprise (she did great live and has sweet vocals), and it’s just sad that Gwyneth Paltrow can sing 10x better than Rihanna.
This is no hate towards Riri, I just wonder, why can’t she make an effort and improve?
Fuck you was the most entertaining performance, wtf was Cee-lo wearing that for?! XD
well, they got one thing right. album of the year.
Honestly Fuck Taylors get jacked-Steroids, NOTORIOUSRAMB0, and whoever… you all act like your fuckin tough. you guys are like bitches. Yea Taylors get jacked-Steroids your a “real thug” … If you were any bit thug you wouldn’t give two shits about the Grammy’s or 2DZ, but you and others keep busting a titty because of your dumb idiot sociopathic bull shit problems. Honestly, i laugh at how people start WRITING IN ALL CAPS TO EXPRESS ANGER or just go back and forth in the comment section on this site because it just goes to show that all you guys are losers with no life. Quit telling me who is or is not hiphop, I bet you guys probably know very little about hip hop as it is. You guys hate whatever is popular, just because it is popular. I bet its more the fact that you want to stand out than the fact that you dislike the content of the music. So go back and listen to your torrented Sean Price album and then jack off to your 2Pac records till you fall asleep dreaming that you were old enough to be around when he was alive.
If you want proof hip hop is alive in your respect go buy the albums instead of the torrents. learn to listen to Gravediggas, Murs, Tech N9ne, AZ, Atmosphere, Blu, Big Pun, Sha Stimuli, Brother Ali, Dessa, GZA, Freddie Gibbs, Homeboy Sandman, Phonte, Tyler the Creator, KMD,…. I can name so many artists that are hip hop, that if it were dead than why is my library full of good real hip hop. I say this because most of the people who claim hip hop is dead, do not listen to a quarter as much of hip hop as real hip hop heads do.
LonelyStoner=Ugly lame. Stop making that man famous.
jonnie u ugly as a motherfucker
jonnie u ugly as a motherfucker
WTF said this on February 13th, 2011 at 11:36 pm

@Blase I was wonder the same thing
wondering*
@Real Sense: cosign!
Leave it for rap listeners (not fans, just random stupid people) to be completely pathetic and clueless when giving opinion on music.
Not a fucking word about the amazing orchestration for “Nothin on you”, but the first comment had to be about B.o.B.’s monocle… -_-’ who.. gives.. a shit!?! Bunch of bitching queens.
Anyway, those strings were exquisite, and alongside Monae, Mars and B.o.B., they honored the R&B scene and made it look good!
Stop making that man famous.

LONELYSTONER LONELYSTONER LONELYSTONER

All of these artists are great, for real though, none of us niggas have what it takes to perform at the Grammys. If we did, we wouldn’t be sittin at our computers, postin comments on blogs.

