Grammy CEO speaks on The Weeknd omission, explains their process

[Jose P 23,341]

The way they didn’t explain anything 

[Ivy 11,603]

Blinding Lights is definitely a pop song. Him being black doesn't make it not pop

so I don’t think it shows a flaw in the process. It’s a long, arduous process and people take pride in it.

I guess as long as you take pride in something it’s flawless

Yummy is music excellence? LMAOOOOOJILK

[hijadeputa 3,482]

Idk After Hours is a great album that’s all I know

[Gagaism 9,922]

Oh yea, Yummy is pure excellence 

[Enzo 37,977]

I still think they erased him from the categories and replaced Blinding Lights with Black Par*de

[Magui 2,623]

Still weird tho... 0 nominations ? Weird.

"In other words, the Pop committee may have considered him R&B and the R&B committee considered him Pop."

THIS IS EXACTLY THE PROBLEM WITH THE RACIST MUSIC INDUSTRY AND THE COMMITTEES

The album is R&B-Pop, it could be nominated in all the categories without a problem.

Blinding Lights is more pop than R&B, while In Your Eyes is more R&B than pop

Those f-ckers just can't handle a black artist doing pop and being called POP

[Red 94,495]

Babble on I guess

[FfFfFfFF 54,014]

If anything i think their explanation kind of makes obvious the flaws of the system. If an album can be considered part of two genres it doesn't mean it doesn't deserve awards.

[Andreu 37,216]

So.... in other words... when they doubt between two genres, some artists get both and some others get none

k grammys

[Sister 9,907]

Show skipped~

Abel deserved AOTY, ROTY, and SOTY.
