I live in Istanbul. One side of the city is in Europe and the other is in Asia. If I ever decide to make music and submit it to the Recording Academy, I might just crash their category system. 🤣
'Today's Top Hits' playlist vs Spotify Global Chart
Is it really a top made by fans and music consumption as Spotify suggests? I did some math...
Results:
-54% of the playlist’s songs fail to reflect actual global consumption
-Local hits are artificially pushed worldwide
It's so beautiful to see artists speaking up. Atleast some are!
"As a small artist from a small city Hong Kong. Am i delusional to even think about the Grammys? Writing and producing is my artistry im proud of and i write songs in English. Only songs i make completely in Cantonese are "eligible". Im a voting member since 2024, i was a bit shocked to see this award got pushed forward without a conversation with the asian musict. community outside US. maybe they dides within kpop but im an non kpop asian small artist or im too new as a a member to be in wrote and song the conversation. But still, as a musician, one of the dream is to get a grammy, but maybe i Il just need to focus to build a fanbase and keep making good music...Hope its ok to speak out my thoughts at this moment. I love music and music is my life."

This small artist from Hong Kong's comments on the Asian pop category. She's also a voting member and shocked that this category got pushed without a conversation with Asian artists outside the US.
Glad to see this decision made by the tannies is pushing for this conversation, and that too BEYOND kpop because Asia is a very diverse and music rich continent

você percebe que o Grammy REALMENTE sentiu esse aviso de não participação dos meninos quando para pra analisar que eles apenas postaram e estão seguindo a vida normalmente... enquanto isso o Grammy postou nota, apagou vídeos deles, Ceo se pronunciou, votantes estão se pronunciando, gente ligada ao Grammy quase arrancando pêlo da xereca pra defender a premiação
e os meninos seguindo a vida, indo viajar pra cumprir os próximos shows sem se importar com toda essa bagunça acontecendo, eles estão seguros da decisão, eles sabem que não são eles saindo perdendo
The mistake these people always make is addressing ARMY as if we are a bunch of immature teenagers and not intelligent, eloquent women who have made it our business to study the music industry and its institutions inside out
