The 58th annual Grammy Awards are just a few months away. Keep in mind that the Grammys will return Feb. 15, 2016, and will be broadcasted live from the Staples Center in Los Angeles. But this morning marked the official announcements for the categories and full list of nominees. If you’re an artist who got nominated, give thanks to the most high. If you didn’t get nominated...well, join these folks on Twitter in airing out your disappointments.
Although Kendrick Lamar and Taylor Swift lead with the highest amount of nominations, there are egregious snubs that need to be mentioned. Why isn’t Fetty Wap nominated for Best New Artist of the Year? Where’s the love for Carly Rae Jepsen’s E•MO•TION and Big Sean’s Dark Sky Paradise? Do Omarion and co. really deserve a Grammy for “Post to Be”? It’s all gotten Twitter riled up. Here are the artists people think should have been nominated this year.
Oh. I get it. @TheGRAMMYs wants to wait a year or two before they nominate @FettyWap for Best New Artist. Like they did with Bon Iver.

Dark Sky Paradise not even being nominated is the snub of all snubs.

#TetsuoandYouth was one of the best albums this year, IMO THE best album. But we know how people feel about @LupeFiasco so no awards 😔😒

The Album About Nothing ALSO deserved recognition waaaay before The Pinkprint

UMMMM #DarkSkyParadise, #SremmLife, and #WhatATimeToBeAlive are the biggest #snubs of the #GRAMMYNOMS. Officially upset.

The fact that #EMOTION isn't nominated for #PopVocalAlbumOfTheYear is a travesty. #GRAMMYNOMS

Feeling Myself not getting a best duo/collab nod and See You Again not getting a record of the year nod are also odd. #GRAMMYs

So the Grammys invite Nick Jonas to perform at their event and then they don't nominate him? 😮

Only tragic robbery is that “March Madness” didn’t get a #GRAMMYNOMS for “Best Gospel Performance." pic.twitter.com/VmF1h0Bmk0

Dope to be nominated for a Grammy this time around but @KamasiW not getting recognized in the jazz category at ALL?!? is heartbreaking.

This isn't a "im upset" (post to be) rant. This is a- ok so that wasn't good enough. I'll be back. Have my Grammy's ready.
