PartySick 158,264 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 The best of the best in the music industry are women, wtf is he even saying  maybe if he'd learn to stop glorifying such mediocre stuff (aka the stuff that most male artists seem to put out) then we would be able to take the Grammy's more seriously these days. What a joke. đ Too cute to be this overworked and underf*ckedđ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

anomdepllume 393 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 This is the most unimaginably stupid comment I've ever heard in my life. Women dominated the categories, and it was YOUR organization that rewarded mediocrity. This isn't even just about Gaga losing for me, this is a sleight to ALL of the women who performed tonight, who pulled in the ratings for the show, and all the women who were nominated. What a jacka$$. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PartySick 158,264 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 "Women need to step up", how about you step down so someone with some sense can get in there? đ Too cute to be this overworked and underf*ckedđ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Gibson 3,472 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Has he listened to Melodrama? CTRL? Rainbow? After Laughter? Lust For Life? Joanne? The Weight On These Wings? El Dorado? You can easily tell many female great albums in the last period that were way better than many of those included in the GF and many other categories. One of the reasons people said 2017 was a bad year for music it was because the biggest hits were trashy music by bland male artists doing boring music even tough the ladies SERVED the last year. How do you call 24K Magic, your "Album of the Year" a "step-up"? Please, give some respect to the ones that work hard in this industry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Women don't need to step anything up. He needs to hang it up and the academy should vote a new president. Its true. Outside of kendrick all the best albums this year have been from women. Rainbow, melodrama, joanne, after laughter, SZA, halsey, charli xcx, cupakke , and i am missing a lot. They were all paid dust Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bumblebee 2,528 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 ÂŤIt has to begin with⌠women who have the creativity in their hearts and souls, who want to be musicians, who want to be engineers, producers, and want to be part of the industry on the executive level⌠[They need] to step up because I think they would be welcome. I donât have personal experience of those kinds of brick walls that you face but I think itâs upon us â us as an industry â to make the welcome mat very obvious, breeding opportunities for all people who want to be creative and paying it forward and creating that next generation of artists.Âť Thatâs his full quote. What media are now trying to do is to completely rip it off itâs context  and make it look as though the Grammys president said that women lost awards because they didnât step up. He didnât, though, he was answering the question on why women didnât win more awards and what can be done so that they could win more. He gave his vision on the formula: have creativity in hearts and souls and be the sort of musician to step up, and maybe you would be welcomed and the members would vote for you. Which sounds sort of right for any musician who wants to succeed, regardless of gender. He also said that there need to be more female engineers, female producers, and more women on executive level, because women then would be better represented in the academy voting members. People tend to forget that there is no single Council in the Academy which determines the winners. Hundreds, if not thousands of members vote in a free voting, and the question itself should have been posed in a different manner:  how can we make sure that more members vote for women at the Grammys? Well he meant that we need to have more women with the right to vote in the Academy in the first place, by having more female engineers, producers and executives. And also more creative and heartful and envelope pushing music to match that. The way people wish to start the drama is beyond. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
