I’m very upset that rich people didn’t win an award.
The Grammys themselves market themselves that way. My only issue is that you fell into the same trap of not rating Beyonce (I don’t either) so you ignore Jay’s point. He said by your own standards she’s the most awarded but even SHE can’t win album of the year. If she can’t win, then no contemporary black artist can. You can only be the best of the black people. It’s the same way Kanye said he never won an award against a white person. And the award show has no consistency. Who will actually remember that Harry Styles album 10 years from now? But I’m actually annoyed by how much Beyonce seems to care for this award. Jay wouldn’t have said that if she didn’t care. Dude didn’t even start going to it again until she made him.

That poster has been negged for having shyt taste in music. That woman can SANG. Many of these songs she wrote herself, and is the lone credit. Beyonce is going up against that.

Neg that man. He has shyt taste in music and deserves to be clowned. He hides behind race but race doesn't know music nor soul.

Tbh, I never expected acceptance from the organization and I have one. I lucked out.
I think artists just want to be recognized though, and that award is recognition regardless of who you’re talking to.
Sometimes, if you ignore something for too long, you’re gonna get push back. I just personally never really cared much for the situation in general because it just seems like it’s an celebration event designed for the already wealthy and those who want to join that circle.
But, I guess there are enough black artists that want to be at that platform. And for quite some time when you really reflect. Just like the examples, it’s been happening since the 70s that black artists have begun to get notice but it’s only been 11 black artists that have won the album of the year

They will never. Getting nominated can’t put millions in your pocket. It’s not about validation. It’s about a machine that creates opportunity.
