Adir Posted November 9 Posted November 9 IMHO, Fortnight should have been nominated instead of us. (no shade to Gracie, it's a good song) However, LEVII'S JEANS is a masterpiece and it's nominations is fully deserved.

Kill Me Posted November 9 Posted November 9 Alphabetical Advantage... Abrams, Gracie and Beyonce, Knowles are in the top 15 while Swift, Taylor is 400 spots below and most voters do not bother to scroll down enough to vote for it. This is why we get surprise khia nominations from artists in the top half EVERY SINGLE YEAR. 2024: Andre 3000 Collier, Jacob 2022: Abba Blige, Mary J ColdPlay Carlisle, Brandy 2020: Aiko, Jhene Black Pumas Collier, Jacob ColdPlay This may help her get lots of nominations but that doesn't help her win anything with actual competition like GF or pop categories. Good luck with that. 5 3 2

Soda Pop Queen Posted November 9 Posted November 9 (edited) not Swifties, of all people, tryna get buck over this. Talmbout some "guess we all know who the real grammy darling is" Like Taylor ain't sitting up in her house with a record 4 Album of the Year awards her damn self. Miss me with that bs because they're both "grammy darlings" for different reasons. There was no snub, just Grammys being inconsistent with their rules across the categories. It's the main reason you're not supposed to take the Shammys this seriously in the first place. This dog and pony show is for members of the music industry, not us.

Matthew Knowles submitted her name as Beyoncé instead of submitting her name with her last name like everybody else in the grammy database. He knew the tea. If you want proof look at how they rollout the grammy nominations, that'll tell you how they are listed in the ballot. Eg: Pop Duo: Abrams, Gracie Beyoncé Charli XCX Grande, Ariana Lady Gaga Pop solo: Beyonce Carpenter, Sabrina Charli XCX Eilish, Billie Roan, Chappell The stupid ***** Chappell wrote her name like it was her actual name. If you have a stage name, you usually don't treat it like it has a last name. She would have gotten so many filler noms if she inserted her name as Chappell Roan. Edited November 9 by Kill Me 1 3 1

Please not all these conspiracy theories to explain why Fortnight, of all songs in the whole wide world, was not considered in an award about QUALITY 😭 7
Kiss It Better Posted November 9 Posted November 9 4 hours ago, jwarded_ said: They let Kendrick Lamar have two nominations each for two rap categories but not Taylor Swift and Post Malone in the Pop Duo/Group Performance Category. iirc Kendrick initially wasn't credited on Like That (and every other songs on Metro's album didn't credit the features) but idk how that goes

Remainder that the last time she won one of those was in 2009. Edited November 9 by Kill Me

Nominating "us" was the perfect opportunity to force Gracie into the Grammy conversation, a win-win for both Taylor and Gracie. Edited November 9 by Spicy Pisces
Jon Snow Posted November 9 Posted November 9 I explained it here: 10 hours ago, Jon Snow said: it's probably that two Taylor songs split the votes between them. LEVII'S JEANS probably got more votes than Fortnight, so Fortnight was kicked out cause Post can't be nominated with two songs Beyonce only had one song and Post Malone voters probably preferred LEVII'S JEANS cause he sings way more there and his performance in LJ is better then in Fortnight. And one Taylor song got kicked out for the other, even though Fortnight could've gotten more votes than Us There's no conspiracies or fraudulent nominations, it makes perfect sense

Why should Beyonce go by her full name if others go by their stage names? She never released anything as Beyonce Knowles, just Beyonce. That's how she should be credited, just like Rihanna or Madonna 1
Arrows Posted November 9 Posted November 9 Or it was Gracie Abrams ft. Taylor that blocked Fortnight. We don't know which one happened
Feanor Posted November 9 Posted November 9 Abrams, Gracie - "Us" Beyoncé - "Levi's Jeans" . . . . . Swift, Taylor - "Fortnight" Grammy voters are notoriously lazy, and they voted for the Taylor song they saw on top of the ballot.

The names on the list are in alphabetical order using the last name, except artists that don't use it in their stage name, therefore when voting Bey's name is towards the top which made LJ rack way more votes than Fortnight, automatically disqualifying the later since Post can't be nominated for two songs. At the end of the day both ladies got nominated in the category so who gives and LJ is a smash that got away…
ericcartman Posted November 9 Posted November 9 Is that really a rule? It's so odd that Fortnight got enough votes for ROTY but not here?

He knew the tea. Her first name was submitted because it was her stage name under which she released her music before, not because her father was rigging the system. The explanation on why LEVII'S JEANS and Us got votes works, but we were addressing their point that Matthew knew that she would get the votes if he hadn't submitted her last name. That can't be true since she was never going by her last name anyway. That's not a logical explanation, that's a conspiracy theory 1

But I see Jon Snow's post makes even more sense. Both ladies will sadly lose this category anyway even though they're the most deserving!
