歌迷福利：第57届格莱美提名独家预测

Best Rock Performance

最佳摇滚演奏

“Gimme Something Good” – Ryan Adams

“Do I Wanna Know?” – Arctic Monkeys

“Blue Moon” – Beck

“Fever” – The Black Keys

“Lazaretto” – Jack White

Note: All these songs, save Arctic Monkeys’, are nominated for Best Rock Song too, so that doesn’t help clarify anything. So is it going to be a BlackKeys or Jack White kind of year?

注：除了北极猴子乐队的歌曲，所有其他的候选歌曲都同时被提名为最佳摇滚歌曲，所以在此很难判断。也许今年黑键乐团或者杰克·怀特会赢也说不定。

Best Metal Performance

最佳金属演奏

“Neon Knights” – Anthrax

“High Road” – Mastodon

“Heartbreaker” – Motorhead

“The Negative One” – Slipknot

“The Last in Line” – Tenacious D

Note: Anthrax has been nominated every year since 2007. The winner in 2006? Slipknot. The winner in 2005? Motorhead. Mastodon has been nominated a ton, but has never won. It comes down to Motorhead and Slipknot, and I think the latter is more the academy’s view on metal’s preference.

注：炭疽乐队自2007年以来每年都会获得提名。2006年的赢家是谁?Slipknot。2005年的赢家是谁?乳齿象乐队无数次获得提名，但是从来没有获奖过。那么获奖者应该在 Motorhead 和Slipknot两者之间，我觉得后者更符合评委会对金属音乐的眼光和偏好。

Best Rock Song

最佳摇滚歌曲

“Ain’t It Fun” – Paramore

“Blue Moon” – Beck

“Fever” – The Black Keys

“Gimme Something Good” – Ryan Adams

“Lazaretto” – Jack White

Note: Beck being nominated for Album of the Year confuses things more. I’m going to stick with my Jack White clean sweep.

注：Beck也获得了年度最佳唱片的提名，所以事情就更扑朔难辨了。我还是坚持一边倒的观点，支持杰克·怀特获胜吧。

Best Rock Album

最佳摇滚专辑

Ryan Adams – Ryan Adams

Morning Phase – Beck

Turn Blue – The Black Keys

Hypnotic Eye – Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

Songs of Innocence – U2

Note: Again, logic dictates a Beck win, and that’s what I’m going with, but someone else winning wouldn’t surprise me at all.

注：再一次，按道理beck应该会赢，我就认定他会赢吧。不过如果赢家另有其人，我也丝毫不会感到意外。

Best Alternative Music Album

最佳另类音乐专辑

This Is All Yours – alt-J

Reflektor – Arcade Fire

Melophobia – Cage the Elephant

St. Vincent – St. Vincent

Lazaretto – Jack White

Note: That sneaky Jack White; he entered his rock album in a different category! Sly devil. You earn yourself a win for that!

注：狡猾的杰克·怀特将自己的摇滚专辑归入了另一个类别!真是个滑头的坏蛋!为了你的小伎俩你也应该获奖!

Best R&B Performance

最佳R&B歌手

“Drunk in Love” – Beyoncé feat. Jay Z

“New Flame” – Chris Brown feat. Usher & Rick Ross

“It’s Your World” – Jennifer Hudson feat. R Kelly

“Like THis” – Ledisi

“Good Kisser” – Usher

Note: A Jennifer Hudson/R Kelly combo is intriguing, but I think Beyoncé takes this

注：珍妮佛·哈德森与罗伯特·凯利联手的阵容非常有诱惑力，不过我认为还是碧昂斯会获奖。

Best R&B Song

最佳R&B歌曲

“Drunk In Love” – Beyoncé feat. Jay Z

“Good Kisser” – Usher

“New Flame” – Chris Brown feat. Usher & Rick Ross

“Options (Wolfjames Version)” – Luke James feat. Rick Ross)

“The Worst” – Jhene Aiko

Note: Fill up that trophy case, Beyoncé!

注：满载而归吧，碧昂斯!

Best Rap Performance

最佳说唱歌手

“3005” – Childish Gambino

“0 to 100 / The Catch Up” – Drake

“Rap God” – Eminem

“I” – Kendrick Lamar

“All I Need Is You” – Lecrae

Note: By Grammy standards, it’s Eminem versus nobody, so Eminem wins.

注：从格莱美的评奖标准来看，这个奖项阿姆无人能及，所以阿姆赢定了。

Best Rap/Sung Collaboration

最佳说唱歌曲合作

“Blak Majik” – Common feat. Jhene Aiko

“The Monster” – Eminem & Rihanna

“Tuesday” – I Love Makonnen feat. Drake

“Studio” – Schoolboy Q feat. BJ the Chicago Kid

“Bound 2″ – Kanye West & Charlie Wilson

Note: Well, at least this one has competition: Eminem’s legacy versus Kanye’s. Eminem gets a step up because of Rihanna’s inclusion, though Bound 2 made the bigger splash via its ridiculous music video.

注：好吧，还好这个奖项上有点竞争性：这是阿姆的权威性与卡内的权威性之间的较量。阿姆由于蕾哈娜的加盟更胜一筹，虽然Bound 2 滑稽的音乐视频得到了更多的关注。

Best Rap Song

最佳说唱歌曲

“Anaconda” – Nicki Minaj

“Bound 2″ – Kanye West & Charlie Wilson

“I” – Kendrick Lamar

“We Dem Boyz” – Wiz Khalifa

“0 to 100 / The Catch Up” – Drake

Note: Here’s the thing: if I don’t know rap, the Grammy’s sure don’t know rap. Wiz Khalifa wins.

注：事实是这样的：如果我不了解说唱音乐的话，格莱美奖就更不了解说唱音乐了。Wiz Khalifa 肯定会赢。
