Considering the fact that Beyonce has yet to release an album that hasn’t been both wildly acclaimed and commercially successful pretty much proves that when she gets it nobody will think it was out of “pity”.

Nobody thought it was pity when Leonardo Di’Caprio or Martin Scorsese finally won their long overdue Oscars. Nobody will think its pity when Beyonce wins AOTY in 2026 or whatever
They'll give it to her when her influence wanes.

That's how they do.

That way in hindsight they can say they didn't shade Beyonce.

However they never reward her with anything major at the high points. That'd be too much acclaim to cap off a terrific, impactful year.

Y’all barking up the wrong tree, I don’t find any of her albums AOTY material and know I’m in the minority of thinking Lemonade was trash, shyt was gassed off her supposedly addressing cheating, the music was mid
Ditto

Renaissance was her best album since her first solo album

The Grammys will never give Aoty to an album that requires 50-eleven writers to come up with some hot sauce in my bag, release your wiggle bullsht.

If her 30 something other awards aren't enough, too bad.

Her albums aren't that good

Yet she has more Grammys than Mike and Stevie and Prince combined
The thing that bothers me is this erasure as if black artists have never won AOTY, and Beyonce is some punished figure taking arrows for black people everywhere. In reality Stevie won the award multiple times, when that shyt was way more racist than it can possibly be today. Jon Batiste won it two years ago. This just reeks of elitism where if Beyonce can't have it, nobody else's wins matter.
