  • Grammys 2015 Best Pop Solo Performance Nominees, Who Should & Will Win: Sia Battles Sam Smith, John Legend, Taylor Swift & Pharrell

    The 57th Annual Grammy Awards hosted by LL Cool J will air live from the Los Angeles Staples Center this Sunday, Feb. 8 at 8 p.m. EST on CBS. We've examined the biggest categories and have put in our two cents on who we think should win and who we think will win each award. Vote for your pick in the poll at the bottom of the page. Sia's "Chandelier" is one of the only pop songs that instead of getting really old after a while actually gets better with time. Every new performance seems to bring out more layers. It's a truly powerful song that will stand the test of time. The range of notes Sia hits and the texture of her sound blows the other nominees out of the water. This song is also up for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Music Video, but Sia shines especially bright in this performance category. You can hear the pain in her voice, you can feel her struggle.

    The 57th Annual Grammy Awards hosted by LL Cool J will air live from the Los Angeles Staples Center this Sunday, Feb. 8 at 8 p.m. EST on CBS. We've examined the biggest categories and have put in our two cents on who we think should win and who we think will win each award. Vote for your pick in the poll at the bottom of the page. Although we don't predict G I R L winning Album of the Year, the effort could fare well in the Urban Contemporary department, which in its third year as a category celebrates albums that include "the more contemporary elements of R&B and may incorporate production elements found in urban pop, urban Euro-pop, urban rock, and urban alternative." Pharrell is the face of contemporary production, and his latest effort splashes pop, funk, and dance onto its R&B canvas. The album also features heavyweight contributors Justin Timberlake, Alicia Keys, Daft Punk and Miley Cyrus, adding to its mainstream appeal.

We've examined the biggest categories and have put in our two cents on who we think should win and who we think will win each award. Vote for your pick in the poll at the bottom of the page. Beyoncé's surprise self-titled album will be hard to beat. It was, in the truest sense, the most influential album of the year. The effort was unprecedented as far as marketing, promotion and the massive visual component that tied everything together. With no prior promotion, it sold more than 828,773 copies in the first three days, which is impressive in an era where streaming and piracy are killing sales of actual downloads.

  • Snoop Dogg Stars In Super Bowl Commercial For Eat24 Alongside Gilbert Gottfried [WATCH]

    Nowadays, you don't have to wait until Super Bowl Sunday to watch those highly anticipated commercials. They're been surfacing online all week.

As Billboard notes, last year he dropped the unintelligible "Abracadabralifornia" ahead of the Red Hot Chili Peppers' Super Bowl halftime appearance, and in 2012 he leaked a "Madonna" song that featured a terrible impersonator scatting and singing vague things about football.

While doing a countdown of radio's top songs, Howard Stern voiced his surprise over Smith's success while also giving him a backhanded compliment.
