So MBDTF, which was lauded as a groundbreaking artistic achievement by just about every media outlet in existence, was not nomiated for album of the year... makes sense.

Also, who cares?

actually the best new artist nominees are the least offensive, by far..

How is Kanye's album up for album of the year.. wasn't that 2010 release?

i'm applauding skrillex for not only being an actual new artist (well, he's been skrillex for two years, actually), but also that dude hasn't even released a full length album, just three EPs that are more like maxi singles, if those existed in this day and age.

Aside from some actual talent on this list, this list is a complete joke.
