Rap-Up.com || Who’s Seated Where at the 55th Grammys

There will be plenty of stars onstage at the Staples Center on Sunday, but who will be in the audience? The seating arrangements for the 55th Annual Grammy Awards have been revealed.

Hip-hop’s royal couple, Jay-Z and Beyoncé, score the best seats in the house next to Grammy performer Justin Timberlake and his bride Jessica Biel, while The-Dream and Tyrese fill in the rows behind them.

Young Money’s Drake and Lil Wayne grab side-by-side seats in front of the legendary Quincy Jones, with five-time nominee Miguel one row back. Best Short Form Music Video nominee M.I.A. (“Bad Girls”) takes a seat in front of Best Rap Album nominee Rick Ross.

Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz will catch a contact high from Snoop Lion, who is positioned in front of his “Young, Wild & Free” collaborator Bruno Mars. Lupe Fiasco will be surrounded by country superstars Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, and Hunter Hayes, with Melanie Fiona behind them.

See which celebs will be rubbing shoulders on Music’s Biggest Night.

@Chris, you already know he is, he couldn’t win last year because his album came out too late(after september) in 2011 so….

@Michelle M., shut the fuck up. Nas deserves that grammy. He’s so long in the game he deserves that grammy. Grammy’s are just fucked up because they never let the biggest rap legend alive win a grammy. Nas is the only one who kept it real

@Michelle M., Drake is a talented artist but Nas deserves this award, especially as it’s best Rap album. He’s never won a grammy in his 20 year career, that’s unacceptable.

@Chris, And how is that Drake’s fault? Nas not winning a Grammy in 20 years doesn’t change the fact that Take Care deserves a Grammy.

@Chris, Drake and Nas made good albums but Drake by the critics and the sales that he engendered merit the grammy of the best rap album it is necessary to recognize that Take Care is a big album he deserves to be rewarded… We speak to you of rewarded the best rap album not the career

@penfield Lab, This should be about rewarding art not sales. Both were well received but Nas album was actually even more critically acclaimed than Drake’s. I just don’t see how an album where a guy is singing half the album deserves to win best rap album over a classic 100% organic rap album.

@Chris, Drake rapped on every song on Take Care. If he did sing, he also had a verse where he rapped. So let’s not. When it comes to sales, Drake has the advantage. When it comes to GOOD music, Drake also has it. Take Care is PERFECT.

So let me get this right. They put Lil Wayne a couple seats over from JAy Z & Beyonce? And Kelly Rowland sitting next to Jay Zs BFF and the husband of (try had to be Beys new BFF) Gwyn? I bet Solo sits in between Wayne & Bey even though Kelly if friends with both.
