Best Video with a Message created for Born This Way teas though!

Well, i know it can be seen that way, but i'm not sure it was created because of Lady Gaga. I see this one far more forced, even the title is so ''Beyonce's New Award''

Breakthrough Long Form Video. Basically, the Lemonade category.

So there's no 'Best Video with a Social Message' this year?

At the time it certainly felt like a reaction to Gaga receiving only a couple of nominations (when she did rightly deserve more!), although this category does seem very catered for Bey (even if best long form video has been a Grammy category for over 30 years!). 

[Noah 26,933]

'Work From Home' got snubbed. 

[VersaceKing 419]

they announced "Social Message" yet?

[JustAnotherDay 8,402]

I'm living for Florence and Fka Twigs getting nominations! They better announce best video with a message soon so we can see if she got nominated (would Gaga get an award for that though, since she didn't even star in the video?)
