These Are Our Favorite Random Grammy Nominees

You crazy for this one, Grammys! Every year, we're treated to a list of Grammy nominees that sometimes make sense -- Beyoncé! Sam Smith! -- but often totally misses the mark (acts who have been recording for years are cited among the year's Best New Artists). This year, we took a close look at those "honored" to find the most random nominees. It's not that some of these folks don't deserve recognition -- hell yeah, Makonnen! --but we're actually surprised the Recording Academy acknowledged them too. Come Grammy night, we'd love to be shouting "You get a Grammy! And you get a Grammy!" to Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Wiz Khalifa, James Franco and the folks behind the "Guardians of the Galaxy" soundtrack, because sure, why the hell not?
