Ночью в среду были объявлены номинанты на 53 премию Grammy Awards. В десяти номинациях был представлен Eminem: среди прочего, релиз “Recovery” будет бороться за звание лучшего альбома года.
Следом за детройтским MC идет новичок 2010 года – Bruno Mars, который посоревнуется в семи номинациях, в большинстве своем за успешнейшие коллаборации с B.o.B. и Cee Lo Green.
