This isn’t just another podcast or another article about the VMAs. Not exactly, at least. We take advantage of the event’s celebration, which—as always—is filled with rumors of fatigue that are more or less unfounded, and which have drawn their best audience in 11 years, to inaugurate the awards season.
We look ahead at who might be nominated for the Grammys, evaluate the nominations for the British Mercury Prize, and in Spain we discuss the Premio Ruido. We do assess who was the best at the MTV Awards, who was the worst, who was missing, and who is going viral the most, which is, without a doubt, the GENERA8ION show.
And already in the second part of the podcast, we talk about whether Taylor Swift deserved to win so many MTV awards this year, whether her four new songs are as bad as critics claim, Madonna’s again-controversial performance, and the others of the night, much less discussed but better and worse. From RAYE to Sienna Spiro, with Bruno Mars in the mix.
