[NME] "NME has long opposed classifications based on specific genres or regions, stating that "pop music is simply pop music, regardless of geographical location, language, or race. In 2021, we argued that the Grammys shouldn’t add an Asian Pop category, writing: “Doing so might give a handful of Kpop groups new bragging rights and a shiny new trophy to display, but how much would it do for them in the wider world? If you’re not already interested in a particular genre or scene, the likelihood of you paying that much attention to a niche category celebrating its artists is low, so the chances of such a field bringing heaps of recognition onto Asian Artists also seems slim.”
“Segregating awards shows by language or region, as already happens with the Grammys’s Latin and “global music” categories, continues to perpetuate the othering of music that isn’t Western, white (until very recently Black artists also struggled to be considered in the main categories) and English-led,” we added.
"#BTS refused to submit in protest against the newly established 'Best Asian Pop Music Performance' category," giving significant weight to the criticism that the creation of a dedicated category would serve as a mechanism to exclude Asian Artists from nominations for major awards (General Field), such as "Album of the Year."
"Meanwhile, we gave ‘Arirang’ a four-star review when it landed last March. “In the days before #BTS made their historic live comeback in Seoul’s Gwanghwamun Square, a banner adorning a nearby building described the group as “Born in Korea. Play for the world.” It’s an apt characterisation of what they’ve always done – mixing the cultural heritage of their home country with global influence, an approach that lights up ‘Arirang’."

“Uniqueness often becomes identity👽 'Aliens, which expresses their aspirations for the world, surprisingly reached #1 on the iTunes charts in 78 countries.. It’s a song that explores the experiences of being an outsider in mainstream society through the keyword “Alien” Previously, BTS announced that they would not enter this Grammy Awards category, which is separate from Asian music, and ARMY joined in with 'Aliens.' 🙏”

"What I found wasn't just one of the biggest bands in the world. I found seven artists who have remained remarkably grounded through extraordinary success, who lead with conviction, and who never lose sight of who they are or who they do it for.
It's been one of the greatest privileges of my career to spend time with them and to better understand the extraordinary bond they share with ARMY. The trust they placed in me to tell this chapter of their story is something I'll never take for granted.
Looking back at these stills, I'm grateful to BTS, to ARMY, and to everyone who made this unforgettable year possible.”
