The Grammys are reportedly coming back to New York City
The Grammy Awards will return to New York City in 2018 according to a report by the New York Times. Mayor Bill de Blasio's administration has been in contact with Recording Academy regarding the 2018 Grammy Awards and an official announcement is expected in the coming weeks. The Grammys were first held in 1959 and flipped back-and-forth between Los Angeles and NYC until 2003, the last time NYC hosted the awards due to the rising cost of production. “We’re thrilled the Recording Academy is in extensive discussions to return the Grammy Awards to N.Y.C,” added Neda Azarfar, a spokeswoman for the Recording Academy
