GRAMMY PERFORMANCE RECAP....

HERE WERE MY FAV PREFORMANCES OF THE NIGHT....






FIRST THERE WAS JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE, FT AL GREEN,BOYZ II MEN, AND KEITH URBAN...THIS PERFORMANCE WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO EVEN GO DOWN...JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE GOT A CALL ASKING HIM TO FILL IN FOR CHRIS BROWN...WHO HAD TO PULL OUT DUE TO HIS ALLEGED "DOMESTIC DISPUTE" (AKA HE WHOPPED THAT AZZ)...JT THEN GATHERED A FEW FRIENDS, THEY ONLY HAD AN HOUR AND A HALF TO REHEARSE AND PULLED IT OFF ALMOST FLAWLESSLY.











THEN MY ENTIRE REASON FOR WATCHING...THE FIRST LIVE PERFORMANCE OF "SWAGGER LIKE US,"
FIRST...LET ME SAY THAT M.I.A. IS THAT BITCH...I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT IF I'M NINE MONTHS PREGNANT AND IT'S MY DUE DATE...HOPPING AROUND STAGE IS THE LAST THING I WILL BE TRYNA DO...BUT THERE WAS ENOUGH SWAG ON THAT STAGE TO BRING DOWN THE HOUSE...ALL MY BOO'S WERE VERY SOPHISTICATED AND HAD THEIR GROWN AND SEXY ON PROPER...LOVED IT...






HANDS DOWN, MY FAVORITE MOMENT OF THE NIGHT WAS T.I FEATURING JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE WITH "DEAD AND GONE" (CAN WE GET A BEST OF BOTH WORLDS SITUATION POPPIN OFF PLEASE)....IT WAS SO RAW WITH THE BEAT STRIPPED TO AN ACOUSTIC LIVE BAND...YOU COULD DAMN NEAR SEE TIP LAYING HIS DEMONS TO REST AND BURYING THEM ON THE STAGE...JT'S HAUNTING VOCALS ONLY ADDED TO THE SOUL-STIRRING PERFORMANCE...AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT GET CHILLS WHENEVER JT SINGS? TI'S BACK-UP TRACK WAS ACTING NIGGERISH, BUT LIKE A TRUE SOLDER CLIFF (YES, WE'RE ON A FIRST NAME BASIS...YOU BETTER ASK SOMEBODY) SHRUGGED THAT SHIT OFF AND KEPT IT MOVING... DEFINITELY GOTTA CHECK OUT ROAD TO REDEMPTION (NOT THAT I WASN'T ALREADY)

*Honorable mentions*
JAMIE FOXX. NE-YO, SMOKEY ROBINSON, AND DUKE (last remaining 4 top) killing it as the 4 Tops




CARRIE UNDERWOOD....NOW, I WASN'T CHECKING FOR HER WHEN SHE WON IDOL, BUT SHE CAME WITH SO MUCH SWAG AND STAGE PRESENCE LASTNIGHT IT SHOCKED THE SHIT OUT OF ME...PLUS HOMEGIRL CAN BLOW....I'M OFFICIALLY A FAN...

JOHN MAYER, B.B.KING, KIETH URBAN, AND BUDDY GUY - BOE DIDDLEY...THESE CATS ARE NASTY ON THE GUITAR...

FINALLY, LIL WAYNE FEAT ROBIN THICKE AND LOUISIANA'S FINEST...WAYNE BROUGHT MARDE GRAS TO CALI WITH HIS ODE TO NEW ORLEANS AND I'M NOT TOO SURE THAT'S A GOOD THING...
