First Spanish-language Grammy.Did it deserve it?
>>130197158yea
>>130197158>Did it deserve it?Not in the sense that there were better Spanish-language records that year but from that list of nominees it's a pretty decent choice yeah
>>130197158no
>>130197158maybe
Of course not lol
>>130197158i mean which one's better
>>130197158what?
>>130197158Rosalía deserved with either El Mal Querer or Motomami.
>>130197158Yes. it's a great record. Musically much more interesting than Un Verano Sin Ti
nofor the simple reason that not every voter understands spanishhow the fuck can you truly judge a piece of art you cannot understand? and no, translation does not fix this problem fantano explictly does not rate foreign albums for this exact reason
>>130203348>translation does not fix this problemwhy not
>>130203348>the greatness of a record depends on the listener's ability to understand the lyricsLOL implying anyone knew what the lyrics were to "smells like teen spirit" until years after the fact. The lyrics on some great albums are completely unintelligible, even when the singer presumably sung them in English. music is made by those who hear it.
>>130203348>listens to, and appreciates the genius of, Il Barbiere di Siviglia without understanding Italiangod damn you're really desperate for a reason to hate the Bad Bunny AlbumI mean shit, how many of the /pol/ tourist MAGA trash wanking it to Wagner's Ring on this board speak German in any meaningful way?
>>130203380>>130203409??okay you're talking about the average listener. I'm talking about the GRAMMY VOTING COMITTEE these people's entire jobs are to judge and rate artdoes every person that voted understand spanish? no? so how were they able to objectively rate bad bunny's album in comparison to every other nomination?
>>130203432>does every person that voted understand spanish? no? so how were they able to objectively rate bad bunny's album in comparison to every other nomination?>>130203380>>130203409
>>130203471>>130203380>nobody listens to lyrics anyways>>130203409>irrelevant anecdote that does not answer the questionalso>listens to, and appreciates the genius of, Il Barbiere di Siviglia without understanding Italianyes?? as someone who does not understand italian you objectively cannot appreciate this italian album as much as someone who can can you actually answer the fucking question?
>>130203432>>130203471>>130203501holy crap meds now. You're taking this very personallyI'll make it simple for you.>Grammy>measure of artistic meritFurthermore, there's no such thing as artistic "expertise". The Grammy voters are just like everyone else. Just like critics, just like casual listeners. I don't pay attention to what experts say I should (or more importantly shouldn't) like. And if you want to be happy in life, you shouldn't either. I've never understood buttblast over the Grammys.
>as someone who does not understand italian you objectively cannot appreciate this italian album as much as someone who canWhat a ridiculous way to look at art
>>130203501>as someone who does not understand italian you objectively cannot appreciate this italian album as much as someone who cantake a second and think about how objectively baseless that claim is.
>>130203541>>130203541>refuses to engage with the question again i'll make it simple for youyou cannot judge artistic merit without fully understanding the languagetranslating artistic language is impossible
>>130203547>>130203553People literally learn the entire fucking Russian language just to read dostoevsky in the original language I feel so sorry for you that you're this artistically retarded that you think you get the 100% experience in a language you do not understand
World's gone to shit
DEBÍ TIRAR MAS FOTOS DE CUANDO TE TUVEDEBÍ DARTE MAS BESOS Y ABRAZOS LAS VECES QUE PUDE
>>130197158he just stole music from better artists but sure lol
>>130203566>>130203590>reeee you cannot judge artistic merithow would you know?>reeee you think you get the 100% experiencegosh that's not presumptuousyou sound really mad OP, maybe you'd be happier if you stopped railing against a bunch of shit that literally does not affect you at all.>buh buh people think that they're getting the full experience without learning the OG language!so what?>buh buh Grammies are a judge of artistic merit!zomg what world do you live in where you think that the Grammies have literally anything to do with art?you sound like a buttblasted edgelord teenager who's shocked and horrified to learn that commercial success has literally nothing to do with anything resembling musical talent.I seriously don't even understand what you're mad about. So a bunch of the Grammy people don't speak Spanish yet liked the Debi Tirar Mas Fotos enough to give it a grammy, and that makes you mad because.....???
>>130197158No because it's such a fake album. The lead single is one of the fakest salsa songs I've ever heard in my life. It's basically latin pop trash sung by a reggaeton faggot
>>130203353The reason the studios never had Arnold do his own voice for the German dub of Terminator is because his voice and accent, when speaking German, would be like Larry the Cable Guy to us. If you cannot extrapolate the answer to your question from my example then you are too stupid for me to go into depth.
