[Billboard] #BTS’ decision not to enter their music is a blow to the Grammys’ prestige, but the biggest impact could be the Grammy telecast losing a powerhouse draw.
The group has performed on the Grammy telecast twice. They contributed a remote performance from a Seoul skyscraper in 2021 and a live, spy-themed rendition of “Butter” in Las Vegas in 2022.
Other artists have declined to submit their music for Grammy consideration, often in reaction to what they saw as snubs, including Drake, The Weeknd and Morgan Wallen.

BTS join a growing list of major artists who have publicly criticized or distanced themselves from the GRAMMYs over the years.
— The Weeknd, Frank Ocean, Drake, ZAYN, Nicki Minaj, Halsey, Eminem, Kanye West and many others have also spoken out against the awards.
BTS are—and will remain—the only ones with the courage to make such a decision. After years of the Grammys benefiting from their global impact, responding by creating a separate category only highlights the treatment they have received. Their decision not to submit what many consider their best album speaks to principles, dignity, and a refusal to settle for half-hearted recognition.

When Namjoon called out the change ruled of music industry;
🐨"I don’t know if that’s right … It just feels like we’re easy targets because we’re a boy band, a K-pop act, and we have this high fan loyalty.”
