melon 3,298 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I don’t like the song but undeniably giving it both big awards shows the GRAMMYs are taking diversity very seriously now (or trying to) and that has been their main image problem of recent years, plus Gags won 3 anyway... so not exactly disappointed heauxmatica Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She lost AoTY three times and against all odds lost again yesterday. She clearly has a strong following in the Pop Voters, since she won two there yesterday. But do the other pop voters who didn't vote for her, switch to Gambino instead in Record Of The Year and Song Of The Year? I think yesterday's performance will continue to make her polarizing, since old white dudes won't like that "Gaga" again. I think she should've done I'll Never Love Again, and have AoTY on lock for next year. I wish she had a better manager who helps her make these decisions. She doesn't always make the right decisions, but there's probably no one around her to give her counsel. MUSIC NOT THE BLING! who cares? She won 3 out of 5. Be satisfied with the wins, she clearly is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Record of The Year means the performing artist, the producer, recording engineer and/or mixer for that song. Not the "meaning" of the song. While TIA did have a better meaning, Childish Cambino did not perform the song better than Gaga in Shallow imo. And that is all it is, ‘your opinion” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
guyzplzstaph 172 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I like This is America, but how is it possible that everyone suddenly forgot that it is kind of a rip-off of American Pharaoh? That's what's bugging me tbh, that they chose a song that's not exactly original. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsterOfSpain 8,275 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 America's moral hipocrisy and the need to award "socially-woke" stuff so they don't feel bad about their racist/unequal society Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guillaume Hamon 5,563 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Well it's quite obvious "This is america" partly won for its message. Gambino had more well received tracks than this one yet TIA was the nominated one. Many songs from other artists were more critically acclaimed than TISA but didn't get a nod. They often give awards to songs for their message even if it's supposed to be ceremonies awarding "musical excellence". It could profits to gaga one day as well lol.
