we're not talking enough about the rule that says if a song is entered into the best asian pop category, it cannot compete in any other performance categories. i wonder why harvey mason jr didn't mention that part in his response
Funny how this whole situation exposed who really needs who. BTS posted few Instagram lines and carried on, while the grammys have been scrambling for days. Deleting reels and leaving BTS out of the conversation won't erase the group that helped take Asian music global.
According to Forbes, BTS' Las Vegas takeover generated an estimated $340M in economic impact. 260,000 fans attended 4 sold-out shows, 38 hotels joined the city-wide activation, TOUS les JOURS sales rose 68%, and the Arte Museum welcomed 5,000 visitors daily.
"if grammys revoke the category bc of bts" mind you all bts did was make a statement that they won't submit their music & they hope music isn't segregated
yall are just too used to your faves surviving on bts' leftovers you think they are doing your faves wrong 😹
Imagine that at your workplace there was an employee of the month, a black employee of the month, a Latino employee of the month, and an Asian employee of the month... I think that makes more sense now.
GRAMMYS DELETED THEIR REEL ABOUT THE BEST ASIAN CATEGORY FROM THEIR PAGE AFTER RESTRICTING THE COMMENTS FIRST, AND THEY DIDN'T EVEN MENTION BTS DESPITE THEM BEING PIONEERS LMAO

“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.' 🙏”

CONGRATULATIONS BTS
Songs by any ARTIST to reach most on #1 on iTunes in 2026:
#1. SWIM — 104 countries
#2. Come Over — 87 countries
#3. Aliens — 85 countries (NEW) 🔥
#4. Normal — 83 countries
all bts said was that they don’t want to submit their work to the grammys this year and at least 4 members of the grammys have gone on coke rants and crashing out about it but kpop fans swear the grammys dgaf about bts
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?
Every artist you named was born and raised in the US, identify and marketed as american artists, sing in english and has never released music in asian language. there's a big difference between being asian and being an american with asian ancestry.

We hope music itself can be heard and loved rather than being distinguished by region or language.
