Grammys: Last News

The Rolling Stones winning Best Rock Album at the Grammys earlier this month for their 2023 LP ‘Hackney Diamonds’.The legendary rockers beat Green Day, IDLES, Fontaines D.C and Jack White with their comeback album, their first full-length for 18 years and their first since the death of drummer Charlie Watts.However, some claimed their win was the result of their rich musical legacy as opposed to the quality of the album itself, and as such felt the other artists nominated were “robbed”.But Watt, who produced the album, has now argued that the songwriting still made the Stones worthy of the Grammy.“They are in their 80s, They’re 82 and 83 years-old. Tell me another band ever in history that has made a latter-day album that good in their 80s, with that level of songwriting, that level of performance?” Watt said in an interview with Rolling Stone’s Music Now podcast.Watt accepted the award on the band’s behalf during the ceremony.

Chappell Roan has reacted to an op-ed criticising her speech at the Grammys last week – see what she had to say.Last week (February 2), the former NME Cover star won her first Grammy at this year’s ceremony. While collecting the award for Best New Artist, she called out the music industry and “demanded that labels in the industry profiting millions of dollars off of artists would offer a liveable wage and health care, especially developing artists.”Following her speech, Jeffrey Rabhan – a longtime music executive and former Chair of NYU’s Clive Davis Institute – responded to her words in The Hollywood Reporter, calling her Grammys speech “misguided” and “uninformed” in a guest column.The ‘Good Luck, Babe’ singer has since hit out at Rabhan herself, posting a screenshot of his article in which he claimed the Missouri pop star was “no longer a struggling artist” and should “do something about” the wealth disparity “rather than talk about it”.Chappell Roan has since pledged $25,000 of her own money to donations aiding struggling musicians – other acts like Noah Kahan and Charli XCX have since matched her donations.Today (February 10), the ‘Pink Pony Club’ singer has once again called out Rabhan while telling her fans that this is an “opportunity” for “industry powers” to step up and isn’t meant as a rally for fans to donate.She wrote in an Instagram story: “Sharing my personal experinece on the Grammy stage wasn’t meant to be a crowdfunded bandaid but a call to action to the leaders of the industry to step up, help us make real change and protect their investments in a sustainable way.”Roan continued: “My mind will not be changed about artists deserving more than what’s standard in the industry.

Halsey has slammed an op-ed that has criticised Chappell Roan‘s recent Grammys speech in which she demanded that record labels take better care of their artists.After winning Best New Artist at the Grammys earlier this week, Chappell Roan took aim at record labels by talking about her past experience as a struggling artist.She began: “I told myself that if I ever won a Grammy and got to stand up here before the most powerful people in music, I would demand that labels in the industry profiting millions of dollars off of artists would offer a liveable wage and health care, especially developing artists.”Her speech had already drawn applause by then, with artists like Taylor Swift giving her a standing ovation. “Record labels need to treat their artists as valuable employees with a livable wage and health insurance and protection.” She ended her speech by saying: “Labels, we got you.
