I really wish she'd stop indulging them. I get that it was an aspiration for her growing up, but at this point they're practically mocking her. 

 

I don't think she 'deserves' anything, but Harry winning over her is such a clear indication the race problem is still there. The voting body has resentment toward her cult of personality and the fact she's a Black woman that doesn't stay in the lane they want her to.

Yeah, I have a lot of humble pie to eat this morning as someone who really willed her a win and (stupidly) believed the Grammys wouldn't be THAT dumb. They have a huge optics issue on their hands and yet still don't mind continuing with the BS.

  • It was the best concert of my life, bar none. Idc!    It was extraordinary, it was ineffable.  I knew I loved it based on the videos but I... Hey I don't know.    Best moment

    I know this award is a joke but the point is, she has cemented herself in history with the likes of Whitney and Lauryn. And on top of that she won an award for a genre that completely ridiculed and ex

  • Potentially #1 in the US, UK and Canada in the same week   

I do wonder if they're snubbing her cause of all the "Beyonce = God" rhetoric surrounding her name by fellow artists and the pressure they're making on her deserving the win? 

 

On another note, Alien Superstar is now one of my favs

It's definitely part of it. Imagine being in an industry where someone is deified and worshipped (at least on the surface level) while you work your ass off for no acknowledgment. 

 

People are jealous, but they don't get that Bey is being used as a lightning rod to ignite discussion and viewership. Trevor Noah praising her at the beginning of the show was clearly planned.

Yeah and I find those cringy speeches a disservice to her and her image. I'm sure Bey is low key embarassed and wishes they stopped talking about her like that. Grammy's probably think she already has all the praise in the world she doesnt need a big award to reinforce that notion.

No way in hell Harry won AOTY over Beyonce.  Literal fraud. 

It was clearly a political win, he knew the right people. He is the producer’s daughter godfather. :rip:
 

Idk why Bey puts herself there though, she knows it’s pretty much a game.

I truly don't think it was fraud. If you look at the anonymous voters talking to news outlets before the show, they were literally saying stuff like Bey's album drops being such big news made them vote against her.

 

It's a voting body made up of industry people and entertainment people are notoriously insecure and jealous. They don't want to see her win the big awards.

Between getting waitlisted and the racists on here salivating at her loss I'm probably going to act out and get banned. Remember me fondly. 🫡

Bey could be the sole song writer on her next album and she still would not win. They have given AOTY to albums that have used heavy samples and multiple song writers before.

This has always been a nonsensical argument. If anyone tries to talk to me about writers, I ask them to explain this:

Wtf?? My boyfriend was waiting to get them for us on thursday for the 15th june Cologne date.

Lemme sprint 

Just got my Club Renaissance tickets :jonny6: Im SOOOOO happy and it was SOOO chill to get them :jonny5: Thanks Ticketmaster for setting up the presale for Thursday and then making it possible to buy the tickets today. What a lovely set-up

 

I haven't watched the Grammy's in years, but per social media she looked great!

 

I already knew she was gonna lose AOTY, but it doesn't matter because it'll be the same thing with her next album. The Hive complaining will be right back at it again. But that's been the case for years now.

 

Now it's on to the tour and music videos :clap3:

We will all get see the Queen this year. 
 

Funny enough when you go through the regular presale is impossible but through that link, it’s easy. I wish for last week for Paris.

Totally agree that its not a corporate agenda (ie the GRAMMYS vs. Bey), but the voters don't like her. The 75 year old who mixes one song a year and has membership thinks she's a ***** that throws her ass and can't sing. I really think the narrative in the industry is that she has enough, why give her more?

@kimberly

Yes, I agree these things will weight against her. As well as song credits etc, lyricism (sexual topics etc). I think it genre bias is at the very top but its a bunch of seperate things combined.

Something that's truly dawned on me when I saw spotify unwrapped is that straight Men don't really use her music :biblio:

This is BS. Cuz a lot have moved on after 2017 and wholeheartedly wish she would stop going to the scammys.
