This is how you know the Grammys have lost prestige, when you can't get Beyonce, Taylor & Adele to perform at your awards show. And there was no reason why SZA couldn’t perform Kill Bill
i may be uniformed but that might be because the song was released very close to when the ceremony was going to happen, so maybe there wouldnt be enough time for rehearsals. Regardless, the Grammy's did SZA dirty when she won NOTHING for ctrl
Also having huge artists like The Weeknd and Silk Sonic pull their music from consideration. The Grammys is just a music popularity contest at this point. Barely a step up from the VMAs or Billboard awards in terms of prestige.
@@W4TSKY Is it though? I mean Bonnie Raitt won song of the year against some really big names. Her song was definitely the least popular out of the nominations. But you're right the Grammys are very sketchy.
@@AnneettaLife It is a popularity contest. They just award unknowns once in awhile to try maintain their prestigious image. a couple years ago, the former Grammys CEO came out to say that they rigged the awards in favor of Ed Sheeran
Honestly I lost all the little respect I had for the Grammys when they snubbed "After Hours" and "Blinding lights" from getting a _nomination_ . It really showed how much they "value" musicality, artistry and how much they put the interests of public into consideration.
I agree the Weeknd was snubbed, but the public loved Blinding Lights and After Hours. I mean Blinding Lights is probably the biggest song of the last decade and the most streamed song of all time on Spotify, unless I'm not understanding your logic.
@@crystalsnow1138 maybe I worded it wrong, but I meant exactly the fact that the public loved the album while Grammys just completely ignored it and it really shows how much they care about success and critical acclaim
@@galitzineeand there was politics behind it. That year The Weeknd was headlining the Super Bowl halftime show. The Grammys were on a week before. Months prior (when the nominations were out) it was reported that the Academy didn’t want him to perform at both the Grammys and the Super Bowl (which doesn’t make sense to me still to this day). Shady business behind the scenes.
The Stan roundtable felt like a short-sighted attempt to make the younger generations/angry stans feel more seen and connected to the Grammys. Alas, we're just as disillusioned as we ever were.
Beyoncé’s achievement is amazing to see. But the bulk of her awards have been in the sub categories…the “typical” “black” categories (for want of better words)…”Urban”, R&B and Rap. Not winning AOTY again was disheartening to see. The most honored artist in history and she still isn’t worthy of THE biggest award? And I want to also make a wider separate point: the academy does not like to award black females the AOTY award. There have been very, VERY few winners, the last one being Lauryn Hill in 1999. I’m not saying black women should win because they’re black, but there have been several deserving black female artists who should have won AOTY since Lauryn…
at this point it's like they're giving her awards for the sake of giving and not because they actually consider her to be worth of them. after her self-titled album she stopped producing music that white people could deem as "relatable" and suddenly everyone started claiming that she's overrated and undeserving of her awards, let alone of something from the main 4. i don't think she cares about that as much as i do though lmao, she's still the artist with most grammy wins either way.
@@Kevin-rg3yc Janelle Monae wasn't even nominated for AOTY and I'll remember being pissed off bc what the hell. The scammys really have a black problem and it gets worse with black women 🤦🏾♂️
For lemonade I think maybe she should have won but not for this album, this album did not really do anything for me, honestly bad bunny should have won he had an all Spanish album yet was aaallllll over it was really good, I also liked harry and lizzo album
The worst part about the GRAMMYs this year is they've hyped this record breaking accomplishment by Beyoncé yet NONE of her 33 awards are for the big 4 categories... but Harry Styles can get on stage and say "things like this don't happen to people like me" when it's been 25 years since Lauryn Hill won AOTY. The last black woman to do so.
The comment wasn't about colour, it was about music artist in general, maybe a little unfortunate choice, but its not fair to blame him for the choice, its the Jury that should be blamed
@@jarne_tpwk Nah it is about color and i would go as far to say its about gender too. Harry is the typical "White man from small town makes it big" story. It always happens to "people like him". That comment is distasteful and it shows lack of awareness.
