it's ALBUM OF THE YEAR...first of all; just the audacity she took to drop that **** on us in December 2013 was enough to give her that award. 17 music videos all with perfect aesthetic! unorthodox song structures (Haunted & Partiton half rap half rapsung, Flawless with the speech, XO minimalist vocal approach....). this is a total disrespect to the amount of input used for this album.
Jessie J and Tom Jones, “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling”
With their swooning performance, Tom Jones and Jessie J attempted to unseat Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga as the May-December duo of the moment. It started off a little rocky, but as the tempo picked up and Jessie J cut back on all that unnecessary vibrato (we know you can sing, honey—you hit the high notes Ariana Grande missed), it was an sweet, upbeat tribute to songwriting team Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil. B
Rihanna and 45Seconds shows that she is artistically ahead of BÉN, who delivered a boring, trend-hopping gimmick that was all producer/writer-driven. He would never dare to go fully acoustic and bear emotion for a lead comeback singel.
Her Grammy wins in U/C album and Rap/Sung show that she has more industry respect than BÉN, who can't even beat a one-hit flash in the pan ablum like GIRL.
The sells in both singel and ablum obviously speak for themselves, the people like her more than BÉN.
More and more we are seeing that BÉN is falling further and further behind, and appearing less relevant and less vital to the industry. He is a gimmicky sideshow. He needs to change his game instead of copying others.
