Pop band Japanese Breakfast’s Michelle Zauner at the 2022 grammys, had said the only thing she cared about accomplishing most was getting a photo with BTS.
That’s what real impact looks like. Institutions can either catch up or get remembered for fumbling it.

If the Grammys decide to revoke that Asian Pop category, and thus making it harder for Asian artists (esp smaller Asian artists) to get recognized by the academy, then everyone can go thank that boy group for making that happen.
...a bunch of self centered and selfish pricks. +
if they revoke it this just proves we were right from the start it was only made to isolate bts 😭 you have to be so deep in denial to think it's abt highlighting asian artists when it was created the year bts returned and they’re the only asian act with multiple grammy noms
If the grammys remove a whole category that they claim was made to recognize an entire continent just because one single group didn't want to enter, doesn't that tells more about the grammys intention? Don't you think!?
asia has 50 countries and they only mentioned kpop,cpop,jpop lmfaooo as a south asian ive never seen something more racist than this fuckass category. rename it if they wanna keep it so bad
theyre throwing scraps in your face and youre treating it like a three course meal my god this is why bts will be the only group that leaves a mark because they know the difference between true recognition and a demeaning consolation prize
you can’t be sitting here saying bts didn’t pave the way then blame them for making it harder for an entire continent to be recognized by a racist institution. YOU said they didn’t open the doors for asia, but you blame them for closing it 🤨
If they revoke the category because BTS refused to be a diversity token, it proves that category was never abt true recognition. But sure, your favs can enjoy the leftovers and pretend they’re on the right side of history while doing absolutely NOTHING to challenge the system.
If the Grammys revoke the category because 1 kpop group was against it then it proves that the category was made for them. If it was truly made for Asian representation then one group withdrawing shouldn't bother them. BTS have the right to make a choice you don't get to dictate
