On Wednesday night, the 2011 Grammy Awards nominations were announced during a special concert on CBS.
The first surprise of the evening was that raspy folk-soul singer-songwriter Ray LaMontagne will be up for Song of the Year for ‘Beg Steal for Borrow.’ His competition for that award includes Eminem, Cee Lo Green, Lady Antebellum and Miranda Lambert, who also performed at the event. Less surprising was that Florence and the Machine and Mumford and Sons will go head to head with Drake, Justin Bieber and Esperanza Spalding for Best New Artist.
In the Album of the Year category, Arcade Fire was the sole straight-ahead rock nominee, garnering a nod for ‘The Suburbs.’ They’ll face Lady Gaga, Lady Antebellum, Eminem and Katy Perry in that category. For Record of the Year, which goes to the artist as opposed to the songwriters and producers, Cee Lo (for the song otherwise known as ‘Forget You,’ as Selena Gomez and host LL Cool J put it), Jay-Z, B.o.B., Eminem and Lady Antebellum were nominated.

My friend just pointed out to me that he needs to consolidate his student loans to make repayment easier and more affordable. He found the best student loan consolidation available so that he could manage his loan repayment process better!
