James Corden teases 'very, very big performance' will kick off GRAMMY Awards

The 2018 Grammy nominees are dominated by people of color with artists like JAY-Z Kendrick Lamar Bruno Mars and SZA leading in most nominations

The 2018 Grammy nominees are dominated by people of color with artists like JAY-Z Kendrick Lamar Bruno Mars and SZA leading in most nominations

Song of the Year, which is awarded to a songwriter (or songwriters), has the fewest female nominees of all the categories we looked at.

The 52-year-old tweeted out an article from the New York Times about the gender disparity between nominees, with the Times citing a report that claimed that out of the 899 people nominated at the last six Grammy Awards, only 9 percent were women. He personally texted Kendrick Lamar who was also nominated and told him that he deserved to win and even posted a screenshot of his apology on Instagram. That 4,000 seat venue is part of the same complex as the main arena making it easy for nominees to attend both ceremonies.

Corden will oversee the Grammy telecast, starting at 7:30 p.m. Sunday on CBS, from Madison Square Garden in NY. A very special performance for raising awareness on suicide prevention will be put together by Logic, Alessia Cara, and Khalid, according to the Recording Academy. With the track up for three Grammys, the superstar might want to celebrate a landmark in Latin music, but history suggests he probably won't. She earned two Grammy nominations for the project. The singer is contending for best R&B performance for "Get You", while his 2017 release "Freudian" is up for R&B album.

Here's what to expect at music's biggest night.