JONNIE YOU GOT ETHERED SMH RIP
eminem>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>________
rihanna>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>________
____________>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>drake
Bruno Mars got BUSY son! I too have seen better performances from Janelle Monae. She’s still killin’ the competition rite now tho. Love The Way You Lie sounds just like I Need A Doctor IMO And last but not least, Rhianna can get get it. Don’t you ever forget that. Jets fool. LMAO
This is slowly turning into the NahRight comment section…2DopeBoyz used to have good comments with a few haters…now all I see is internet thugs tellin other niggas to suck a dick and posing as another person. C’mon son.
The Grammys were kinda dope musically, Muse, Arcade Fire, Em/Dre, and Bobby/Bruno/Janelle had good performances, not to mention Mick Jagger still havin that 60′s swag lol.
Eminem wins best hip hop album over The Roots How I got over , Jay z BP3 and Drakes Thank me later. WTF ? BULLSHIT also @ FredRico you honestly think Gwyneth Paltrow did any justice on Cee los song ? She made possibly the best song of the year sound horrible… Janelle Monae >>>>>>> better then all the rap performances. The Roots should have won that award and Drake should have won best new artist and everyone knows it.
Big ups to jonnie & lonelystoner dont let the haters get to you guys godbless everyone happy valentines day to all the good hearted…
Everybody… what would 2pac do???
A win for some real music today sadly we still need more real music nominated and less of these pop and if Jay-z wins another grammy for not really doing shit ima be pissed.
No one whom has negative comments is a musician in any form or fashion. They secretly wish they were some type of celebrity, yet don’t possess the talent or business mind, as you can tell by their opinion/comments to EVER become ANYTHING remotely close except in their pathetic childish mind…..a unprofessional critic.
As a fan of ANY music you have the right to express how you feel and what you think of the artists you enjoy or dislike listening to.
Never in my existence have I seen such cowardice behind a computer screen. Be REAL men or women, hell even human and either, A: Go create your own blog of distaste for music you deem unworthy of your ears or B: Become an actual artist whom is superior to all other musicians of the genre or genres you feel you would reign supreme in.
Everyone thinks they’re a f*ckin comedian, yet 95% of these negative comments come off as some bitter adolescent whom will grow up to be a Jared Lee Lougher and shoot innocent children because they too WEAK to bring it to the supposed real threat.
So continue to be the waste of oxygen that you are to all of mankind. Don’t add positivity to the world. Destroy it with negativity because that is your purpose in LIFE.
*This is not me taking up for Meka, Shake, rappers etc.*
I’m just tired of reading this UNIVERSAL MINDSET of EVIL people in the comment fields of ALL THESE HIP HIP BLOGS, POLITICAL BLOGS, SPORTS BLOGS ETC.
Sigh.
Haters everywhere… Get a job…get a life…stop hating on everyone’s success. Hot music comes out everyday…enjoy it and shut the fuck up
What worse making a comment about an artists music that you dont think is dope or writing big ass comments about other peoples comments ? Love or hate it , focus on the music and not every opinion you dont like.
NWA dr dre, The chronic dr dre, and the chronic 2001 dr dre would kick Detox dr dre’s ass for makin WACK music and wearin tight ass jackets
Steve Harvey droppin bombs on y’all hateful commentators hahahaaaa It’s really not that big a deal, sir. No one takes any of these comments serious…and if they do they shouldn’t. I for laugh my ass off nearly every day fuckin wit 2Dopeboys lol
B.o.b,Bruno Mars and Janelle went in! Their performances were so smooth and entertaining!
Almost every opinion on here is infantile. Thanks for reading my Big Ass comment. If it don’t apply to you keep it scrolling.
It applies to those that want to see less of the psycho rants. It’s to encourage those that are tired of reading 13 year old spoiled kids to DO something about it.
There’s a time and place to ignore it, specifically when someone is being disrespectful to a human whom just passed away.
This is becoming a bigger problem on this particular site lately.
I would be disappointed if this virus-like thinking spread any further than it already has.
Just a question… How long has Drake been out, and why are people still nominating him for Best New Artist?
(i swear it feels like he’s been nominated for best new artist for every award show the last 3 years running)
his debut albums been out for less than a year, he probly missed the last grammys by a few months.
^^^ His album came out in 2010 which makes him a new artist. Winning that award means that your music is highly known by the masses and Drake fits that title. The artist that won I have never heard of her or her music before. I know people hate Drake but dont just Rob him like that.
and kudos to Bruno Mars, BOB, and Janelle Monae, straight killed it yo
Cosign anything by Janelle Monae , watching her is like lookin at a piece of living art. Cee lo too , cant wait for another Gnarles Barkley album. Also , noy hating cause Em is talented no doubt ( when hes not yelling and screaming his verses ) but his song with Rihanna is just ok like his album. The Roots – The Fire and the rest of the How I got over album is dope but I knew they would get robbed too.
not even trying to hate on drake, i dont really care who won either way, but just because you’ve never heard of the the chicks music doesnt mean that she doesnt have substantial sales (lets not forget, hip hop is not the leading genre by any means), or that he stuff is just a level better than drake or beiber (i wouldnt know, i have no idea who the chick is), but anyway i digress
just saying that I’ve listened to drakes first mixtape not too long after it came out, and after seeing how well so far gone did after re-releasing it, its weird that someone thats been the hype of the mainstream so long is still getting best new artist nods 2, 3 years after their first commercial success
anyway that was just a thought, i wasnt confused about when his first offical album dropped or anything like that, just saying if he’s at the vma’s this year for best new artist, its weird as hell
I don’t know what the fuck Cee-Lo was wearing, but I want one.
I really just wish marty mcfly would shut the fuck up sometimes.

