I've suspected for a long time that the nomination and voting process probably worked this way (mostly clueless people picking albums based on fame or popularity more than the quality of the music) but I never expected that I'd see any confirmation. I'm going to keep this article so that the next time some stan (Beyonce's Gaga's, anybody's) starts nattering about how many Grammys their fave has I can show them that winning the award doesn't mean they actually made the best song/album that year.
