Who cares?

And who fault is that? Can't blame the thief, if you sat there and watched him steal your shyt.

Black folks have sold our avenues of production and blame white people. Make it make sense. Even sold our media platforms like BET. Today MJ's catalogue is being bought by Sony. How in the fukk is his music not being self published?

Because I don't see Mariah as that kind of artist that I'd put in the same pile as Radiohead

Mariah can at least sing, what can they do? Let me hear it

Radiohead pioneered a type of rock that sounds spacey and alien. The guitarist, Johnny Greenwood, is considered one of the greatest guitarists of all time. The subject matter of Radiohead songs tends to be mature and analyzes the role of tech in modern life and our reliance of it. Radiohead looks at modernity with a question and seeks to answer our place within it amid its own self perceived pointlessness. They're fantastic at creating mood and tone and pretty good at songwriting.

The only RH song I like is Creep so I won't pretend to be familiar with their discography but I respect your passion for their work. It mirrors my own. You are very knowledgeable.

The majority of this country is white. What y'all expecting? Tell me why I should be mad about this, especially given Beyonce, who this topic is about, doesn't make artistic, relevant, classic albums besides arguably Lemonade. Beyonce ain't no Janis Joplin or Aretha Franklin. She isn't even a Lauryn Hill or Stevie Nicks. She's not fukking with Heart or Diana Ross. She's mid as an artist. But I'm supposed to be mad because Jay is using his wife and platform to drum up social issues so his family can benefit?

Ok, cac

 

[Mike the Executioner]

Maybe all these artists should have made better albums. Then they would have won.

This is one of the earliest things I notice a decade ago when I was doing Grammy history. Surprise it's just now being called out this year.

 

[Space Cowboy]

Ok, cac

I'm black. I just love music in general and listed amazing female artists regardless of race. Whoever doesn't love Stevie Nicks doesn't love music.

 

[King Harlem]

Ok, cac

This kinda proves my point about biases.
You laugh at Stevie Nicks and Janis Joplin, but others who enjoy those genres of music more than you would consider them amongst the greatest female artists.

Kendrick Lamar got robbed every year he was nominated (not Mr morale it was midsauce)because white people decide what wins a grammy. Beck? Kacey musgraves?

You can’t put 2024 shyt on the history of music lol. Stick to now. Back in the day the competition was fierce. You might’ve had one artist killing the gane at points, but other artists were considered icons then too. Who are our icons now? People barely even care about music now. I don’t know how Taylor blew up like she did and how she’s maintaining it, but we are in the Taylor era apparently I mean there’s plenty artists that are getting some of these current stars out of here musically, they ain’t getting invited to the Grammys though. Every year around Grammy time. People stay saying “fukk the Grammys” while also being mad at who won or lost a Grammy. The go clown the BET awards or pretty much any black awards show. It’s sickening now.

Reasons why I want to get into the Louvre, but once we got our own museum in DC, I said fukk the Louvre. I wanna be in black museums

 

[TRUEST]

Why do the black celebs covet that award so much? Who cares about this white man trophy. Are you rich? Are you widely beloved? What you also need the white man pointing at you and saying wow also?

I never understood it either. I’d choose not to attend. If they said the awards comes with $10 million dollars. Ok. But no

 

[Sleepy Floyd]

Black people should boycott the Grammys

Saying Beyoncé ain’t Lauryn Hill is crazy
