Are the Grammy's becoming irrelevant?


It seems to me the Grammy's have never recovered from the introduction of the MTV Music Awards. The MTV Music Awards came out of the gate with two objectives:

1. To modernize the format of music awards and shock the audience.
2. Provide a new stage for Rappers and Hip-Hop music.

This was a combination that became highly successful for MTV. At first the Grammy's tried to remain above the fray and put on a classy show, however over time to compete they've became just another MTV type music award. Which leads to the question - are the Grammy's still relevant? Do you look forward to watching the show every year and if so; why?

Justin Timberlake is selling a great outlet cover with his picture on it. I hear the Dixie Chicks will be putting their own on the market soon.
I heard about the Dixie Chicks Outlet Cover, too. That's the one that you do not want to "screw" in. Badda bum.


After reading most of the responses here I have lost a lot of respect for a few people, who's opinions I valued. Name calling and politics are not what this site is about.
