It is clear how deeply disrespected the boys must have felt to make such a definitive decision.
As fans & observers, we often fail to put ourselves in the artist’s shoes or consider their perspective when controversial category decisions are announced, who’s been in the industry for years and done wonderful things to gain the respect they deserve. BTS is fully aware that their work deserves recognition in the main categories, leading them to distance themselves from the Recording Academy's biased choices.
It is heartbreaking to see artists feel so consistently undervalued that they choose to withdraw from the conversation altogether just to protect the integrity of their hard work.
BTS members on their decision not to submit their work for this year's Grammy Awards:
"We have decided not to submit for the grammys this year. We hope that music can be heard and appreciated for what it is, rather than being defined by region or language. Thank you to Army and to everyone who has always supported us."
