Source - Chris-PixFor Those Who Saw The Emotional Performance By Kanye West At This Years Grammy Awards, Here Is The Studio Version Of His Rendition Of Hey Mama.The song obviously means a lot to Kanye, after the recent passing of his mother, but to be fair, it doesn't match up to the original IMO. Hey Mama was one of my favourites from Late Registration, but if this version was on the alum, I don't think I would have been so enthusiastic about it.LISTEN - Kanye West - Hey MamaWhat Do You Think Of The Track?Let Me Know...

Joe Satriani (image courtesy of foreverjoe.com) One of my favourite music is the works of Joe Satriani. For you people who haven't heard of him or his music, he is a guitar instrumentalist. Rock guitar instrumentalist, to be more presice, even though dubbing his music style as 'rock' seems too simplistic. I became engaged with his music when I listened to his breakthrough 2nd album 'Surfing With The Alien' about 16 or 17 years ago. Arguably he is one of the best rock instrumentalist. He helped shape the sound of rock music during late '80s and '90s with his style of guitar playing that influences many guitarists after him. His records highly acclaimed by critics. However, when it comes to the most celebrated award in music industry, the Grammy Award, Joe Satriani has never considered go

My Number #1 Highlight From This Years Grammy Awards, Was Definitely This Outstanding Performance From The Great Show-Man; Mr Kanye West.Kanye performed his recent smash hit - Stronger - as well as a special rendition of - Hey Mama - which was obviously dedicated to his recently deceased mother; Doctor Donda West. It is so good to see that Kanye remained true to the sample he used in Stronger, sticking to the futuristic theme of Daft Punks original.West was totally on form with this one, he looked so fly with those glasses & filled his performance with a huge amount of energy.

I watched the Grammys on Sunday night. It was full of all the usual awkward prescript-ed banter. It had many unlikely and ridiculous duets. The most ridiculous one was Kid Rock and Keely Smith singing That Ol’ Black Magic. There was a very corny performance by Herbie Hancock and Lang Lang. I don’t know who [...]

Amy Winehouse (source)It's no surprise that Amy Winehouse swept the grammy's (most notably for Best New Artist), but she's been sweeping up the style competition as well with her unusual ensembles. One part rockabilly, one part do-wop chic, Amy Winehouse certainly strikes a unique profile. You can see her coming a mile away with her bouffant hairdo and over-the-top look.However, now that she's a big winner, it will be no surprise to me if more and more fashionista's start emulating her style. Short of the huge hair, this is actually a pretty cute look: pencil skirt, bright wrap top, basic purse, interesting jewelry...looks like a winner to me!If you want to do it up Winehouse-style all the way, then you have to have some of her trademark styles:1) Makeup: over the top eye makeup is a must

Creo que solo en una ocasión antes del pasado domingo, durante la transmisión televisiva de los premios Grammys, escuché a Amy Winehouse. Al verla durante la presentación de los premios tengo que reconocer que me enganchó. Esta chica tiene talento y sobre todo originalidad, algo difícil de encontar en estos últimos tiempos dentro del mundo musical comercial. Winehouse logró los siguientes premios: Mejor Canción del Año, Mejor Artista Revelación, Mejor Disco Pop, Mejor Artista Pop y Mejor Grabación del Año. Al único que no pudo acceder, de entre las seis nominaciones que optaba, fue al Álbum del Año (…) Winehouse no pudo asistir a la ceremonia de entrega debido a que Estados Unidos le denegó la visa de ingreso al país.

I rarely watch the Grammys, I just tend not to like award shows. They are usually filled with corny jokes, awkward moments, and just bad skits. I am assuming that because of the writer's strike, this years Grammy's was filled with, *shock*, music. All I can say is that it was the most enjoyable award show I have seen.

The 50th annual Grammys aired with fewer boring acceptance speeches than usual—and seemingly fewer awards than usual.

Well folks, they've done it again. The Grammy Awards have once again failed to correctly honor the best album of the year.  Now, I realize I am saying this with a severe bias because I have not heard Herbie Hancock's River: The Joni Letters (and in no way do I mean to diminish it), but I feel as though Kanye West was robbed.  I am not a very big hip-hop fan, but I am a very big music fan.  While

One of the first interviews with Bun B after Pimp C’s death. He speaks on Pimp C’s style of music, what UGK accomplished, and how they are nominated for a Grammy for “International Players Anthem”. MTV: UGK were in pursuit of recognition for so long and it got to the point where the group’s influence was overwhelmingly recognized. And for Pimp, he was in jail when the recognition began to enter its heights, but the last two years for him were the fruition of that journey. It’s almost as if everything came full circle. Bun B: I just got a call about a few hours ago that we got a Grammy nomination. Me and my VP from Jive [Records] were talking about this, because we been on this label for 15 years. We’ve known these people longer than we’ve known a lot of people in our lives. And he can always remember Pimp telling him, “We going to the Grammys,” and them looking at this little kid from Port Arthur like he’s crazy: &ldqu

Fracas has little patience these days. Being almost too busy for pants (some of you will know what this means and the rest of you should just ask…) these days, it’s just a little much to ask of a person than to repeatedly try to access the Official Grammy Awards Site to view the list of nominees for the 2008 Grammy Awards, only to find that everyone else and their dog is also trying to do the same thing and therefore every second click throws you back to a white-screen-no-access-check-your-damn-LAN-settings page when you know the only problem is there are too many people all trying to view the same page at the same time. Imagine my surprise then, to actually get in! Hot Damn. Would you think I’m going to deprive the fraccy readers of knowing how many nominations hard-livin’, snort-happy Amy Winehouse received? You’d be right if you, like Gypsy Fra-Kitty, had a premonition of sorts, and just knew that I’d post the main part of it for you here. Ok..

Vegas experienced some latin flair in early November when the 8th Annual Latin Grammy Awards came to town.  The Latin Recording Academy, whose members are made up of music professionals in Spanish and Portugese-speaking communities, created the Latin Grammys to recognize excellence in these communities and create awareness of the cultural diversity of Latin artists.  Looking at the winners list, it's amazing to see the international talent out there...yes, there's more than Gloria Estefan and Ricky Martin (although he did win an award). Swagtime LOVES this award show not only because of the awesome music we get exposed to, but because our friends at Distinctive Assets, who put together the renowned gift baskets and gift lounge for the presenters and performers, have assembled various products from hispanic businesses to add to the lavish gifts.  There's a music themed stationery set from Lantigua Designs, latin-inspired clothing from P.R.'z Fynest, and dolls from

San Juan, Puerto Rico - Ivy Queen, la famosa aunque no galardonada intérprete de reggaetón, manifestó su desazón de no haber ganado el Grammy Latino no sólo en la categoría de "Música Urbana", sino también en una categoría que se estrenó este año en la que ella estaba esperanzada de salir victoriosa, llamada "Música Interpretada Por Alguien Con Uñas De Puta De Nueva Jersey". La cantante expresó en una conferencia de prensa de que encontraba injusto que Calle 13, el grupo ganador del Grammy de "Música Urbana", se considerara en la misma categoría que la del reggaetón, sin duda por la sencilla razón de que, compitiendo contra mejores grupos como el de ellos, ella nunca ganaría.Ivy Queen, esmerándose en la interpretación de una canción del CD que le perdería el Grammy este año"This is bullshit!", declaró enfurecida la Queena. "Yo puse todo mi esfuerzo, mi corazón, y gracias a Madama Toña, una santera de Loíza, incluso un fragmento de mi alma en mi nuevo CD: ¿c
