The 39th Grammy Awards kicked off with the award of Best R&B Song.

Maria-Kelly, Whitney-Houston, Donnie-Bryston, Luther-Vandruss, Glory To Death, any of these five names is obvious and attracting attention, but now All were concentrated on a waiting list for an award, and the competition for the best rhythm and blues song was launched. As soon as the game opened, the intensity of the competition had already exploded.

Needless to say, Luther, the godfather of rhythm and blues, is still the record holder of the musician who has won the most trophies in Grammy history; although Donnie has only released her second album, there is no doubt that she is today. The favorite darling of the American music scene, Grammy is also very fond of her; Maria and Whitney, the two queens, needless to say, on the contrary, the glorious names appear here, which is slightly surprising, but "Waiting for the world to change (.on.the...change The quality of this song has received unanimous praise. Even if there is no single single released so far, it still ranks among the top three in terms of radio on-demand rate. Ten.

Among the five singers, the confrontation between Maria and Whitney is undoubtedly sparkling. In the past five years, these two queens have been compared by the media in all aspects. They are not only fateful opponents, but also Relying on their own influence has completely changed the development direction of female singers in the music market. Starting from them, the technique of soaring high pitch has replaced the unique singing voice of jazz and has become a measure of the singer’s "singing skills"; the fusion of rhythm and blues and popular styles It also affected the musical attributes of the next two decades.

——Not to mention the strong rise of Tang Ni, almost relying on her own power to shake the leading position of the two queens, with a dazzling genius posture, launched an impact on the high back seat.

And the showdown between Maria and Glory to Death has lasted for nearly six months. This has become the most sensational six months in the history of North American music. It has produced an immeasurable future trend of the music market from all aspects. Influence. Although this is the rhythm and blues department, it is the only award where Maria and Glory To Death will face tonight. Naturally, there is no need to deliberately emphasize the points.

It can be said that for the five candidates for the Best R&B Song Award, anyone’s victory is worthy of a big book, and it is bound to ignite the focus of media discussion, and may even lay the foundation for the follow-up of the award ceremony tonight. . The Grammy main committee kicked off tonight's awards ceremony with this award, showing their ambitions. Perhaps, this has already foreshadowed that this will be a night recorded in the annals of history.

In the end, the winner of this thin ice victory was... Whitney Houston's "exhausted"!

In an instant, all the guests in the audience cast their sights in the direction where Whitney was. Whitney, who was in a royal blue evening dress tonight, showed a look of surprise on his face, and then the corners of his mouth were outlined brightly. Her smile showed her inner joy and happiness without any concealment.

The applause immediately rang out, sending blessings to Whitney.

Maria and Whitney are in the same area, and there are only five positions between the two. At this moment, Maria’s expression was projected onto the big screen for the first time. Although she wanted to control her disappointment and astonishment, and tried her best to show a smile, she could obviously find that her entire face had become extremely stiff, and she looked and accepted. Whitney, who was blessed by everyone around him, could hardly describe the intricacies of his eyes.

Compared to losing to Donnie or Luther, or even to losing to Glory to death, losing to Whitney makes Maria the most unacceptable, because the two of them are like a community of destiny, in each other. The same field competes for the top position. Maria once thought that relying on the strong sales momentum of the album "Butterfly", even music critics were on her side, which meant that she had the chance to win, but...

Whitney was surprised, Maria was surprised, and the audience was also surprised.

In the past two years, Whitney has shifted the focus of her work to movies. The "Bodyguard" was not well received, but the soundtrack of the movie created the pinnacle of her career. The subsequent two works received mediocre response, and this "until dream awakening" is still the same. Maria took this opportunity to rely on two albums "Music Box" and "Daydream" to walk side by side with Whitney. This time, "Butterfly" surpassed the soundtrack of the "Bodyguard" movie in terms of performance and reputation. Here comes the heyday that belongs to Maria.

But who would have thought that the theme song "Exhausted" of "Wake Up to Dream" has once again created brilliance, won the audience, conquered music critics, and topped the Grammys. In the eyes of senior insiders, Whitney's lofty status is still unshakable.

