His point is that, if legendary artists that have recorded some of the most time-honored albums in music history have been deprived of Grammies, then the Grammies are not representative of what constitutes good music. So Evanescence winning a Best New Artist Grammy is not an indication that they perform good music. I'd have to say I agree with him.

What's sad is that I would imagine that the majority of the people he's talking to have no idea who Curtis Mayfield is and will probably never take the time to check out some of his music to see if it's something they would enjoy. They'll continue to be spoon-fed whatever flavor-of-the-week crap the corporations deem worthy of dropping enough cash on to promote to radio stations and to film cool looking videos and a large portion of the public will continue buying it up because they won't take the time to actually search out music for themselves.
