I didn’t want to bother to comment because John Mayer has become more tabloid fodder than the talented low key musician we used to know, and frankly I would rather pay attention to talent than the countless tabloid [...]

2010 Grammy Awards Show – Showing that the State of Music is More Fluff Than Substance

The Grammy has become another one of those well established institutions resting & existing on past merits, significance and importance-representing the epitome of internal & external politricks & being out of touch with the present, while grasping at anything to maintain its relevance & longevity into the future.
