Latin Regueton Artists boycotting the Grammys

[tomsches 17,286]

I mean, just give one of them a grammy. Since literally every reggeaton song sounds the same it would be like all of them had one. 

[Katherine 1,763]

Quizá si su música fuese de calidad... Aunque los Grammy ya no juzgan por calidad, sino popularidad.

[Garcia 11]

Latin Grammys are a joke anyway. It is a popularity contest after all. The VMAs of the Grammys.

Well they would be nominated if they didn't release the same song four times + remixes with other singers each year

Exactly this.

If you want a Grammy then create something that takes you more than 10 min to make 

You leave Just Dance, Poker Face, and Born This Way out of this

[Ikvs 2,576]

Well, maybe make quality music? lmao

[River 101,741]

 

Just nominate this and give it a Grammy

[Bizcochito 5,313]

LA ROSALÍA and Aitana ending these tragic boring fugly male reaguettoneros.  The Grammys can choke for paying Paloma Mami dust tho

The question now is, will ROSALÍA boycott the show in support of the genre that she’s getting even more famous for throughout Latin America and the US?

HELL NO! lmaoo she better not. Especially since she's one of the frontrunners to win AOTY, the first female since Shakira.

Ok, lemme give the point of view of someone who lives constantly hearing their music: it was time for the grammys to look up for true artists, or at least not mediocre ones. They (especially Anuel, ew) definitely DON'T DESERVE nominations 'cause their music is trash. They literally re-do the same beats/melodies all the time and that's not grammy-worthy, they lack quality and that 'latino game' or gang or whatever the **** they call it is all about "knowing the formula of what people like to listen/dance to". That whole machine of latin fast music has to stop. Innovation and originality but most importantly composition deserved better. Music is not an easy-mode game.

As someone who saw this genre blowup during my teenage years and still enjoy it, I agree. It’s recycled beats and formulas 90% of the time and most of the artists sing about the same thing over and over and over. I might sound crude, but it’s not a genre that really scream grammy worthy.

Which is fine. But why is ROSALÍA nominated for urban with Con Altura? Why doesn’t the same thing apply to her? I see people here praising her but Con Altura sounds like any other regueton song.

The lyrics alone make a difference compared to those artists. 

Honestly all I care about is El Mal Querer. 

[Jose P 23,341]

I’m sorry but... Regueton is mostly trash. Anuel especially is ultimate garbage. I wouldn’t even call these guys artists. Terrible auto tuned voices with atrocious melodies and lyrics that are the same in every song and just make you wanna kill yourself.  
Daddy Yankee is one of the few decent ones tho.

Why isn't there a best Reggaeton Song? I don't understand why Awards can't keep up with modern times honestly

I’m specifically talking about Con Altura. There’s nothing special about its lyrics. I’m not surprised but I find it funny how people here are praising her and love Con Altura, when it sounds just like any other regueton song. While at the same time, shitting on other reguetoneros. And yes, I do enjoy her solo project. El Mar Querer is a great album.
