The road to the Grammys is a long and complicated process. The eligibility period for this year’s Grammys are from October 1, 2010 to September 30, 2011 (an album or a song must have been released between that period). Now, we are in the Submission phase. You can’t win if you aren’t submitted. These are the songs/albums/artists that have been submitted for consideration. It gives a window into strategy because many artists won’t submit all of their songs because they don’t want to dilute their chances. The submitted list will be narrowed down to a nominated list (next month) which will result in the Grammys being awarded in February of 2012.
Anyway, here is a list of Grammy submissions and we should soon start to see more: List. Please post them as you find them.
