The 39th Grammy Awards kicked off with the award of Best R&B Song.

Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Donny Blyston, Luther Van Derruce, Glory to Death, any of these five names are obvious and highly anticipated, but now they are all concentrated on the waiting list for one award, competing for the Best R&B Song Award. As soon as the show started, the intensity was already very high.

Luther naturally needs to say that this R&B godfather is still the musician record holder who has won the most trophys in Grammy history. Although Donnie only released her second album, there is no doubt that she is the favorite darling in the American music scene today, and Grammys also dote on her. There is no need to say anything about the two queens, Maria and Whitney. On the contrary, the name of glory to death appears here is a bit surprising, but the quality of the song "Waiting for the world to change (wai.on.the.world.to.change)" has been praised unanimously. Even though no single has been released separately, it is still firmly ranked in the top 30 in terms of on-demand rate of radio.

Among the five singers, the confrontation between Maria and Whitney was undoubtedly sparking. These two queens have been compared by the media in all aspects over the past five years. They are not only opponents of their destiny, but also rely on their own influence to completely change the development direction of female singers in the music market. Starting from them, the skill of singing high notes replaced the unique singing style of jazz and became the measure of singers' "singing skills"; the fusion of rhythm and blues and pop style has influenced the music attributes of the next twenty years.

Not to mention that Tang Ni, who was rising strongly, almost relied on her own to shake the leading position of the two queens, and launched an impact on the high back seat with a dazzling genius.

The showdown between Maria and Glory to Death has been in a turbulent and continuous for nearly six months, which has also become the most sensational six months in North American music history, and has had an immeasurable impact on the future trend of the music market from all aspects. Although this is the rhythm and blues department, it is the only award to face the head-on tonight between Maria and Glory to Death, so the highlights naturally do not need to be emphasized.

It can be said that the five candidates of the Best R&B Song Award, anyone's victory is worthy of a big book, and it will inevitably trigger the focus of media discussions and may even lay the foundation for the subsequent direction of tonight's award ceremony. The Grammy Committee used this award to unveil the prelude tonight's award ceremony, showing their vigorous ambitions. Perhaps, this already indicates that this will be a night that will go down in history.

In the end, the winner of this Thin Ice win is... Whitney Houston's "exhausted"!

In an instant, all the guests looked at the direction where Whitney was. Whitney, who attended tonight in a royal blue evening dress, showed a surprised expression on her face, and then a bright smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, showing her inner joy and happiness without any concealment.

Applause immediately sounded, sending blessings to Whitney.

Maria and Whitney were in the same area, with only five positions apart between the two. At this time, Maria's expression was projected onto the big screen at the first time. Although she wanted to control her disappointment and surprise and tried to smile, she could clearly find that her whole face became extremely stiff. Looking at Whitney who was receiving blessings from everyone around her, the complexity in her eyes was hard to describe in words.

Compared to losing to Donnie or Luther, or even to losing to Glory to death, losing to Whitney is the most difficult thing for Maria to accept, because the two of them are like a community of shared destiny, competing for the top position in the same field. Maria once thought that relying on the strong sales momentum of the album "Butterfly", even music critics were on her side, which means she was sure to win, but...

Whitney was surprised, Maria was surprised, and the audience was surprised.

In the past two years, Whitney has shifted her focus to the movie. The "Body Guard" is not well received, but the original soundtrack of the movie has created the peak of her career. The subsequent two works have received mediocre responses, and this "wait until the time of waking up" is still the same. Maria took this opportunity to rely on two albums "Music Box" and "Daydream" to reach a position alongside Whitney. This time, "Butterfly" surpassed the original soundtrack of the "Body Guard" movie from its achievements to reputation, ushering in the heyday of Maria.

But who would have thought that the theme song "Don't Wait until I wake up" "Exhausted" once again created glory, won the audience, conquered the music critics, and topped the Grammy. In the minds of veterans, Whitney's lofty status is still unshakable.

