From now on when I don't know an answer to something I'm just gonna give a GRAMMY to Luther Vandross. #GRAMMYs
February 2, 2026 at 5:02 AM
For those wondering, next year's #GRAMMYs will air on the Disney family of properties including Hulu. That is, of course, assuming that ABC, Disney, Hulu, television, music, the Recording Academy, and humanity are still all things.

Big win for the biggest artist in the world. Congrats, Benito. #GRAMMYs

Luther Vandross is not credited as a writer on "Luther," though it does contain a sample of "If This World Were Mine." Would his name still be on the envelope? Potentially? #GRAMMYs
February 2, 2026 at 4:26 AM
She's 79, by the way. #GRAMMYs

You just know Chad Hugo is f*cking TIGHT right now. #GRAMMYs

Tyler is our Herbie Hancock. There I said it. #GRAMMYs
February 2, 2026 at 3:26 AM
From a purely creative standpoint, nobody really touches Tyler. I don't think he wins Album of the Year, because he scares half the voters, but someday we'll look back at him as deserving of even more accolades than he actually gets. #GRAMMYs

Whatever Lady Gaga is wearing, Sia is gonna sue her for it. #GRAMMYs

Ahh, a music video on TV as it was intended to be consumed; as a paid commercial presented by MasterCard during the #GRAMMYs. Take that, Viacom! Wait.

Justin Bieber is looking like a lost Chili Pepper live looping on the GRAMMYs telecast. #GRAMMYs

Jack Antonoff is sitting very close to Olivia Dean tonight and my god do I hope they say more than hello at some point. #GRAMMYs

Every year they should just surprise one of the Best New Artist nominees by walking out the trophy to them while they're performing. Now THAT'S television. #GRAMMYs
February 2, 2026 at 1:48 AM
If you don't know who any of these artists are right now I can't help you anymore just go on TikTok or something. #GRAMMYs

Lauryn Hill is performing tonight at the #GRAMMYs because she was booked for the Golden Globes a few weeks ago and is just now showing up.

One of Summerfest's main ground stages has a new naming rights partner, and likely a more magenta-covered look for 2026.
