Grammy Awards 2019, ecco le nomination

Domenica 10 febbraio allo Staple Center di Los Angeles si terrà la 61esima edizione dei Grammy Awards e a condurre la serata questa volta sarà la bella cantante Alicia Keys. Come ogni anno, le nomination comportano numerose polemiche, tante sorprese e anche qualche delusione. 

Gli artisti che hanno ricevuto il maggior numero di candidature sono Kendrick Lamar, Cardi B, Drake, Post Malone e Lady Gaga. Quest’ultima, in particolare, sta davvero vivendo un momento d’oro per la sua carriera, sia come attrice che come cantante: oltre alle varie nomination per gli Oscar grazie alla sua interpretazione in A Star is Born, infatti, Stefani Germanotta potrebbe vincere anche diversi Grammy, molti dei quali grazie al brano Shallow, colonna sonora del film.

Stupisce, invece, che Taylor Swift e Ariana Grande siano rimaste fuori dalle categorie più importanti, ossia album dell’anno, canzone dell’anno (per la quale viene premiato l’autore), brano dell’anno e miglior nuovo artista dell’anno. Le due artiste ha ottenuto solo la nomination come Best Pop Vocal Album, mentre Ariana Grande la stessa candidatura e poi un’altra nella categoria Best Pop Solo Performance per God Is A Woman. I fan, invece, sono molto felici per la candidatura di Shawn Mendes nella categoria della miglior canzone, con la sua hit In My Blood.
