The Grammys appear to be rethinking the new award for Asian pop just weeks after BTS announced they would not submit their music for the 2027 awards.
โItโs clear from our numerous conversations with many stakeholders over the past two weeks that, regardless of our intent and desire to be even more inclusive, there are some artists in this space who feel that this category isnโt representing the music they work so hard to create, in the way they wish... The management and Board are committed to working together to keep pace with that progress and ensure the musicians we intend to honor feel truly seen and heard by our actions,โ Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. said in a statement.
Sources tell Variety that Mason and other Grammy executives have been in discussion with artists and execs representing K-pop, J-pop, C-pop, India and more. The Academy is convening its full Board and Awards & Nominations Committee to work with members of and leaders from this community to seek further advice on the category, as well as its process for introducing new categories and awards.

The Genius of Performer Taehyung: A Momentary Pause
Taehyung had only two lines during the FIFA World Cup Halftime Show, yet one perfectly timed pause made everyone pay attention.
It broke the flow just enough to make people look up and listen. Such a small detail, yet almost everyone reacted to it. Almost every reactor took note of the line change because this pause made them pay attention. Taehyung is truly a genius performer.
STAGE GENIUS TAEHYUNG