i definitely agree. i’m super proud of beyonce, but her breaking a record for wins doesn’t take away from the fact that the majority of her wins came from categories that the academy forces black people into. she’s consistently impacted the culture and built upon her artistry with her albums, and the grammys love to use her name to get ratings, but they never give her any of the big awards. it’s honestly pathetic. also with harry, i think he was. referring to how he didn’t grow up with music connections/had to actually work toward getting to where he is now. it was definitely a poor choice of words/miscommunication. i don’t think he meant anything bad by it
I might be salty, but the fact that MOTOMAMI wasn’t even nominated Album of the year even tho it had a fair amount of fame, being such a great and diverse album and have high critical praise, for me is a joke
Yeah it’s sad, it had a devastating effect on his performance. At the end when the wheel stopped they were finally able to perform what they’d rehearsed
there was. his dancers confirmed that the turntable thing they used for the performance was spinning the wrong way. and harry kept signaling that he was having technical issues
The Weeknd had more streams on Spotify than the Grammys had views just in the 3 hours the Grammys were airing. That is the best thing about the Grammys this year easily
Didn’t watch the show! But I did was Steve Lacy performance and he killed it!!! Glad he won, wish he could’ve shared an acceptance speech. Beyonce is a legend. The grammy’s should be ashamed that she walked away with NOTHING for lemonade. I won’t forget! Congratulations to the winners!
for harry performance, the turntable was turning the wrong way but bc they were on live tv they couldn’t really do much so they had to do everything in reverse :(
Those were not Bad Bunny and Rosalía's first Grammys, they've won before (Bad Bunny with YHLQMDLG and El Ultimo Tour Del Mundo, and Rosalía with El Mal Querer). All well deserved tho!
@@thalesmatheus6011 I don't think it's specifically about the AOTY that she lost against Alanis Morrisette's Jagged Little Pill which is still a, classic, iconc and legendary body of work that changed the landscape of popular music at the time for female artists in the alternative rock scene from Michelle Brooks' Bitch which is You Outta Know 2.0 to Shakira earlier works, Avril Lavigne, Pink, Kelly Clarkson in the 2000s. However, Mariah was sabotaged by her then husband /head of Sony music, Tommy Mottola and she lost all 6 of her nods. AOTY to Alanis, One Sweet Day ft Boyz Il Men which spend a record breaking 16 weeks at number 1 on the hot 100 lost ROTY, SOTY to Seal's Kiss From a Rose, Fantasy and th remix with ODB which popularized pop and hip hop collabs lost best pop vocal performance to a Annie Lennox song that no one remember today and she lost best pop album too
I first lost respect for them when they asked Michael Jackson to perform at the Grammys in 1988 (a revolutionary performance btw) and didn’t even have him win at least ONE Grammy for his album “Bad”. That album not only being one of the best selling albums of all time, but had such ICONIC songs like smooth criminal, bad, man in the mirror, the way you make me feel, Dirty Diana and MANY more. He was nominated for so many categories and went home with nothing. He looked upset at the awards show and I honestly never felt so bad. And don’t give me the bs that he won 8 in 1984 because not only was that years ago, but look at Beyoncé! She wins so many time each time. It’s disgraceful. They’ve always snubbed black artists like Prince, Nicki Minaj and even other iconic acts like QUEEN, Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys…🤦♀️
@@luthfeeghazale6206 sadly, that’s untrue. In 1988, for his Bad Album, he didn’t win any Grammys. He was only nominated for three categories (album of the year, male pop vocal performance, male rnb vocal performance) and didn’t win anything
I really stopped watching the Grammys in 1996, when Mariah Carey didn't even win a single award on the six nominations for her 1995 Daydream album. She was snubbed that night, it's a shame, she seemed embarassed. I remember the fans and even medias and general public being kind of upset at the Grammys for this.
There was a big fail in Harrys performance, the platform stage was spinning the wrong way and it fked up the whole thing, Harry must have been stressed.
I was stressed just thinking about how stressed he probably was !!! He looked nervous and then all this people commenting on how he wasn't singing well and oh gosh I just wish I could hug him
They literally used us bts' armys for 2 consecutive years to juice for views this year although bts members were nominated three 3x they didn't choose to go armys also didn't watch. We're so done with this shtty azz show. The variety report revealed how the voters were racist towards bts they didn't vote for 'my universe' though there's coldplay in it. Just last year, grammy jury said they would not consider how popular the song is, but this year, they gave most awards to tiktok songs math isn't mathing.
grammys have become pay to win and they’re not even trying to hide it. they love to put in just enough effort to keep you watching, but not enough to actually acknowledge good musicians that aren’t within the top 10 of charts. it’s like the golden globes of music atp
So grateful for people like you who watch the show and do a short and succinct summary for the sake of our brain cells. I decided in 2019 to stop supporting them in any way, stopped tuning into any of their shows. Obviously, I’m still curious so it’s really nice to have someone like you. Big time.
