In lieu of the brou-haha over Mackelmore winning Best New Artist, I thought I’d be fun to go back in time and see the nominees and winners of this award in the past 25 years. The winners are in bold. I think you’ll see it’s not the first time people were not happy. Kinda interesting to see who is still making music and some where you’re like “where are they now?”
