Recording Academy member Adam Merter Birson says:
“BTS ARMY should push for them to win Album of the Year, not be marginalized in a Best Asian Pop category. It’s great for smaller artists to get recognized, but BTS is way too big and important to fall into this trap.” 🗣️

"Aliens" is the ultimate, unapologetic power move from a group that has officially outgrown the need for Western validation.
Grammys treating BTS like 'ALIENS' in their own industry is exactly why the song 'ALIENS' had to be made. It’s a brilliant, sarcastic flip-off to overt industry gatekeeping that proves BTS doesn't need mainstream validation, they define their own narrative.
Awards that added K-Pop categories after BTS’s global success:
🏆 VMAs — Added Best K-Pop (2019) after BTS’s impact.
🏆 EMAs — Added Best K-Pop (2021).
🏆 AMAs — Added Favorite K-Pop Artist (2022), with BTS as the first winner.
🏆 Grammys — BTS ، EJAE 🆕
@PopEmpirex All those prizes of the american industry are not relevant for people now. We choose who is the best and dont need a manipulated industry to tell us anything. #BTS_ARİRANG is the best album ive heard in more than 10 years and imnot sying it because im biased.
The Grammys are receiving MASSIVE BACKLASH for Introducing the "Best Asian Pop Music Performance" Award.
People are furious that Asian artists are being separated from the International Level.
@coerjm@AboutMusicYT All I know is you paid your be a verified account so you can earn and yes, you still need BTS in all your mentions to get a reaction or a comment, otherwise, no one gives a shit about your your entire life. 😂😂 I know truth hurts …
Why are these guys extra handsome whenever they are back to their own country??? And Kim Taehyung! What’s with your new hair and your new opening outfit?? Are you out for the kill???🥵🔥🤬 @BTS_twt#BTS_ARİRANG_BUSAN#bts_ari̇rang_worldtour_busan
When critics across publications praise an album's ambition, emotional scope, and cultural significance, that's not fandom talking. That's recognition of artistic achievement.
ARIRANG by BTS deserves serious Grammy and Brit consideration.
@eniemonica Today is worse, can’t even reach d infamous “sit tight” ! 1 gets to choose seat but everything is sold out. My wait was just 15 mins and I got in already but despite all the lighted area available, all sold out. Tried 5x b4 I was kicked back to quieting at 100kpeeps ahead of me!
@eniemonica I got in pretty early today yet everything sold out. I got in later in my vegas one yet I was able to buy tickets.. there is definitely something fishy going on with @livenationph ! I heard people who availed of the ticket assistant service were the only ones who got today!😡
Every time someone says BTS should be worried about another K-pop group, I genuinely have to laugh.
You're looking at a list with Michael Jackson, Drake, Bad Bunny and Taylor Swift, and somehow kpoppie brain still goes:
"Yeah but what about this week's K-pop chart battle?"
Bro, BTS left that conversation a decade ago.
That's like asking whether Michael Jordan should be concerned about who's dominating the local YMCA. 😭🤣😭🤣😭🤣😭🤣😭🤣
@spicevillains@oceanluvers When a dumb idiot decides to roast the leader of the biggest band in the world and fucks up… the 2nd hand embarrassment I feel for you 😂😂😂
