[Devin]

May I ask why is Bad Bunny in Rap? 
 

Granted he a Spanish rapper but … next year may I beg for a Latin category?

It's the closest analog for him. I have gotten a lot of requests over the years for new categories: dance album, song from visual media, Latin, K-pop (which doesn't even exist at the Grammys!). I totally respect that music is more complex than this, but I'm also just one person processing ballots and it's already a lot of work, so I'm hesitant to expand it too much.

[nasa]

God Did outsonged each one of these 

[Devin]

Best Melodic Rap & Best Rap Song not too bad fr.

 

[creativity.]

happy that N95 got in for rap perf but was hoping we cry together would get some recognition

[wehavetostan]

It’s between this and Plan B… and this might just take IT!
