Needless to say, I’m pleased that Hancock, a brialliant musician, won.

And because it was Hancock who won, that dipstick Kanye West couldn’t pull out the race card and claim discrimination

I wish there had been more classic rock/modern R&B collaborations like this one:

Those three people must be rolling in it right now. Darn! ;)

I also agree with your comment regarding Vince losing to another legend. I guess I’m just a bit Vince obsessed. I won’t deny it.

I think the CMA’s could learn quite a bit from this year’s Grammys. Showcase the history, while also the best of the new. Makes for a great show. Imagine pairing up legends with new stars on a country show?
