Like, I would get it if no "major" female artists released any good releases (e.g. Witness please don't come for me. I just don't think it was impactful enough even though the music was good). But literally LORDE, GAGA, HALSEY. These three are pretty big in their own right, and ESPECIALLY Lorde since Melodrama was critically acclaimed. I wonder if the AMAs are doing it for relevancy or something. Because the nominations are WAAAY too bizarre. read this "The American Music Awards have nominations based on sales, airplay, activity on social networks, and video viewing" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sillynate 6,170 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 But 10 years ago when women ruled pop music, did men ever say they deserved more recognition than they received? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr S 8,675 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Hopefully more people notice this so the Grammys try to avoid the same mistake. Also if its based on Neilson data, is Drake really one of the artist of the year? He didn't sell that much and Passionfruit wasn't some huge hit. And why is Rihanna and Beyonce in R&B? What did they do THIS year? Shouldn't Sza be there? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
