Some of the biggest most talented legends in music don’t win Grammys. It’s a well known fact Grammys committee is tasteless and nominates trash music. Example songs that are 99% samples, music albums that can’t chart inside top 200 etc. 

 

So let’s look at the elite list of musicians that write their own music, play several instruments and their talents are too complex for Grammys commitee Basic taste to comprehend. 
 

The Beach Boys

Jimmy Hendrix 

Avril Lavigne 

Bob Marley

Janis Joplin

Tupac

Guns n Roses

Bjork

The Who

Diana Ross 

 

Who else is in this elite group of LEGENDS?

 

 

 

 

Add Notorious BIG to that list.

Elvis Presley 

the avril slip 

Jojo makes no ******* sense. I can see how her first two albums didn't get nominated cause she was so young even though they were great. but there is no excuse for good to know and trying not to think about it not being nominated

 

dawn Richard too has been disrespected. the fact that she has consistently released critically acclaimed music and not been nominated for a grammy. has groundbreaking visuals with no budget and hasn't got recognition for a grammy or VMA is wrong

After a strong investigation it is determined that no lies were spotted. 
 

Jojo & Brandy deserved so much better. 

Good to know album & Brandy borderline song being completely ignored in the same year was a crime.

I also forgot tinashe. Aquarius, 333 and especially songs for you deserved nominations as well as wins for at least rnb categories. 
 

also the fact that summer walker has released too albums that will be viewed as classics and not even a nomination 

 

and don’t even get me started about janelle not winning a Grammy

Aurora

Lana

Bjork

Sigrid

Basically all of the artists that never ever got an award or always get snubbed. I don't get why ATRL seems obsessed with the Grammys though, like... isn't it being successful, famous and impactful much more relevant and important than being nominated by a group of old rich men ?

Weyes Blood

Janelle Monáe

Kimbra (I know she has one but she doesn't have a SOLO one)

Marina

Lana Del Rey

Perfume Genius

Modest Mouse

Kate Bush

Joanna Newsom

Kelela

Björk

Mitski

 

I do find it amazing and beautiful that St. Vincent has won several grammys though, and she deserves many more

Example songs that are 99% samples, music albums that can’t chart inside top 200 etc. 

so if it cant chart its doesn't deserve awards

 

anyways all of these acts have been nommed for grammys so i dont get the point 

 

 

 

lana ofc. nfr shoulda been aoty

Lana Del Rey

 

God the grammy's are such a joke. I can't comprehend the fact that The Beach Boys, Jimi Hendrix and Bob Marley don't have grammy's. That really tells you everything you need to know, they dont matter on bit

Literally pointless. 
 

Diana Ross as well  Abba and Queen were also grammyless until movies about their careers were made. An even bigger joke - those two artists have some of the most iconic discographies and they weren’t recognised by the Grammys during their time. 

Trying to sneak Avril Lavigne onto this list  

Katy Perry

Meanwhile so many winners ended up being forgotten or a mere footnote when looking over impactful music from their respective years. Just shows how having your music resonate with people is worth much more than any award voted by out-of-touch industry people.
