“Aliens” is currently #1 on iTunes in 51 countries worldwide 🌎

I don't think people fully understand the magnitude of this decision.

Some of the music industry's most respected producers, writers, engineers, and creatives worked on ARIRANG. A project built to the highest artistic standard. One producer even spoke publicly about hoping the album would receive Grammy recognition.

Then the Recording Academy introduced a category specifically for Asian pop.

And BTS chose not to submit.

Think about that. The biggest musical project of the year. One of the strongest commercial and artistic contenders. A project that could have competed across multiple major categories. It simply won't be in the race because the artists chose principle over prestige.

Moves like this don't happen often. When artists at BTS' level willingly walk away from the biggest stage in music, the conversation shifts because of what they refused to endorse.

best critically acclaimed album of the year, best selling album of the year and biggest tour of the year. bts has NOTHING to prove to the academy, let them rot!!!!

"BTS first act to-" not limited to kpop or asian pop btw.

[dictator mbapbella @7adorablereps]

kpoppies are not getting it.

we will wear the “bts is not a grammy winner” badge VERY proudly lmfao 😂

[adiba @780613]

the gag is bts knew they wouldve had a near guaranteed grammy win with this new asian pop category but understand that cosigning this category wld mean that ultimately asian language acts would be gatekept out of the main/general categories

[Liz⁷ 🪭 @arirangliz]

And I think it’s okay to admit that in all this, there is hurt.

The hurt of knowing how much love, artistry and sweat went into the making of ARIRANG, only to deliberately exclude it from being recognised in response to institutional tokenism and xenophobia.

[bah wishes to see bts⁷ @parqueer]

all the discourse about bts being 'desperate' for western validation whenever they released something, lets see WHO submits to that category 😂

“Aliens” enters top 3 US iTunes

Con normal en el #1 fácilmente ya tendríamos este logro nuevamente hace rato, pero Spotify una vez más decidió hacer de las suyas......

SI TODOS SEGUIMOS EMPUJANDO PODRIAMOS LOGRARLO AÚN, NO SUELTEN EL STREAM A ARIRANG 🙏
