A number of this year's Grammy Award categories feature artists who some say are miscategorized, or don't appear to have much of a chance. Last week we asked you about Radiohead's nomination for Album of the Year ... now we'd like to tap you on a few more categories.
Best Metal Performance: [Nominees: Deftones, Iron Maiden, Marilyn Manson, Pantera, Slipknot] Who in this category are really metal? Does a band such as Deftones have metal cred when compared with Slipknot, Iron Maiden and Pantera?
Best Rap Solo Performance: [Nominees: Common, DMX, Eminem, Mystikal, Nelly] Common, a presumed underdog nominee, faces an uphill battle against powerhouse ballers and hardcore competition. What do you think Common's chances are?
Best Female Pop Vocal Performance: [Nominees: Christina Aguilera, Macy Gray, Madonna, Aimee Mann, Joni Mitchell, Britney Spears] Do résumés of critical credibility for artists such as Joni Mitchell, Aimee Mann and Macy Gray even matter in this category, or is this a beauty contest?
Let us know what you make of these nominations send your opinions to You Tell Us.