@@@@@
half of these videos dont work
U Should Never Be Proud Of Your Ignorance…Live By That…Jus Sayin.
Drake Didn’t Deserve To Win…Altho Esperanza Has A Couple Albums Under Her Belt (Shoulda Been Nominated Last Year) Doesn’t Mean Muhfukas Aint Just Now Up On It, & SHES AN ACTUAL MUSICIAN W/ Longevity Potential. Mumford & Sons, Florence & The Machine Are Both Better Than Drake Anyway…You’re An Uninformed Muhfuka 2 Think He The Best.
um why is Puff tryna look like Will.i.am
Second and last video doesn’t work for me.
so 2dopeboyz is trying to tell us that there was no non-hiphop performances last night? What is this BET? Jagger performance was better than Cee Lo’s, the the Bob Dylan tribute stomped Rhianna and Drizzy Drake. Please, lets stop being ignorant ladies and gents, hip hop and R&B aren’t the only genres of music out there; ridiculous.
the roots man! c’mon son!
the grammys are only for USA??? wft with the rest of the world..
the categories are too bad!!
Commercial grammys
the last album of arcade fire>lady antebellum
so sad all the money in this bullshit!
esperanza spalding is not a new artist!
GRAMMYS= hip hop mainstream and pop bublegum.. (justin bieber=music for kids!!!!)
WE NEED:
florence and the machine
arcade fire
the roots
janelle monae
cee-lo
thanks!
Post upthe performances from other genres please.
rihanna cant sing
drake did well
eminem lip synced and the performance with dre was boring
Another largely forgettable Grammy’s. I’m just so happy those old fucks on the Grammy board have SOME knowledge of what’s going on in the music scene – e.g., The Arcade Fire being nominated for “The Suburbs.” Never have I been so glad to see a band win a meaningless award.
Side note: how the fuck was Blueprint 3 nominated for best rap album; didn’t that shit come out in ’09?
And I know ya’ll niggas is kinda oblivious to white people’s music, but why in the fuck wasn’t Joana Newsom’s “Have One On Me” not nominated? I mean, I didn’t really fucks with that album a lot, but it still deserved the recognition of album of the year. Damn, I can’t ever say anything somewhat nice about the Grammy’s.
And fuck Lady Antebellum, that country/pop hybrid shit isn’t album of the year worthy you stupid fucks.
that Muse performance was sick. Post that brodies
It Was Sad Seeing Eminem’s Recovery Winning Over The Roots How I Got Over. SMH.
Skylar Grey >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Rihanna
@Umm…Unknown
co sign How I Got Over > all nominated
@ Nesta , first I never said Drake is the best in music , 2nd Esperanza Spalding has not done anything better then Drake in 2010. He got one album , shes is not new shes been out she was not poppin like that last year and he was hands down the most visible artist last year. The award is for best NEW artist dumbass , and I dont know why people think Drake wont have longevity cause hes two artists , R&B and rap and his 1st album aint even a year old yet so GTFOH. People have this misconception that hip hop fans dont know about Rock n Roll and jazz ect so since they do they think that music is better. Theirs Hip hop artists who sale alot more records and do bigger shit then artists from other genres of music so WTF.
Cee-Lo & The Mupets killed it!!
smh at people complaining about no other genres being posted, 2DB is a hip hop site, wtf you on here for if you want classic rock or country?
illuminati want my mind, soul, and my body.
Lady Gaga’s performance nullified every other performance of the night. SORRY, EVERYONE, BETTER LUCK NEXT YEAR!
Em’s performance was beast. I feel that Drake got cheated though.
BTW, who’re Arcade Fire?
Em’s performance was dope, don’t care what anyone says! And, you CAN’T JUDGE AN ALBUM ON ITS SINGLE(Detox). Like B.o.B’s album.
BTW, who’s Arcade Fire? Worth listening too?
@ Untitled
I’ve been shaking my head from these negative comments for awhile now.
It seems like theres a lot of bloggers with big problems in their lives that take out a lot of shit on the Internet.

Hip hop is alive and well.
lol @ the above, son put them in alfabetical order like niggas was passin inglish or somethan
lmao but seriously, when the site is a predominately hip hop blog, why would it matter that it doesn’t post non hip hop related performances? Im sure this a shit load of other sites out there that actually give a fuck about the rest of the grammys, but why be here when you wanna be there? What happened to people staying on focus and commenting on music and stuff posted, instead of worrying about borderline useless stuff like “why didnt you post lady gaga’s performance?”
and can we please kill that “Hip Hop is dead!” nonsense. If you take a minute look around and listen to music thats being made, you’ll see it’s doing well. (cosign with red’s list)
b.o.b, bruno mars and janelle monae killed it! best performance, hands down..
wtf? the the comment section get nuked?
Anyway, I know a lot of people are livid that Esperanza Spalding took the grammy for best new artist, but look at it like this:
Yeah, she won for her 3rd album, but all her releases have been on independant labels, and for a jazz musician thats the essentially the same as dropping a EP while on a major label, or a rapper having a shit load of mixtapes, being out for god knows how long, before finally releasing an “offical” album to commercial sucess. If you dont consider So Far Gone as Drakes commercial debut, then I dont see why you’d have a problem with her having other independent releases before hand.
And musically her work is on a level beyond anything Drake or Beiber have put out in the last two years. That mix of jazz with classical and that elite voice create a sound thats unique and hella good, something along the lines of Alicia Keys when she came out, but different enough that she’s carved out here own little niche. I’ve only been listening to her stuff maybe 2 days, but shit im already a fan of her sound.
I mean i can get it that most people commenting here havent heard of her or wouldn’t listen to her stuff if they did know who she was (lets face it, todays hip hop fans aren’t very varied in the music they like, generally speaking) but if your basing your vote on best new artist for someone that came to prominence in 2010 of the quality of their work, then she sure as hell beat out the rest of that category, no (unbiased) hands down.
anyway watched that bruno mars performance again, it might of been my favorite of the night (behind Cee Lo’s of course)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
@RED; phonte man said it best:
“they’re all close but no cuban”
how come i can’t see any of the comments except for a couple until after i comment?
3f3343f
@afoxbehindthewheel , you say you’ve only known about Ezperanza Spalding for 2 days and you’ve been known about drake for more then a year but think he didnt deserve to win best new artist ? That makes no sense. Between Justin Beiber and Drake I dont know who was on a bigger level last year.
