Eat The Acid Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Why did a a 5/10 mid way basic album like midnights win AOTY while black excellence is snubbed? 1 2 2
AxelFox Posted February 5 Posted February 5 SOS is more on par with midnights rather than records such as Lemonade and Renaissance so I don't get the pairing 10 5
Starkboy Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Why are we acting awards always go to the most deserving ones to begin with? 1 2
Zefierce Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Because Midnights didn’t have 100 people working on each song and was simply better than SOS. Seethe! 15 2 4 1 59
DiamondHoe Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Bc Grammy’s are meaningless, especially if you’re a woman doing anything other than riding the trends of the time renaissance, lemonade, NFR and tunnel are all recent examples 6 1
vale9001 Posted February 5 Posted February 5 (edited) Grammy stage not big enough for all the co writers and producers of the not winning three? So security protocol Edited February 5 by vale9001 2 1 17 1 9
Hurem Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Y’all gotta stop paying attention to Grammys, they’re getting more and more irrelevant each year 10 1
punisher Posted February 5 Posted February 5 they need to grab those fired pitchfork workers and replace everyone with them on the grammys board 2
KatyPrismSpirit Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Midnights has two writers per track. Midnights is almost 7x platinum in one calander year Midnights sold 1.6M units in one week Midnights has a 88 on metacritic Record breaking album like… 12 10 12
newaespa Posted February 5 Posted February 5 I don't even know what criteria you guys used to judge all these albums But on metacritics or whatever, Midnight is only a few points away from those albums The way you guys behave, make it seems like Midnight is some panned albums Go cry i guess, hope you can never sleep well 14 1 3
ttsmu Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Grammys are a joke. They do not award quality and talent. 5
favorite crime Posted February 5 Posted February 5 What does Midnights winning have to do with Lemonade and Renaissance. Also the disrespect of comparing the latter two to the generic trend-hopping playlist that is SOS 4 2

When Bey lost to Beck yall talked about Beck's musicianship, but then when Taylor wins yall talk about sales. The narrative just switches to whatever the Taylor finsubs can scrounge up to justify the wins. 9 24 1

Bonicap Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Because each year there is a voting and turns out a bigger number of voters like Midnights, which actually reflects most people's opinion as we can see in the selling or streaming numbers. Pretty easy. 3 1 1 1

If you can’t see how white privilege is the reason why Taylor has 4 AOTY’s which is more than every black woman in history combined then you’re either a racist or an ignorant dumbass. 28 12

They are called the main categories for a reason. The fact that Black acts are siloed off to the R&B and Rap categories while white mediocrity like Taylor, Harry Styles, Adele sweep the main categories is racist and that's why The Weeknd, Drake have stopped submitting. Ignoring that is willfully ignorant at best and enabling that behavior at worst. 11 5 1
Selegend Posted February 5 Posted February 5 well to be completely honest based on my opinion of course i think renaissance is too risky for the grammys commite and SOS is not that album people pretend it is lemonade on the other hand did deserve it. just my opinion tho. 8
