We at Babylon Telecom freely acknowledge that our views on the Grammys should potentially be taken with a grain of salt. Although we like to believe our opinions are objective, and not at all influenced by the fact that we were shut out for the umpteenth year in a row, we are fully aware that there are those out there who might see it differently.
That said: Why are we talking about the fact that some people haven’t heard of the Arcade Funeral, when we should be talking about the fact that some people haven’t heard of Justin Bieber? Those of us in the “industry” know that nothing less than total ubiquity will do! Anything short of a mass neural imprint is an absolute failure!
Look, the kid pulled himself up from the mean streets of Shakespearetown with only a massive multicorporate PR campaign in his corner! Are we talking to ourselves over here?