It's not Glory to Death, not Donnie... it's not Maria, but Whitney! Grammy opened the prelude to the lightning and thunder of the award ceremony tonight with a shocking momentum. Just as everyone thought that Maria's "butterfly" would lead to a sweep tonight, she didn't need to face the head-on battle between Glory to Death, but Grammy used an unpopular unpopular to declare their authority and alternative, injecting suspense into the trend of the award tonight.

Compared to Maria's shock and disappointment, the members of the glory to death were completely relaxed. Originally, the R&B department had nothing to do with them. Winning the nomination was an additional surprise, and they had no expectations for the award. Regarding the award results, Fojin only said one sentence, "The Grammy is the Grammy after all."

Even though the market economy had an immeasurable impact on the award ceremony, no matter how commercial Grammys and Oscars were, they always maintained their authority. Especially before the 21st century, their persistence in art and their persistence in professionalism were never overshadowed by commercial interests. This is also the fundamental reason why Grammys and Oscars were able to have such a huge impact on the global scale.

Hugo agreed with Fujin.

After the opening surprise, the Grammys carnival party officially kicked off. Then the R&B department's awards were announced one by one. Tony Rich Enterprise (the.tony.J.Progect)'s album "Docabulary (words)" won the Best R&B Album Award. The Black hip-hop group refugee (fugees) won the Best R&B Award without any suspense, while Luther could not find an opponent in the Best R&B Male Singer Award and easily won the Best R&B Award.

In addition to the most competitive Best R&B Song Award at the beginning, the next few awards were almost unsuspected, and the awards were not exceeded expectations. However, the last award in the R&B department once again brought the suspense, with the Best R&B Female Singer Award, Donnie, Maria, and Whitney being shortlisted without any suspense, and Mary Blige and "genius girl" Brandy were well deserved to be among the last five.

The strong rise of rhythm and blues in North America is in addition to groups such as the four-person, boy and man group, female singers led by Maria and Whitney can be said to occupy half of the sky. The one who ranked in the final five this year is the singer with the strongest performance, the best results and the best reputation in the past three years. The competition is fierce, and the white knife goes out.

This time, Maria is the one who laughs to the end!

When the award presenter Celine Dion announced the winner's name, Maria almost couldn't suppress her excitement. She stood up suddenly, but then she was too excited and had to bend down, clench her fist, grit her teeth tightly, and do her best to control her urge to scream loudly. However, when she stood up again, her blushing cheeks still revealed her true emotions.

No one knows how important this award is to Maria more deeply than Maria. This is not only as simple as defeating Whitney, but also proves that Maria's musical style changes and innovations have been recognized. This will also become her confidence to continue to fight Whitney and fight glory to death in the future.

Since the Battle of the Century, the breath suppressed in her heart has finally been vented. Maria just wanted to scream loudly! But she couldn't do it, so she just held her fists, maintained her elegance, and just let her emotions echo in her chest.

Maria raised her golden floor-sweeping skirt and raised her head, like a proud swan, walking onto the stage with her head held high. As a result, Maria had calmed down her emotions at this time, and her eyes were flashing with strong confidence, as if this award should have belonged to her, but now it is just the original owner. She spoke calmly and confidently, "In the process of making the album "Butterfly", I encountered many difficulties and made many attempts. It is a brand new challenge for me, and finally it can be recognized by everyone, which also strengthened my confidence in continuing this musical path. Thank you everyone!"

Although the words were very modest, Maria's posture was very high, and the natural tone clearly showed her determination to win the trophy.

The awards from the R&B department have been awarded. Although Maria, who is in full swing, only received one trophy, its weight is very important. Not only has it defeated the heavyweight competitors, but the award itself is also very important. This also allows Maria to temporarily lead the leader among the highly anticipated three-horse troika.

It is worth mentioning that although Honor won a nomination in the department until death, it failed to win the award. The "Storm" swept across the entire music market and did not continue to reach the Grammy. However, no one knows what this predicts.

The Oasis Band and Glory, which have temporarily become guests, will continue to maintain their own audience status, because the rural department will make a brilliant debut next.
