We found something to agree on. :ehh:

The Grammys definitely isn't just about who sold the most records or has the most appeal with young adults. I just think their process is very transparent. It's easy for them to give Best Rap Album to Cardi B while giving Album of the Year to someone that has all the critical acclaim. Except in cases where it's a genre they don't have a lot of respect for (DAMN. having won a Pulitzer Prize, but not Album of the Year).



They surveyed 1,000 random people and got this response. It doesn't mean anything to me. I could do the exact same thing and prove that the biggest genre in the country is rock. But rock music isn't on top of the charts and being streamed more times than any other genre. This survey just proves that out of this sample of a thousand people, country is the most preferred.

And to add to that, the majority of people who were polled were at least 65 and white. I guess country's really hot out there in the streets. :troll:
what demographic do you think spends the most time streaming music & reading about gossip?

It aint older people.
Its kids.

The genres that still sell physical albums

Yes. And? :dwillhuh:

Not even trying to be sarcastic, but I literally don't understand what I'm responding to here.

Also, it's worth pointing out that according to the article you posted, hip hop is the most popular genre in the country. But since no one conducted a survey and it doesn't sell that many physical copies, it's not verified. :skip:

So we all sayin fukk the Grammys but we mad cuz cardi b won and she's not black

And Kacey Musgraves won the last award instead of a rapper

But if cardi won instead of Kacey we'd still be mad cuz she a rapper but she not black

And we mad jlo was part of the Motown tribute on the Grammys cuz most likely everyone on Earth is gonna be on the official tribute show in April and they didn't wanna double down super hard here

What else we mad at for the Grammys we not supposed to care about?

I just wanna make sure I'm keeping up:troll:

Stunned that This is America also won song of the year. It was relevant for a couple of weeks then faded into the background. The video is what made the song. The song itself holds no weight without it. God's Plan was huge. Huge.

yeah any of those other songs nominated, you couldnt escape this year

i heard 'this is america' 2 times. once when i watched the video and once in a rental car in st louis or something.

it should def win for best video or be nominated for that with the mtv awards or something but that was kinda wack

the grammys are overall a joke & just a spectacle

'musics biggest night' but they only highlight such a small representation of music (mainly pop)

its nothing to even get upset over, it is what it is. they celebrate very little of the music i listen to
