BTS' "ARIRANG" has the potential to be a strong contender for Album of the Year at the Grammys.
— The album is earning widespread critical acclaim, record-breaking commercial success, a rare combination this awards season.
remember an academy member saying, "it’s great for smaller artists to get recognized, but bts is way too big and important to fall into this trap" this category was opened solely to not give bts awards in the main categories and to downplay their achievements
jungkook postou um storie de um print do twitter!
no tweet está escrito: “nossa, jungkook trabalhou tanto quando era jovem que ele é um completo novato que não assistiu porcaria nenhuma quando se trata de anime. ah… nem quero lidar com ele, vai embora.”
jungkook rebateu a crítica:
“quem voce pensa que é (para falar algo assim)”
Recording Academy member Adam Merter Birson on BTS at the GRAMMYs 2027:
— "BTS ARMY should make a push for ARIRANG to win Album of the Year and not be marginalized with Best Asian Pop Music category. I think it's great if smaller artists could get recognized, but not BTS. BTS is way too big and way too important of a group to be falling into this trap."
BTS has officially crossed 100 BILLION on-demand audio streams across all platforms, becoming the FIRST Group in history to do so.
— They're also the FIRST Asian Act and ONLY the 7th Act in history to reach the milestone.
BTS occupies the ENTIRE Top 15 of the biggest K-pop debuts on Global Spotify in 2026.
— Meanwhile, “Swim” remains untouched, with no 2026 song coming close to its Spotify debut.
