Urban categories are an excuse to not award black artists in main categories. So they are relegated to the urban categories, they get nominated for the main ones, but they rarely win them, only the urban ones. It’s pretty much segregation, they might as well just call them the “black categories”. I’m glad they’re finally updating. How does renaming urban to something else make a difference in terms of the problem you present yourself ? Problem you present: There are separate categories used as an excuse/consolation prize for black artists so that grammys do not have to not give black artists many wins in main grammy categories. What do you think that changing the names of the category will change in terms of the purpose you think these categories currently serve ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you’re not aware of it but there is the Latin Grammy! It includes music from all different languages from Latin America Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