As an R&b Stan, it killed me that Mary didn’t win ONE…at least one. She had a huge chance in the R&b category but because they wanted to give Bey all the “black” awards for her achievement and not the ones she deserved, they prevented all the deserving R&b artists from winning. It’s so frustrating.
award shows seem to be really struggling with relevancy. i mean there's nothing exciting anymore. you just get ppl watching clips on twitter and mostly hating every second. then the pile on of articles that try to make it sound like the greatest night of all time. it's embarrassing. every year it somehow gets worse. but i do appreciate how twitter and tiktok take it all and make it something fun. the grammys this year were so.... try hard. it was all too obvious that no one cared but wanted their name in the mix. also im so over harry and his tone deaf ass. he can't genuinely not understand anything in this world. ain't he like middle aged??
The point is he is a grown ass man. I am his age. He should know what is happening in the world. You can’t tell me he hasn’t heard of white and make privileges. He is not a boy anymore.
This year had the highest viewership in 3 years. The hip hop tribute and Jay-Z's performance shut it down! Beyonce will probably never perform at the Grammy's again after they had her up there pregnant with twins performing and still didn't give her album of the year for Lemonade. I don't blame her!
The huge red spinning platform in Harry's performance was spinning the opposite way than they rehearsed so it really messed him up and all of the dancers - one of the dancers talked about it on his Instagram...which sucks for harry and probably why the performance wasn't his best :(
There was a massive technical difficulty that devastated the performance, they couldn’t perform with energy because they were all trying to work out how to get through it and Harry nearly fell off the stage because of the mess
The only thing that I am confused about is why Harry himself is getting so much hate as if he gave himself the award! Every album that was nominated in the album of the year category was successful and popular, which is why they got nominated in the first place so whoever won was deserving of the award although Harry’s House is not my favorite Harry Styles album (fine line is) I just don’t understand the hate surrounding it lol congrats to all the winners though whether we feel like the deserved it or not, they won and there’s nothing we can do about it 😊
I think people are more upset with the Grammies because of how they pushed the idea of Beyoncé of winning AOTY which they do every year but they always give the award to someone unexpected to win also the fact no black woman has won AOTY since the 90 in itself is very questionable also his speech was a bit of tone deaf as well
@@abbyyyy41 I understand that and especially being a black woman I empathize with that. However I feel like lemonade should have won aoty. Renaissance just wasn’t my favorite Beyoncé album so maybe that’s part of why I feel a little disconnected. Also I can understand how Harry’s speech could come off as tone deaf but that’s the last thing that he was trying to be. He was just speaking on how he came from working in a bakery at 15/16 years old to auditioning for the X Factor UK getting cut as a solo act then getting put in a boy group which went on to be super successful and then when the group disbanded, he got to be even more successful. so really, I think it was a thing of him not expecting the amount of success, or being astonished by it in a sense.
As always the speeches and winners reactions were really the only things that actually mattered to me. Loved Lizzo’s speech and Beyoncé’s speech as she broke the record Also the Hip-Hop tribute was pretty sick, the performances were quite fire and given the grammys history with Hip-Hop this is pretty cool to see. Although they did still nominate shit like DJ Khaled and Jack Harlow with a whole list of snubs so they truly havent learned all that much lol. But I guess the genre is at least getting some well-deserved respect from them slowly but surely
My hot take is I think ABBA should have won pop duo/group as a legacy act. ABBA has never won an Grammy despite their outsized impact - even if I liked Unholy more it would seem like a great tribute
noticed how sam smith did that satanic themed performance and proceeded to win a grammy while back in ‘12 nicki minaj did a similar performance and didn’t win anything? my girl was blackballed
Honestly after Covid, I haven't liked celebrities ever since. I still like the drama, but I'm not invested or taking sides anymore. I think a lot of people feel the same and just arnt as passionate as they used to be.
About Harry Styles: his stage was turning in the wrong direction so the dancers had to "improvise" (after a week of perfectioning their performance) an turn the whole dance around to to it in the opposite direction. This was confirmed by some of the dancers themselves. And there is also a rumor that his there was something wrong with his ear piece because he kept touching it which he normally doesn't do. So people think that he might not have been able to hear what he was supposed to hear...
I love the fact that Steve Lacy got something, I expected BAD HABIT to get something considering the hype behind it and the fact that I LOVEEEE that song so damn much.
I think people are really trying so hard to hate harry on every little thing, they're passing comments without knowing what actually happened during the performance. No one able to pull off the performance in that difficulty but Harry managed to do it and it shows how good performer he is. And the other debate that he don't deserve AOTY is so stupid because music is subjective and everyone has different opinion if you don't like someone it doesn't mean it's nit good and 2022 was Harry's year his album, his single and everything is a hit and for me Harry's house is the Album of the year PERIOD...
