The GRAMMYs are introducing their first Asian category at next year’s ceremony.
Best Asian Pop Music Performance will recognise K-Pop, J-Pop, C-Pop recordings that feature meaningful use of one or more Asian languages.
I'd rather BTS receive no nomination at all than be boxed into categories like this. It feels less like recognition and more like segregation, especially when they're more than qualified to compete in the main categories alongside Big Western artists.
“creating a new category just so bts do not win the main categories at the grammys”
the music industry keeps proving why BTS made aliens as an asian artist
bts BEEN a threat to american music industry so ofc they gon try their hardest to separate them from main categories as long as the industry plants & mediocre white artists don't get snubbed
Lmao, this category was obviously made to keep BTS out of the main categories. Now random nugu K-pop groups will get nominations, and they're not even being subtle about it anymore they just keep inventing categories to make it happen.
