Kendrick Lamar guida il listone di nominati ai Grammy 2019, Oscar della musica, con 8 candidature, seguito dalle SETTE di Drake.
A quota 5 troviamo Cardi B ma soprattutto Lady Gaga, riuscita a fare filotto anche senza avere a disposizione la colonna sonora di A Star is Born, uscita fuori tempo massimo (e candidabile nel 2020).
Però Shallow ce l’ha fatta, a rientrare tra i nominati, con ben 4 candidature.
Miglior canzone, miglior registrazione, miglior duetto e miglior brano cinematografico.
Non contenta, la Germanotta ha fatto cinquina con JOANNE, nominata come miglior POP performance.
Stocazzo.