I don´t hate Harry, it´s just the whole "he is revolutionary bc he is wearing a dress" "he is changing archetypes" but not recognizing the actual lgbt artist or minorities that have the same speech is hypocrite, i don´t think Harry is guilty of that but clearly as a brand is something that he knows is going to be praised about, unfortunately is not the same for Sam Smith or Lizzo. That´s mostly the issue i most common see.
renaissance losing album of the year to harry's house is such a shame on the recording academy. they are so detached from the music context conversations
i think the people mad that bonnie rait won should realize in like 30+ years younger people probably won't know who their favs are and when they win stuff or make achievements they'll be saying the same thing that they said about bonnie. idk just something to think about
It was shocking to say the least, the album with 3 of its songs winning a Grammys and multiple songs nominated in various categories but yet not winning AOTY it’s just wild
I agree the whole entire Hip-Hop honors performance I was on my feet dancing. It was Nostalgia overload in the best way. Yes wish some of them. could of been longer but over all it was amazing. And thank god GloRilla brought the energy back up after lil baby performance lol
lil baby demonstrated how much male rap has gone down hill since the 90’s 😂 glad glorilla came in with some real rap instead of the auto tuned bullshit
The main problem is that awards shows (especially the Grammys) are bought and rigged and everyone knows that by this point. Harry Styles' win was a slap in the face because his music is disliked by many people, yet he "won" anyway. That Sam Smith song is a mediocre-as-hell pop song, and that win was just a social statement. People are sick of being preached to by celebrities, and their decision to make the host one of the most brainwashed cogs in that machine was a major fail. This Grammys literally felt like a show put on by Panem's wealthy. I honestly can't believe they still air this crap.
@@WinxMagicalHeroyall are so dramatic what he said was a little tone deaf but obviously not in ill manner. he literally says that in part of his speech he says on tour each night
@@WinxMagicalHero Was his speech referring to his ethnicity or his background from a small town? It very well could be the latter. But at the end of the day, no one deserves hate in their lives for something dictated by other people.
I think it would have been a good block for like a preshow, like 30 minutes or an hour before it actuallt started. That way people can get cozy and start tuning in without it feeling like filler in the actual lineup of things. I did quite like it myself, but I would have perfered either longer or more performances.
i hate that people are being so negative about the ceremony this year. i was hoping beyonce would win album of the year, but i was happy for harry regardless. beyonce as receiving her flowers all throughout the ceremony and did achieve a new record. lizzo had a big win with record of the year, and a lot of artists walked away with at least one award (adele, taylor swift, bad bunny, kendrick etc). overall i thought that it was a nice night as a lot of artists were recognized and we got so many pics/vids of artists interacting and enjoying themselves, so i wish we could just focus on the positive outcomes of the ceremony.
I think the majority of ppl have lost respect for the Grammys (and other award shows). It almost doesn't matter who's nominated or performs. Too many artists have been ignored, black balled, or unreservedly praised due to politics. I haven't watched it in years and don't plan on it any time soon.
yessss this is what i think/feel too. i was/am pissed at the grammys but right now the ceremony was much more enjoyable than the past few years (i hadn’t watched at least half of it in years, it was unbearable)….people have been too negative towards it online and there’s still a lot to celebrate here.
I just don't get why people wanted renaissance by Beyonce to win.. it was a mediocre, forgettable and boring album. I'm NOT saying that Beyonce isn't talented. But the album was just meh.
Harry's performance was rocky because the turntable started going the wrong way at the start of the performance, freaking out all the dancers and Harry. He even tried to warn the technician, but he didn't notice. So he was freaking out about doing a whole choreography backwards and losing his balance. Which he did.
My only problem is why everyone's making it about Beyonce....there were other nominees who deserved the AOTY too. Not just Beyonce. And it's no way acceptable that people were booing while Harry was giving his speech. I mean he too must have worked hard and it was not a bad album. Why can't we just appreciate an artist even if they're not our favourite!!!!
I know. I don’t listen to his music, but people have been so mean to him. He won at the end of the day. So like?? Beyoncé has 32 Grammys I think she’ll live. She was also cheering for him too. I feel bad that Beyoncé has to deal with her toxic fan base.
@@vmarie22456 same I don't listen to his music too, Beyonce neither. So don't know about them. I listened to 30 liked it and wanted Adele to win but she didn't. And I'm happy for Harry. But what the hell is this behaviour man. People are just petty this days.
