The vast majority of supposed musicians that win the awards are piss-poor talents. People still writing like Knopfler should be running away with Grammy's with ease.
There is little substance with younger listeners so it is no wonder they can't grasp the concept of quality music created by a true singer/songwriter. This is what music really is. Not all this hippity hoppity nonsense with stupid beats created by some geek on a computer.
Of course there are a couple of exceptions to this rule as it pertains to younger listeners as with Nora Jones, Alecia Keys etc. They actually write there own material and are good at it. Not exactly my style, but talented musicians nonetheless.
