Has Rih mom and brothers ever been to the Grammy's. I am happy they are helping her focus.I mean between this being her first award show with the ex there and Whitney dying it probably is hard for Rih to stay focused. I hope Loud gets best album. tonight. It had more number ones than any other album nominated.
- RihFlavour
  
  Rihanna might get best pop album….but we must give credit where credit is due…adele will win album of the year
  I also want Rihanna to get best rap/song collabo for Whats My Name!
  - Battleship
    
    nothing is written in stone. Did you watch last year? who won best album?
    - mdd
      
      We do not know who will win. I just hope Rih gets one Grammy tonight.
    - RihFlavour
      
      yes i watched last year. arcade fire…which was an upset lol
      - Maex
        
        I really like Adele, but i think 21 doesn't deserve AotY because there are only ballads and everything sounds similiar ( same with Btw preety much all the same)
        LOUD has different genres and a fast song here, mid tempo there, powerful ballad (ckb), island flavour (MD WMN) provocation ( S&M) -perfect mix!
        
        mdd
        
        I am glad I have someone who sees it the way I do. Loud is as good as GGGB and that year all she got was callob. To me it is long over-due for Rih to get album of the year.
        
        ali
        
        Don't preach Maex , 21 shits on all of the albums next to it , and i stan for Rihanna , but i know when enough is enough , now if 21 was against Rated R i will say RR will shit all over 21 but the sad truth is RR wasn't nominated .
mdd

I hope she gets another grammy in live show. They usually do rap /callob in live show. I wish she would get one grammy by herself.
- ali
  
  She only had one for Only Girl , but getting a Grammy is getting a Grammy its the same either way as long as wining one .
SOSMANDOWN

All hands on deck! It's time to LOUD Navy! Rihanna Navy Motto: "Ready Now, Anytime, Anywhere!" Lets do this!!!!!
Rih4life

lilly

I hope what's my name wins for rap/sung collab they say all of the lights in the frontrunner but I really hope what's my name pulls in!
she's nominated for album of the year, which kanye isn't and it wasn't as big of a single like What's my name it sold 3 million downloads and went number 1
ardni

lilly

Rih4life

I got the feeling that rihanna is going to win album of the year
- mdd
  
  My feelings have changed now. Adele will probably wim Album of Year. Rih is more pop than Adele.
  - kdog
    
    that why im like wtf they need to switch ……….lol they should show pop album again on grammy's give it to rihanna and then adele get aoty
Battleship

No offense but Adele Pop album. Don't like where this is going. Tell you the Grammys is so unpredictable. I would have chosen WMN over AOTL. Congrats anyway Ri Ri.
- kdog
  
  that why rihanna winning AOTY can happen
lova

ali

Rihanna won a grammy YAY !!! But there is something wrong with this one , Fergie won Best rap song when she didn't write the song , so if Fergie won Rihanna should win too , Rihanna gor robed :@