Crazy how a fan base is toxic when y’all deliberately ignore the valid criticism made towards the Grammys, not Harry. Although people are flippantly lying as if Harry styles and a Beyoncé is even comparable when she has been performing his entire life let alone his career. No one cares that Harry won, but never over a Beyoncé. Like bffr. Let alone everyone else who was nominated also light years ahead. The beyhive is not toxic for calling out racism and then responding to gaslighting with anger. Y’all don’t even listen to Beyoncé and in the same breath comparing her to someone whose career is more than likely literally inspired by hers. He is mediocre is comparison and that is simply the truth.
@@genesistafari9006 1st I don't listen to Harry, I don't listen to Beyonce. I'm not comparing them, cause it's foolish to compare two artists be it anyone. 2nd Just because Harry is younger doesn't mean he's not a good artist or can't make good music ever. 3rd I have seen people hating on Harry more than they're criticizing the Grammys. That's why I commented this and that's what bothers me. And yeah there are toxic people in every fandom. Lastly when Harry said "this doesn't happen with people like me"... I don't think he meant his color or anything, no would say that. There's more to people than color. And even if it was about race and all it's clearly not his fault that they chose him. Anyway i just can't tolerate people hating on people for no reason... otherwise I couldn't care less about these award shows.
Renaissance won awards across more than 1 genre and it still isn’t AOTY? Come on now… I do wonder - had Bey and Harry swapped albums, would she have won? I honestly don’t know what it will take for Bey to finally win it but I guess her next couple of albums have to be 100 on metacritic scores. An album so perfect that they have no choice but to award her AOTY…
@@lucasb9285 Yup, they expose themselves on that article and I was shook bc what the hell. A voter talking "I love Beyoncé and Adele but I'm not going to vote for them bc they won too much" like huh or everytime Beyoncé drop something it's an event as if it's negative. How is she punished for being "too talented" and "too beloved" ? Make it make sense 🤣🤦🏾♂️
Harry's House is mediocre and bland elevator pop. The issue is that aside from Coldplay, it was easily the worst album in all categories it was nominated in. Literally any other nominee except Coldplay would've taken it and the backlash wouldn't have been this much. How Beyoncè can lose album of the year for her last three consecutive albums isn't realistic(all while winning more Grammys than anyone else?)
Clearly Harry’s House was an excellent album or it wouldn’t of been nominated, it was a front runner behind Adele and Beyoncé, just not your cup of tea
calling harry’s house ‘mediocre and bland elevator pop’ and saying that it was one of the worst albums in that category is such a ridiculous statement and just untrue. it’s a good album, it may not be to your taste but that doesn’t mean it’s bad and that other people don’t like it. harry’s album did very well and he had a great year with it. it was very much a top contender for the award.. beyonce loosing album of the year is a much bigger conversation than harry and the criticsm should be directed towards the academy and the people who vote. you don’t need to discredit harry and his work to prove that beyonce was more deserving. harry also didn’t vote for himself so there’s no need to put him down to prove your point.
@@hazelnutjones6533 You do know music is subjective right? To me it was a bad album and it's not WRONG to say that it was mediocre elevator pop to me. Just because YOU enjoyed it doesn't mean other people don't have the right to actively dislike it or believe it didn't deserve the Grammy. I discredited his work because it doesn't deserve much credit to me, sorry if that hurt you!
It’s so disgusting to see Grammy voters go against Beyoncé Because she is so successful. She has become the pinnacle of what it means to be a entertainer yet she is a black woman, so they Weaponized her own success against her.
It irked me that Taylor's best music video award was not televised, I mean the camera kept on cutting to her during the main ceremony so why not maximize it by having her accept the award on stage. I feel like they did not do it because Taylor would be pushing for artist's rights for their masters in her speech because the song is part of a rerecording and that is also why I think she lost SOTY
I knew the grammys were sketchy when they snubbed both Ariana (2 hits) and the weekend(amazing full album). But what do we expect after what they did to Mariah in 1996.
I wish Scoring the End Of The World by Motionless In White and Pain Remains by Lorna Shore could've gotten nominated and won something. Those were great albums and MIW had BIG hits like Masterpiece and Werewolf. But that's just me. I really hope good metal artists get recognition at some point rather than just placed in one category that's always confusing.
BTS wasn’t there lol but Coldplay was there to represent themselves and BTS. The Hip Hop tribute was great and agreed some needed longer than a few seconds but all in all great.

