i’m very confused as to why bts not submitting to the grammys this year is causing such an issue. because if bts weren’t ’bigger than the program’ like some of you claim…. what’s the problem?
Zeena Koda, in her interview for Variety about 10 AAPI Music Executives Making an Impact in 2024 told that The Recording Academy lauched the Gold Alliance aimed at giving visibility to AAPI artists.
The founder of Gold Alliance is Kevin Nishimura, who is currently the Chief Business Officer of Kakao Entertainment Global and Chief Operating Officer of SM and Kakao Entertainment America.
Oh lord. Now you see here's the thing. These people are not understanding one thing. Asian representation in music is a cause worth fighting for. But representation stops being meaningful when it comes at the cost of segregation. Creating spaces for Asian artists should never mean confining them to a separate lane instead of allowing them to compete as equals.
You cannot claim to champion Asian representation while boxing in the biggest Asian artist in the world. And when that very artist tells you that this approach is not representation but limitation, it's time to stop defending the system and start reflecting on whether you're advancing equality or simply repackaging exclusion.

@sweetstewpeaa Him becoming more famous was a blessing and a curse. Genuinely sick for him and any athlete who attracts these type of fans, as an Army I have 1st hand experience on how parasocial some fans are.
@sweetstewpeaa One side is busy wanting to know everything like stalkers the other is busy having a mental breakdown that a man is interacting with women and having fun. Can we please be normal?????
