I don’t know why BTS fans are still so invested in the Grammys. The Academy has already said it will move forward with the category, and more than 100 artists have submitted. Everyone else is moving on. What’s disappointing is that you’d think fans of artists who have reached the top would show less prejudice and more generosity towards other artists, or at least refrain from belittling and mocking them. Can you please leave our boys and girls alone? Instead, make sure the next batch of songwriters you want working with your group shares your stance on the Grammys, okay? Otherwise, next year that “magnum opus” might make the trip without them.
Why is it that when Latin and African categories were added, it was celebrated as global representation, but when it’s Asia, K-pop fandoms scream "racism" and "segregation"? The double standard is clear.
Big K-pop acts have the privilege to boycott, but big and small artists are not the same talent is recognized, not how large your fan base is. BINI submitting isn't about seeking blind validation; it’s about opening doors. P-Pop/OPM is here to prove the PH is a source of world-class music, not just a market. 🇵🇭 #GrammysFYC #Grammy #GRAMMYs
SB19 and BINI on why they submitted their music to Grammys’ inaugural Best Asian Pop Music Performance despite controversy:
“We see it as a door opening, not a box closing. It would show the world that the Philippines isn’t just a market. It’s a source of original, world-class music.”
LOL at the comments and QRTs from THAT fandom. The hypocrisy is actually WILD. 💀
The irony of crying anti-Asian racism while mocking Asian artists for submitting to the Grammys' Asian category is something else.
You're using racism as a shield to mask your frustration over your faves not winning or getting the recognition you expected, while ridiculing other Asian artists who are simply trying to get their music seen on a global platform. How does that make any sense?
You can criticize the #Grammys for its treatment of Asian artists without belittling those who choose to participate. You cannot claim to fight for Asian representation while mocking other Asians for taking an opportunity to represent themselves.
Let's be honest. This was really never about standing up for Asian artists. If it were, you wouldn't be looking down on Filipino artists for trying to bring their music to the global stage. You're bitter that your faves didn't get the outcome you wanted, Grammy celebratory cakes and all, so now you're taking it out on artists who have every right to try.
You don't get to weaponize anti-Asian racism when it suits your narrative, then ridicule other Asian artists for pursuing the very recognition you claim they deserve. That's not advocacy. That's hypocrisy.
And if you're genuinely against anti-Asian racism and advocate for Asian representation, where's that same energy when MAMA and AAA continue to center K-pop, while artists from Southeast Asia struggle to get the same opportunities and recognition?
Oh, right. You're perfectly fine with the system when your faves are the ones benefiting from it. Suddenly, representation isn't an issue when the industry favors your idols. 💀
So let's stop pretending this is about Asian solidarity. You don't get to use that card while mocking other Asian artists. If you only believe in representation when it benefits your own faves, then you were never fighting for representation in the first place. You were fighting for exclusivity, not equality. And the moment other Asians try or get a seat at the table, your so-called advocacy crumbles because suddenly, it's no longer about breaking barriers, it's about protecting your idols' monopoly on recognition. That's not advocacy. That's entitlement dressed up as principle.
The tantrums over the Grammys are loud, but the silence on MAMA and AAA is even louder. You call out an awards system for allegedly excluding Asia, yet stay quiet about awards branded as Asian where South Korean acts dominate the competition. If inclusivity matters, it should apply everywhere, not just when your faves feel left out. Funny how selective the outrage gets when the system you're defending is the one benefiting you.
@android_atin I wish that #SB19 will get to at least perform at the #Grammy Awards. I wish there’ll be legendary artists (like Paul McCartney, etc.) in the audience who’ll watch them and appreciate their music and the meaning of the lyrics of their songs, and notice their artistry.
@AboutMusicYT SB19 🤩
if the Grammys celebrates artists who break barriers, embrace their roots, and use their music to speak on the realities of their nation, then SB19 is exactly the kind of artist the deserves that recognition! 🇵🇭

These Filipino artists aren't even submitting with the expectation of winning a #Grammy. For them, simply getting considered for a nomination is already an opportunity to put their names and music on the global map. That alone can open doors, introduce their music to new audiences, and potentially gain them new listeners.
Even if just 5 or 10 people discover their music because their names appear on a Grammy consideration list, that's already a win. That's 5 or 10 more people who might listen to their songs, explore Filipino music, and become genuine fans. That's exposure. That's progress. And that's how you start building a bigger audience beyond your own country.
But that's exactly what these entitled BTS fans don't understand. They're so caught up in the mindset that everything has to be about winning that they can't comprehend how simply being seen by a bigger audience can already be valuable for artists who are still trying to break into the global market.
Not every artist has the same resources, reach, or starting point. Not everyone is operating at the same level of commercial success. And not everyone measures progress by trophies.
You don't have to understand an artist's goals to respect them. Just because your faves' Grammy journey didn't end the way you expected doesn't mean other artists are foolish for pursuing theirs.
Stop judging Filipino artists by standards and expectations that have nothing to do with their actual goals. They're trying to open doors for Filipino music, not prove they're better than your idols.
Sometimes, getting your name in the out there is already a victory. And you don't get to belittle that just because you can't see beyond the trophy.
