I think BTS decision is also about their legacy. They may not want to be seen as winners of a category created around their background, but as artists who were recognized for their music on the same level as other major acts. It's not about the award itself but what it represents
BTS didnt boycott your dumbass show because they think they can't submit to other categories, you hairless moron.
They boycotted it because they're against you separating music based on language and region.
How tf do you miss the point that they literally spelt out for you???
As a Singaporean Chinese, if I write and produce a pop song in Singapore incorporating Malay traditional melodies and Indian traditional instruments but write English lyrics, I’m just not Asian enough for the Grammys Asian Pop category
No, but Blinks saying things like, “They knew they weren’t going to win.” Mind you, their fave made a Grammy-winning artist lose a Grammy for the first time this year just because she’s Asian. But since it’s BTS, they’d rather be xenophobic than admit they’re right.
e quando no dia do grammy o jungkook abrir uma live fazendo uma macarronada picando uma caralhada de legumes na velocidade da luz e pegar mais views no weverse que a transmissão do prêmio
They went into the military on their own terms. They promoted their album without the media. They boycotted the award.
BTS are taking a stand and are done with being used.
They know who they are. They know their strength and they’re fighting.
I’m proud beyond words.
“imagine creating a whole new category to make sure bts do not win the main categories just for the members to not even submit for grammys”
the recording academy thought they were 10 steps ahead only for bts to be 50 steps more ahead. this is exactly why bts wrote aliens.
and while were at it! fuck you @billboardcharts ! dont you for a second think we've forgot how many 'rules' youve added over the years because youre scared of the success and power these seven boys have
