Ewan Chaos Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Oh I just realized Perfume Genius was snubbed this year, slay! That album was meh and while I'd boohoo about less LGBTQ+ representation, we've filled in that gap with other artists Link to post Share on other sites
nuclear Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 The Shameful Tinashe snubs at the General categories Y”all did Twiggs somewhat Justice i suppose Link to post Share on other sites
Truth Teller Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Which panel member pushed Black Like Me for SOTY? The main lyric is great, but the rest is pretty elementary and the melody in the chorus is basically See You Again. Were y'all hesitant to give the slot to H.E.R.? Link to post Share on other sites

She’s the most nominated artist not to show up there. But I will say, her strength with the nominations was kind of a surprise after her showing during the submissions phase.

Achilles. Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Mickey Guyton was ROBBED in the country field so I’m glad we rigged nominated her in SOTY. Not loving the R&B Perf/Song lineups. Everything I voted for missed. We should have rigged Brittany Howard into the general field. 0 nominations? Really? Would have happily voted for Save A Kiss in Dance Recording, but the Jessie fans went another way so I’ll be voting Roisin Murphy. Maybe I’ll vote Jessie in ROTY, though. Kinda have to LOL at the way the BRP spent like an entire day discussing the AOTY lineup and in the end the only change we ended up making was dropping Rina and adding Chloe x Halle (though the process of making that happen was very convoluted!). Rina deserved the spot slightly more than the Beyoncé-payola’d sisters, though. Link to post Share on other sites

Ungodly Hour is nominated for Album of the Year though, and with the artist being nominated for Producer, it should be an automatic win for both I mean it would be an automatic win for both at the actual GRAMMYs Link to post Share on other sites

Absolutely, I especially would have loved at least ONE nom for Brandy & more for Jason. The country noms are kinda weird this year, not including things like Betty because we all knew Swifties were gonna push that through lol. Link to post Share on other sites
