What were the biggest Grammy nomination snubs this year?
I’ll limit this answer to the four main categories (Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artist). Fellow answerer Carmella Mosciski listed those nominees out here.
I would say Maren Morris getting just one nomination (Best Country Duo/Group Performance for "Common" with Brandi Carlile) was the biggest surprise. Her eligible album, GIRL, won the CMA Award for Album of the Year, and she had a whole slew of nominations at that ceremony. That she didn’t get a nod from the Recording Academy in any of the big four categories, especially Album of the Year, was pretty shocking.
The Jonas Brothers’ smash "Sucker" was a surprising absence from the Record of the Year category. The song is up for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, but for such a chart-topping hit that was surrounded by a lot of excitement about the brothers’ return to music, it seemed like a no-brainer for a ROTY nod.
For Best New Artist, I would say Megan Thee Stallion is probably the snub I least saw coming. The breakout rapper had a huge year, and she seemed like a pretty safe bet, but I guess the Recording Academy disagreed. Not only was she snubbed for Best New Artist, but she was also ignored in every other category.
Another artist that got completely shut out of the ceremony is Halsey. Her single "Without Me" was a really strong contender for Song or Record of the Year, and that she didn’t get recognized at all was a bit disappointing.
And finally, say what you will about Taylor Swift, but the week her album Lover was released, it sold more copies than the rest of the Billboard 200 combined. Maybe it didn’t have the cultural impact of Lil Nas X or of Ariana Grande’s thank u, next, but it was widely praised by critics and was a clear success among the masses. She did scoop up three nominations (Song of the Year, Best Pop Solo Performance, and Best Pop Vocal Album) so it’s not as if she’s being ignored outright, but I suspect the fact that she’s already won Album of the Year twice outweighed the merits of the album at hand.

Is Bobby Martin The Granddaddy Of Rhythm And Blues?
Bobby Martin is the Grammy Award winning R&B producer that dominated the airwaves for nearly three decades with his signature sound. He is a legend in the music industry, and he is well known around the world. Martin's fellow Jehovah's Witness brothers and sisters often refer to him as Brother Martin. In addition to being a Grammy Winner, he is famous and respected as The Granddaddy of R&B music. His signature sound was called R&B, and in the 1970's it was known as The Sound of Philadelphia.
As far as Bobby Martin is concerned, younger R&B artists often sample and produce remakes of his songs. A good example of this is the song "Da Butta". WILL SMITH and LIL' KIM collaborated with Bobby Martin by using one of his productions. The music track and beat were taken from Bobby Martin's studio recording of (Every Time I Turn Around) "Back in Love Again", by L.T.D. GEORGE BENSON also recorded a cover of an L.T.D. song, called "Love Ballad".
Most of us have heard SEAL, and SIMPLY RED sing "If You Don't Know Me By Now", which was originally arranged in the studio with Bobby Martin. KANYE WEST sampled "Show You The Way To Go", using Bobby Martin's recording of THE JACKSONS.
Martin's success in the music industry has broken the stereotype that Jehovah Witnesses do not participate in any of the arts. In fact, some of the most prolific icons in entertainment just happen to be Jehovah's Witnesses, like PRINCE, KATHERINE JACKSON (Michael Jackson's Mother), SERENA and VENUS WILLIAMS, GEORGE BENSON, LARRY GRAHAM (Drake's Uncle), RONNIE LAWS just to name a few.
Jehovah's Witnesses are happy and joyful people that want to live a clean life. Yet they enjoy music, as long as it is clean music. Jehovah's Witnesses dance at their gatherings, and they all sing songs to Jehovah at all of their meetings. One of Bobby Martin's fans, Camille Szalma, had the opportunity to take a photo with Bobby and the Latin Music legend "TITO PUENTE", at a celebrity mixer. Surprisingly, Camille Szalma just happened to be a faithful Jehovah's Witness herself, also showing that Jehovah's Witnesses represent some of the music industry's fan base. Jehovah's Witnesses purchase music and they enjoy live performances.
Martin has even collaborated with many of his Christian brothers that are known in the entertainment world, such as THE JACKSONS, GEORGE BENSON, LARRY GRAHAM, JEAN TERRELL, BENNY GOLSON, HUBERT LAWS, and many others.
Bobby Martin is best known for arranging and producing the music of the top icons in the music industry including MICHAEL JACKSON, THE JACKSONS, QUINCY JONES, WILL SMITH, CLIVE DAVIS, WHITNEY HOUSTON, PATTI LABELLE, DUSTY SPRINGFIELD, LOU RAWLS, HERB ALPERT, THE BEE GEES, GAMBLE & HUFF, and so forth.
Martin worked heavily in producing, and arranging music with GAMBLE & HUFF (Kenneth Gamble & Leon Huff). Most of the classic Philadelphia R&B hit songs were arranged or produced by Bobby Martin, songs like "Let's Just Kiss And Say Goodbye".
Bobby Martin, Kenneth Gamble, and Leon Huff were a close family of music executives. Martin learned about Jehovah's Witnesses from Kenneth Gamble's mother (Ruby N. Gamble), who was a Jehovah's Witness. Martin was later baptized with Jehovah's Witnesses in the year 1976 in Woodland Hills, at an assembly hall where The Jackson's would attend their assemblies.
Martin has produced artists at Capitol Records, Columbia Records with Clive Davis, A&M Records with Quincy Jones, and Philadelphia International Records with producers Gamble and Huff, to name a few. Martin has produced and arranged multiple hits and has accumulated thousands of Gold & Platinum record awards. Bobby Martin is a Grammy winner as well. He won a very significant Grammy Award for the Soul Train theme song, named TSOP (The Sound of Philadelphia).
Martin's classic productions are heard on radio stations around the world, and he is presently working in the recording studio on new songs to soon be released in 2013.