It's not glory to death, it's not Downey... it's not Maria, it's Whitney! The Grammys kicked off the thunder and lightning of the awards ceremony tonight. Just when everyone thought that Maria’s "butterfly" would take a sweeping trend tonight-she did not have to face a glorious and deadly head-on confrontation, but Grammys declared their authority and authority with an upset that was not unpopular. Another kind, injects suspense into the trend of tonight's awards.

Compared to Maria’s shock and disappointment, the members of the glory to death have completely relaxed their mentality-the R&B department has nothing to do with them. Winning the nomination is an extra surprise. They have no expectations for the award. Regarding the results of this award, Fujin only said, "Grammy is Grammy after all."

Even though the market economy has had an immeasurable impact on the award ceremony, no matter how commercial the Grammys and Oscars are, they have always maintained their authority. Especially before entering the 21st century, their persistence in art and professionalism have never been overwhelmed by commercial interests. This is also the fundamental reason why Grammys and Oscars have such a huge influence on a global scale.

Hugo agreed with Fujin.

After the opening surprise, the Grammy's carnival party officially kicked off. Immediately after the awards of the R&B department were announced, the album "Discourse ( by Tony Rich Enterprise (the...) won the Best R&B Album Award, and the black hip-hop group refugees (fugees) had no suspense. Won the Best R&B Combination Award, Luther could not find a rival in the Best R&B Male Singer Award and easily won.

Except for the most intense competition for the best rhythm and blues song award at the beginning, the next few awards are almost without suspense, and the awards did not exceed expectations. However, the last award in the R&B department brought up suspense again. The Best R&B Female Singer Award, Donnie, Maria, and Whitney were no suspenseful finalists, Mary Blige and "Genius Girl" Bran Di is well deserved to be among the top five.

The strong rise of R&B in North America, in addition to the four-person one, boy-man group and other groups, female singers headed by Maria and Whitney can be said to occupy half of the sky, and this year's final five is precisely the past three years. In the time, the music market has the strongest performance, the best performance, and the best reputation. The fierce competition can be called white knives in and red knives out.

This time, it was Maria who had the last laugh!

When the award-presenting guest Celine Dion announced the names of the winners, Maria could hardly contain her excitement and stood up abruptly. Then she was so excited that she had to bend down and clenched her fists. He clenched his teeth tightly and tried his best to control his urge to scream loudly. However, when she stood up straight again, the crimson cheeks still revealed the true emotions in her heart.

How important this award is to Maria. No one understands better than Maria. This is not just as simple as defeating Whitney, but it also proves that Maria’s changes and innovations in music style have been recognized, which will also It will become her confidence to continue to fight against Whitney in the future and fight glory to death.

Since the war of the century, the suppressed air has finally been vented, Maria just wants to scream! But she couldn't, so she just held her fists and kept her grace, just letting her emotions reverberate in her chest wantonly.

Maria lifted her golden skirt, raised her head, like a proud swan, and walked onto the stage with her head high. As a result, the gramophone trophy that Celine handed over, Maria has calmed down Her eyes flashed with strong confidence, as if this award should have belonged to her, but now it is just returning to the original owner, calmly. And confidently said, "In the process of making the album'Butterfly', I encountered many difficulties and made many attempts. It was a brand new challenge for me, and it was finally recognized by everyone. It also strengthened my confidence in this musical path. Thank you everyone!"

Although the content of the words is very modest, Maria's posture is very high, and her natural tone clearly shows her opponent's ambition to win the trophy.

The awards of the R&B department have been awarded. Although the menacing Maria has only won one trophy, the weight is very important. Not only has it defeated the heavyweight competitors, but the award itself is also full of weight, which also makes Maria Among the high-profile troikas, they were able to temporarily hold their heads up and lead the run.

It is worth mentioning that although Glory to Death won a nomination in this department, it failed to win the award. The momentum of "hurt and rain" sweeping across the entire music market has not been able to continue to the Grammys. It's just that no one knows what this foreshadows.

At present, the Oasis Band, which has become a guest for the time being, and the glory to death, will continue to maintain its identity as an audience, because the village department will make its debut in the future.