Actually Rosalía has won two Grammys in the same category (Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album), her first American Grammy was for her sophomore album El Mal Querer and now she won it again, and she has 12 Latin Grammys, in total making 14 awards
Don’t know if it was just me or not but I rolled my eyes every time I saw that Dj Khaled got nominated since we know he only got it because of his level of money and fame
I think Grammys doesn’t really like to give AOTY award to an album with different genres on it no matter how great it is. (ex. RED, Melodrama, Renaissance). I think they prefer a genre specific album.
The way I would have a Kanye West moment and take the mic out of Harry's hand to say "but Beyonce had one of the best albums of the year." I'm tired of y'all pretending this man is revolutionary when artists like Bowie and Mercury existed.
Even badbunny was more commercially successful and aunties diaries was more impactful. I don't think anybody should have anything against Harry but the academy is lacking social context.
@@lifeisbutadream2856 the fact that majority of them are older white men and one of their producers helped w “as it was” shows they’re always gonna award familiarity
As a harry styles "fan", I think his album was amazing and showcased many great songs, but i'll have to say that Harry's House didn't really deserve album of the year. And lots of people have been talking about his speech being racist, but I think he meant that about him being "one of them queers".
y’all are saying harry had technical difficulties but one thing is .. those “technical difficulties” only affected the choreo, those didn’t affect his awful singing ! dude couldn’t even keep a note for the longest time and was struggling to breathe while singing. it’s actually insane i had to turn the volume off
That’s because he was wondering how the hell they were going to manage the performance and having trouble staying on the wheel and not knocking over other performers, he nearly fell over at one point, he wasn’t thinking about vocals until he got off that wheel when they became fine. In concert he runs around all night and has no trouble holding notes, he’s extremely fit
Anytime Beyonce is in the AOTY category, people go crazy hoping she wins but the truth is her album is NOT always the best in that category. I don’t feel like it was this year either 🤷🏽♂️
Instead of all the fillers they put, they should have moved a few awards to the main show. Like Video Of The Year, so we can get a few moments of Taylor on stage. And Viola Davis' award, she should have had a full moment for her EGOT
To me it was strange having Adele, Taylor Swift, and Beyonce there but none of them performed. I too hated the fan roundtable.
They all declined to perform
@@jgmusic97 Intelligent women. They know they’re too good.
I personally think the fan round table can be perfected

@@user-zw2hn9eu1l Of course, I'm not questioning why they were there.
This is how you know the Grammys have lost prestige, when you can't get Beyonce, Taylor & Adele to perform at your awards show. And there was no reason why SZA couldn’t perform Kill Bill
i may be uniformed but that might be because the song was released very close to when the ceremony was going to happen, so maybe there wouldnt be enough time for rehearsals. Regardless, the Grammy's did SZA dirty when she won NOTHING for ctrl

Beyoncé’s achievement is amazing to see. But the bulk of her awards have been in the sub categories…the “typical” “black” categories (for want of better words)…”Urban”, R&B and Rap.
Not winning AOTY again was disheartening to see.
The most honored artist in history and she still isn’t worthy of THE biggest award?
And I want to also make a wider separate point: the academy does not like to award black females the AOTY award. There have been very, VERY few winners, the last one being Lauryn Hill in 1999. I’m not saying black women should win because they’re black, but there have been several deserving black female artists who should have won AOTY since Lauryn…
at this point it's like they're giving her awards for the sake of giving and not because they actually consider her to be worth of them. after her self-titled album she stopped producing music that white people could deem as "relatable" and suddenly everyone started claiming that she's overrated and undeserving of her awards, let alone of something from the main 4. i don't think she cares about that as much as i do though lmao, she's still the artist with most grammy wins either way.
@@Kevin-rg3yc Janelle Monae wasn't even nominated for AOTY and I'll remember being pissed off bc what the hell. The scammys really have a black problem and it gets worse with black women 🤦🏾♂️
I mean many do deserve to win for purely being Black. Idk why y’all throw that in there like talent excuses racism from effecting ppl.
@@angechrisman1694 They HATE Black people. Grime also exposed their voting system.
For lemonade I think maybe she should have won but not for this album, this album did not really do anything for me, honestly bad bunny should have won he had an all Spanish album yet was aaallllll over it was really good, I also liked harry and lizzo album
The worst part about the GRAMMYs this year is they've hyped this record breaking accomplishment by Beyoncé yet NONE of her 33 awards are for the big 4 categories... but Harry Styles can get on stage and say "things like this don't happen to people like me" when it's been 25 years since Lauryn Hill won AOTY. The last black woman to do so.
