Whitney Houston and Clive Davis are livid



Clive Davis and his biggest project yet, Whitney Houston, are livid that her new album I Look To You was completely overlooked for a Grammy nomination.  Producers pushed up the release date of the album to make it eligible for Grammy nominations this year.  Word is, they expected it to be nominated for album of the year, as well as other prestigious categories.    The album was certified platinum at the end of November.  Danja, who produced several tracks on the album had this to say to Billboard.com
 “I’m a little disappointed because she put together a classic album. Her overall comeback is something to be noted but I’m a believer that great people and great music will always show its head.”
Whitney's label also released a statement:
“Considering the level of critical acclaim the album received and the sales to date, one million in the U.S. and two million worldwide, we’re surprised,” said Mika El-Baz.
