For Best Rap Performance Drake, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, Lecrae and Childish Gambino are in competition. The monster-hit of 2014. Monster by Eminem featuring Rihanna can write music history as the best rap/sung collaboration. But Kanye West Bound 2, Schoolboy's Studio, I Love Makonnen's Tuesday and Common's Blak Majik featuring Jhené Aiko could be also winner of the night.
Some people say 2014 was the year of the butts, and yep they nominated Nicki Minaj for a Grammy Award with her single Anaconda. Bound 2 is also nominated with some - for me - unknown - artists. The Grammy Award for best rap album could goes to Iggy Azalea, Childish Gambino, Common, Eminem, Schoolboy or Wiz Khalifa.
Our favorite country artist Carrie Underwood can be also excited about the Grammy's because she is nominated in two categories for best Country Solo Performance with Something in the Water and Best Country Song with Something Bad featuring Miranda Lambert.
Another favorite of Music World latino artist Juanes is nominated for Grammy in the category of Best Latin Pop Album.
Let's who wrote the best songs in this year! I think there's no doubt that Max Martin can't miss, all the songs he did became mega-hits.

Az idei Grammy Díj legnagyobb nyertese lehet Iggy Azalea akit négy kategóriában is jelöltek.Az év felvétele, a legjobb dal, legjobb új előadó és legjobb rap album kategóriákban várhat aranygramofonra. Az 57 Grammyn sokat nyerhet - vagy bukhat- Taylor Swift is, aki három kategóriában jelölt, de ott van Sam Smith aki nagyjából újoncnak számít a bizniszben, máris négy jelölést zsebelt be a Grammyn.
Amerika nagy kedvence Katy Perry két jelöléssel várja a gálát, a Prism című lemezéért és a Dark Horsért kaphatja meg a rangos elismerést.
Az R&b és Hip-Hop kategóriák is nagy nevet tartogatnak, Beyoncé három díj várományosa: a legjobb R&B dal és fellépés a Drunk in Loveval valamint a legjobb kortárs urban albumnak járó Grammyre a Beyoncével.
A hip-hop kategóriák mezőnyei nagyon erősnek tűnnek, hiszen például a rap dal duett kategóriában olyan nevek küzdenek egymással, mint Eminem, Kanye West vagy Jhené Aiko. Nem gyengébb a jelöltek listája a szóló rapszámok között sem: Nicki Minaj, Kanye West, Iggy Azalea, Wiz Khalifa, Common és Eminem is a jelöltek között van.
Őnagysága Lady Gagát is jelölték a Grammyre, no nem az Artpoppal - sajnos... - de a Tony Bennett jazz énekessel közösen rögzített Cheek to Cheek a legjobb tradicionális pop vokál album kategóriában méreti meg magát. Ugyancsak a Music World kedvenc Juanes, aki a legjobb latin pop album díj várományosa.
Nagy kedvencünk a country csalogány Carrie Underwood két kategória miatt izgulhat a Something in the Water című új dalával és a Something bad Miranda Lamberttel közös duettjével várja a zeneipar legnagyobb estéjét.