The comment wasn't about colour, it was about music artist in general, maybe a little unfortunate choice, but its not fair to blame him for the choice, its the Jury that should be blamed
Bey has won SOTY before
@@jarne_tpwk Nah it is about color and i would go as far to say its about gender too. Harry is the typical "White man from small town makes it big" story. It always happens to "people like him". That comment is distasteful and it shows lack of awareness.
it’s also about sexuality too. he made that comment because he’s queer, not because of his race or gender.
i definitely agree. i’m super proud of beyonce, but her breaking a record for wins doesn’t take away from the fact that the majority of her wins came from categories that the academy forces black people into. she’s consistently impacted the culture and built upon her artistry with her albums, and the grammys love to use her name to get ratings, but they never give her any of the big awards. it’s honestly pathetic. also with harry, i think he was. referring to how he didn’t grow up with music connections/had to actually work toward getting to where he is now. it was definitely a poor choice of words/miscommunication. i don’t think he meant anything bad by it
THANK YOU for your Sam Smith take because people try to frame it as hate, homophobia, phatphobia and it’s like Nooooo *THEY’RE JUST SUPER TRY HARD. 😭
I agree with what you're saying but I need to point out that Sam Smith is non-binary. They've been using they/them pronouns for a few years now! 😅

Apparently, there were a lot of technical issues with Harry Styles’s performance.
Yeah it’s sad, it had a devastating effect on his performance. At the end when the wheel stopped they were finally able to perform what they’d rehearsed
there was. his dancers confirmed that the turntable thing they used for the performance was spinning the wrong way. and harry kept signaling that he was having technical issues

Didn’t watch the show! But I did was Steve Lacy performance and he killed it!!! Glad he won, wish he could’ve shared an acceptance speech. Beyonce is a legend. The grammy’s should be ashamed that she walked away with NOTHING for lemonade. I won’t forget! Congratulations to the winners!

Those were not Bad Bunny and Rosalía's first Grammys, they've won before (Bad Bunny with YHLQMDLG and El Ultimo Tour Del Mundo, and Rosalía with El Mal Querer). All well deserved tho!
I was going to come here, & say the same thing!
The Grammys have been rigged since ‘96 when Mariah didn’t win
How about 1988 when Michael Jackson's Bad didn't win anything.
this story again? alanis deserved more. jagged little pill is remembered till these days
Diana Ross*, even before her 😭
@@thalesmatheus6011 I don't think it's specifically about the AOTY that she lost against Alanis Morrisette's Jagged Little Pill which is still a, classic, iconc and legendary body of work that changed the landscape of popular music at the time for female artists in the alternative rock scene from Michelle Brooks' Bitch which is You Outta Know 2.0 to Shakira earlier works, Avril Lavigne, Pink, Kelly Clarkson in the 2000s. However, Mariah was sabotaged by her then husband /head of Sony music, Tommy Mottola and she lost all 6 of her nods. AOTY to Alanis, One Sweet Day ft Boyz Il Men which spend a record breaking 16 weeks at number 1 on the hot 100 lost ROTY, SOTY to Seal's Kiss From a Rose, Fantasy and th remix with ODB which popularized pop and hip hop collabs lost best pop vocal performance to a Annie Lennox song that no one remember today and she lost best pop album too
Way before that
I first lost respect for them when they asked Michael Jackson to perform at the Grammys in 1988 (a revolutionary performance btw) and didn’t even have him win at least ONE Grammy for his album “Bad”.
That album not only being one of the best selling albums of all time, but had such ICONIC songs like smooth criminal, bad, man in the mirror, the way you make me feel, Dirty Diana and MANY more. He was nominated for so many categories and went home with nothing. He looked upset at the awards show and I honestly never felt so bad. And don’t give me the bs that he won 8 in 1984 because not only was that years ago, but look at Beyoncé! She wins so many time each time. It’s disgraceful. They’ve always snubbed black artists like Prince, Nicki Minaj and even other iconic acts like QUEEN, Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys…🤦♀️
it did won Best Engineered Recording thou..but not AOTY😢
@@luthfeeghazale6206 sadly, that’s untrue. In 1988, for his Bad Album, he didn’t win any Grammys. He was only nominated for three categories (album of the year, male pop vocal performance, male rnb vocal performance) and didn’t win anything
@@retrodreamings can't you accept that Bad maybe, just maybe, wasn't as good as Thriller?
@@gilbertokoxx3559 no and we can also expect a white boring artist like Taylor Swift to win for most of her albums too
I really stopped watching the Grammys in 1996, when Mariah Carey didn't even win a single award on the six nominations for her 1995 Daydream album. She was snubbed that night, it's a shame, she seemed embarassed. I remember the fans and even medias and general public being kind of upset at the Grammys for this.
