The Biggest Surprises, and Snubs, of the 2018 Grammys
Bruno Mars was the biggest winner at Sunday night's Grammy Awards. The artist sweeping the top categories of the night including album, record, and song of the year. Entertainment Weekly Correspondent Madison Vain explains the biggest moments of the night, and some ways the Recording Academy may have missed the mark.
Vain says last night's event showed "progress but only up until a certain point." In a year where conversation surrounding #metoo, #timesup, and racial inequality is in the spotlight Vain says the award show was a "miss-step."
"A lot of times they vote for things they are familiar with," said Vain on the Recording Academy's voters. "They vote for the stuff that they know."
David Bowie's entire catalog of songs has officially been sold to Warner Music Group by his estate for an estimated $250 million. This means the group now has the full rights to almost all of David Bowie's recordings. But Bowie, just the latest music mega deal. Just last month, Bruce Springsteen sold his entire catalog to Sony Music Entertainment at what in fact maybe be the biggest transaction ever for a single artist's body of work. In addition, John Legend also cashed in by selling rights to his songs from 2004 to early last year. Culture Correspondent at NPR, Anastasia Tsioulcas, joined Cheddar to discuss more.
