We're back with an episode that focuses on the institution that is the Grammy Awards (quick note: this episode was recorded before last week's ceremony). We talk about our histories as award show consumers, and we go into detail about what we feel are the three most egregious errors made by the Recording Academy voters over the years.
We also sidetrack/tangent into topics including the Beastie Boys' early 2000s VMAs win, KRS-ONE's often contradictory opinions (about everything really, but in this case, specifically about what constitutes hip-hop), and the Hot Mess (TM) that is Kanye West in 2023.
