Support the independent voice of Miami and help keep the future of New Times free.
Unless your studio nickname is Babyface or you wear shades with slats, the Grammys probably mean nothing to you. As a ego-massaging spectacle, the music industry's award show is even more irritating than the Oscars.
That being said, we think it's pretty awesome that "I'm on a Boat" -- the Saturday Night Live/ Andy Samberg parody video filmed in Miami -- has been nominated for Best Rap Collaboration. Why? Because we get to put the video on our blog again.
Keep Miami New Times Free... Since we started Miami New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Miami, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Miami with no paywalls.
