It’s that time of year again folks, award season, and with that comes the biggest music award ceremony in the business, the Grammy’s. The nominations for the all categories have since been released and it’s always interesting to see a snapshot of what’s made the biggest impact of the past year. All the hottest stars and newest additions to the music world all come together for one night to celebrate the magic that is music of all kinds.
