2010 Grammy Performances
This was the performance ALL Toronto residents were waiting for. The Grammys decided to save Drake for last and then they kinda let us down. You see the Grammy engineer controlling the mute button for cussing had a heavy finger, which resulted in a much bleeeeped out performance. No bueno. But we are still VERY proud of Drake. He looked great up there and everyone in Toronto held their heads high. Thank you, Drake.
The Twitter peanut gallery didn't seem to enjoy the 3D MJ tribute, mostly for the fact that they were all too busy complaining that their 3D glasses didn't work. LoL. Either way, I respected the Grammys for bringing together people who could actually SING to pay tribute to the King of Pop. I thought Celine Dion, Usher, Jennifer Hudson, Carrie Underwood and Smokey Robinson all sounded great. Oh, and to those people scratching their head at Carrie being involved. MJ's music was universal, dummy.
Beyonce's entrance would've been even more impressive if Lady GaGa hadn't had a similar army-stomping-guys typa thing right before her. As @ByronJH (whom I have labeled the Twitter Truth-teller) pointed out, her performance was a bit overrated and not the MOST entertaining. However, it was kinda dope that she incorporated "You Oughta Know" by Canadian singer Alanis Morisette. Kudos for that
So this performance starts and I'm like, is this a joke? OPERA at the Grammys? C'mon son! And then Jamie Foxx turns around and all is explained. T-Pain's silly ass was on stage too of course, wearing a white wig and conducting the orchestra before whipping it off and making me worry that he would give himself whip lash head-banging. The highlight? Iconic guitarist Slash coming on stage to do his thing.
