For the second year in a row, a hip-hop artist is leading the pack in Grammy nominations.
Although his name was only called for one category during Wednesday's (November 30) "Grammy Nominations Concert Live!!," Kanye West walked away with a leading seven nods, following the hip-hop trend set by last year's leading nominee, Eminem. He's nominated for his Watch the Throne joint album with Jay-Z and also picked up a few nominations — including Song of the Year — for his powerhouse collaborative track "All of the Lights," which features Rihanna, Fergie and Kid Cudi. He's even nominated against himself, with Watch the Throne and his own My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy nabbing Rap Album of the Year nods.
West was followed by this year's critical darling, Adele, who is tied with the Foo Fighters and Bruno Mars for six nods each. Lil Wayne and dance-music breakout Skrillex each garnered five nods.
While the Grammys have a reputation for catering to an older demographic (Robert Plant and Alison Krauss for 2009 Album of the Year, anyone?), this year's nominees are notably young, with 34-year-old West looking downright geriatric next to fellow nominees Adele (23), Rihanna (23), Lady Gaga (25) and Bruno Mars (26).

By now pretty much everyone has heard "Bada Boom." The song was Ludacris' answer to Drake and Big Sean claiming he bit Sean's "Supa Dupa" flow. In the video Luda released to accompany the diss track he gives Drizzy and Sean a hip hop history lesson and tells them to do their research before making claims about creating flows that were done years ago.
“With the super duper flow, I created that one word rhyme style,” Big Sean told MTV back in March 2011. “Drake really made it more popular, but Drake gave me the credit and was like I really got that from Big Sean. I think some artists just did it so wack man. Every time I say names I get in trouble and it’s like I’m dissing, but some people used it wack. If he said Ludacris used it wack, hey. Don’t get it wrong I’m not trying to dis Ludacris or nothing,” he explained. “He’s a great MC. But even though that style got so overused, there was a lot of people who did it great and there was a lot of people who didn’t do it so great. People always ask me was you mad that people took that style from you. I’m like, ‘Nah, that went and shows me how far I can go as an artist.’ I feel like I changed hip-hop. I haven’t even dropped an album yet. So that goes to show me how powerful my mind is.”
Drake also addressed that particular flow in an interview with AllHipHop back in June 2010.
"I don’t want to offend somebody…I hate that rappers picked that flow up. I wish they had left that for people that know how to use it. [They go like] “It’s a parade! MACY’S!”
That was a direct shot at Luducris, who said that line on the song "My Chick Bad" when he rapped, “Couple girlfriends and they a lil' crazy/Coming down the street like a parade, Macys.”
Now that Luda has fired back, it seems neither Drake or Sean want it with him.
In an interview with Seattle radio station Kube93 that came out after "Bada Boom" Sean was quick to back down.
"Are you sure it's about me? Because I didn't hear him say no name or nothing," Sean said. "I don't have no problems with Luda, I never did. I think he's referring to an interview I did over a year ago. I respect people who are ahead of me."
Drake has yet to comment publicly on the song.
JumpOffTV examines the beef and calls out Drake for dissing people then claiming in interviews that he didn't.
They also compare the new school rapper's version of dissing to the old school way.
