grammys have always avoided awarding non-american artists.
they constantly introduce new asian, african and latin categories just to leave the biggest awards for their national artists.
when you value music based on where the singer is from, you’re not awarding talent anymore.
Ahora cualquier grupito nugu que gane ese premio va a valer mucho menos que las palabras y la postura de los chicos sobre no venderse y perder sus raíces
Taehyung is truly something else. He posted about BTS’s decision to not submit their music to Grammys over a screenshot showing that he reached Master, the highest rank, in the game's Solo/Duo mode in League of Legends
In League of Legends' ranked ladder, Master is one of the highest tiers
for bts not to submit one of their biggest albums to the grammys this year is huge and i respect them for that. so much was poured into arirang and its message and i feel like it wouldn’t sit right with bts at all especially with the new category the grammys put out
💜 “we have decided not to enter the grammys this year. we hope music itself can be heard and loved rather than being distinguished by region or language. thank you to the army and everyone for always being with us”
and with this position of bts I reiterate what I said a few weeks ago:
the timing of a new “asian pop” category while a major asian act is having one of the most successful albums globally really exposes the problem: it’s segregation and not inclusion.
when non western artists are still underrepresented in major categories, it doesn’t feel like recognition for the asian music market, but containment. they deserve to win, but they cannot, so let’s give them a candy that excludes them a bit further. at least it looks pretty, right?
it’s unfortunate how the “how are you so shameless” line from aliens always hits.

🐨:We have decided not to submit to the Grammys this year.
I hope that music can be heard and loved for itself, rather than being distinguished by region or language.
Thank you to ARMY and everyone who is always with us.

bp has already disbanded, and jisoo is the biggest flop after lisa. The other two members have to rely on men. So stop talking nonsense and focus on that stiff robot.
@54hrtz BP are so big that they could individually appear on Hot Ones but then you have that small 7 member group that..... You know what... Nevermind🤣
