Roughhouse Dandy 1,892 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 It's not that she isn't getting grammys, it's that despite reliably dropping worthy projects, she somehow never makes it in the top awards of the night. She gets herself a flower or two, just not the bouquet. As for the "she'll be fine" "she's got enough" "give other artists a chance" etc etc etc.... yeah, she'll be fine without them BUT these aren't participation trophies and it's obvious if someone other than her dropped Lemonade or Renaissance, they'd completely sweep. But is whatever. We're still blessed with the music. Just dance y'all (gonna be okay) 💜 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TEANUS 9,544 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I will say it’s a bit ridiculous that Self-Titled didn’t snatch the award it’s year. However, that doesn’t mean every nomination not resulting in a win since then has been a snub. Lemonade and Renaissance just didn’t deserve it the way Self-Titled did, so until she releases an album with the impact, success, and quality of it, she’s not actively being snubbed in that category (or any in my opinion but that’s a different discussion) British social ladies with upturned pinkies, glasses clinking // xoxoTEANUS Link to post Share on other sites

This couldn’t be less true. I happen to believe these albums would have gotten less noms had they not been Beyoncé albums. Grammy’s have historically been strict about artists and their associations in the genre categories, but somehow she’s always allowed to compete wherever the music she released that year fits. Whereas other versatile artists are always pushed into their “normal” category and sometimes snubbed because the material then doesn’t fit the best in said “normal” category Edited February 7 by TEANUS British social ladies with upturned pinkies, glasses clinking // xoxoTEANUS Link to post Share on other sites

She won scraps category, and always get shut out from the main 4 awards in the last 4 albums she did and nominated for. And this is the issue for everyone who protesting. But this just isn’t true A quick look at her wiki shows that she’s been nominated for ROTY 5 times, SOTY 4 times, AOTY 4 times (5 with TFM), and has won countless awards in visual categories. Just cause you’re nominated a lot doesn’t mean you should win at some point. Look at Gaga’s history in the main categories or Diane Warren st the Oscars and you’ll see a whole different level of snubbing In my book, Self-Titled is the only slbum where she’s been truly snubbed in the main categories Edited February 7 by TEANUS British social ladies with upturned pinkies, glasses clinking // xoxoTEANUS Link to post Share on other sites
AnglerfishbraBENUS 3,833 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 i mean - it always feels like Beyoncé is the first person to tell you her album is AOTY especially with a title like Renaissance. i think she needs to let the music speak for itself a little more. i’d rather feel like she’s the GOAT than be told Link to post Share on other sites

River 78,173 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Renaissance is just another dance album that even Rihanna would say "me? I'm not singing this generic pop music" Artdoll was here xoxo 1 Link to post Share on other sites

She won three awards people, get over it. all categories matter. I think the main issue is she has been losing the AOTY award year after year after year even with HUGE records like self-titled and Lemonade. I don't think people are mad because of Renaissance alone. I think her past two records did deserve the award over Beck and Adele. The Beyoncé album was truly ground-breaking for the industry. If she only had won that Grammy before, losing this one would be okay. Gaga, on the other hand, has also lost AOTY 4x times but even though I'm a Gaga stan, I think that's pretty understandable since the other nominees had more deserving records.
