The discussion around the 2024 Grammys highlights a general dissatisfaction with current music trends, with many expressing that contemporary artists produce subpar work compared to past generations. Critics argue that the Grammys serve more as a marketing platform than a genuine recognition of artistic merit, contrasting it with the Academy Awards, which are perceived as more legitimate due to actor voting. Miley Cyrus receives mixed reviews; while her rock covers, including Led Zeppelin songs, are appreciated, her commercial success raises concerns about authenticity. Additionally, Taylor Swift's influence is underscored by the introduction of a course at Harvard dedicated to her work, reflecting a growing institutional interest in her impact on music and culture.

Grammys 2024: Key Winners ?? I sampled each , about 10 seconds was enough. What a load of slop. I can sing that bad. And this is what this generation likes today ? Try playing that slop in the 60s or 70s

It wasn't any better in the old days. I remember when frauds Milli Vanilli dominated the Grammys.

The Grammys are just advertising. The Academy Awards are voted on by actors so they mean something.

Miley Cyrus does excellent Led Zeppelin covers. It's the sort of thing that horrifies parents. That's what rock is supposed to do.

I like Miley, unfortunately she does stuff that sells. Her voice is pretty good, she can sing rock and she did a really nice cover of Jolene.
