According to the 54th Grammy Awards description guide it is designed for solo, duo/groups or collaborative (vocal or instrumental) rock recordings and is limited to singles or tracks only.

The award goes to the artist. The producer, engineer and songwriter ca ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
