It’s that time of year again..

Big congratulations to our long time friends Jason Mraz and the Beastie Boys on their noms this year! The Beastie Boys nom caught us all a little off guard since the record hasn’t actually come out yet, and I gotta say – Too Many Rappers is a great track but the rest of the record. HOT DAMN. Whenever that bad boy comes out, it’s gonna be a BIG record we predict. At least we’ll be stoked to finally get to play it in the studio.

Jason Mraz – Make It Mine – Best Male Vocal Pop Performance
Jason Mraz & Colbie Caillat – Lucky – Best Pop Collaboration With Vocals
Beastie Boys & Nas – Too Many Rappers – Best Rap Performance By A Duo Or Group

And of course a big congrats to our friends over at Dangerbird on the Silversun Pickups Best New Artist nomination, and good ol’ Dave Gottlieb on the two MGMT nominations for Best New Artist and Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals.

And lastly a big congrats to one of SAM’s newest clients, The Lonely Island. Best Rap/Sung Collaboration… Crazy, right?

The Lonely Island & T-Pain – I’m On A Boat – Best Rap/Sung Collaboration

There’s some stiff competition this year in all of these categories, but you know who we’ll be pulling for!