No one cares about the Grammys anymore. That’s it really.
I think the Grammys played it safe this time to appease all fanbases while still awarding their chosen favourite
There was a big fail in Harrys performance, the platform stage was spinning the wrong way and it fked up the whole thing, Harry must have been stressed.
I was stressed just thinking about how stressed he probably was !!! He looked nervous and then all this people commenting on how he wasn't singing well and oh gosh I just wish I could hug him
How much you wanna bet he was sabotaged
also he was sick I think. there was an article
@@wanyekest6969 why would someone sabotage him?
Oh damn that sucks I hope he wasn't sabotaged
The Grammys always use people for views, like Beyoncé and BTS and Mac Miller that one year, it’s very irritating. The fans need to stop tuning in.
No literally I remembered when they had Nicki promoting the hell out of them and she didn’t get a Grammy AND they didn’t want her to perform
The fans are the most annoying, giving them all the promo they need instead of ignoring them.
They literally used us bts' armys for 2 consecutive years to juice for views this year although bts members were nominated three 3x they didn't choose to go armys also didn't watch. We're so done with this shtty azz show. The variety report revealed how the voters were racist towards bts they didn't vote for 'my universe' though there's coldplay in it.
Just last year, grammy jury said they would not consider how popular the song is, but this year, they gave most awards to tiktok songs math isn't mathing.
@BMW Jourdan Dunn Goddess! true
but if the artist is going to perform there, fans will for sure tune in to watch them
@@myjiminparker you okay love?
Maybe we should've gotten a Chris Rock and Will Smith moment at the Grammys.
I really wanted one 🥺
Somebody needed to slap harry styles
That's why we need Kanye back at the Grammy's to stop Harry Styles winning lol
@@zackzallie8735 lmao poor Kanye
Imma need taylor swift cracking a joke and beyonce smacking her in the face. Thank you x
grammys have become pay to win and they’re not even trying to hide it. they love to put in just enough effort to keep you watching, but not enough to actually acknowledge good musicians that aren’t within the top 10 of charts. it’s like the golden globes of music atp
So grateful for people like you who watch the show and do a short and succinct summary for the sake of our brain cells. I decided in 2019 to stop supporting them in any way, stopped tuning into any of their shows. Obviously, I’m still curious so it’s really nice to have someone like you. Big time.
As an R&b Stan, it killed me that Mary didn’t win ONE…at least one. She had a huge chance in the R&b category but because they wanted to give Bey all the “black” awards for her achievement and not the ones she deserved, they prevented all the deserving R&b artists from winning. It’s so frustrating.
As a gay dude, that Sam Smith performance was disgusting.
I didn't even realize the Grammys was happening
I love Harry’s house . It’s a bop but girl did we not see the other albums in that category? Choices .
It was trash and will be forgotten a decade from now
Harry was actually performing on a machine that was going the wrong way. 😳 That was smooth.
Oh I thought that was apart of it 😅
Sam Smith is so cringe
I agree ... so corny . Prince did it better .
award shows seem to be really struggling with relevancy. i mean there's nothing exciting anymore. you just get ppl watching clips on twitter and mostly hating every second. then the pile on of articles that try to make it sound like the greatest night of all time. it's embarrassing. every year it somehow gets worse. but i do appreciate how twitter and tiktok take it all and make it something fun. the grammys this year were so.... try hard. it was all too obvious that no one cared but wanted their name in the mix. also im so over harry and his tone deaf ass. he can't genuinely not understand anything in this world. ain't he like middle aged??
He is only 28 so not middle aged but I can understand how tone deaf he came across in his speech.
I feel like recaps like honest's are way more fun and interesting to watch. I haven't watched a single award show in 6 years.
harry's way smarter than you please are you a child??
The point is he is a grown ass man. I am his age. He should know what is happening in the world. You can’t tell me he hasn’t heard of white and make privileges. He is not a boy anymore.
This year had the highest viewership in 3 years. The hip hop tribute and Jay-Z's performance shut it down! Beyonce will probably never perform at the Grammy's again after they had her up there pregnant with twins performing and still didn't give her album of the year for Lemonade. I don't blame her!
The huge red spinning platform in Harry's performance was spinning the opposite way than they rehearsed so it really messed him up and all of the dancers - one of the dancers talked about it on his Instagram...which sucks for harry and probably why the performance wasn't his best :(
The grammys were so disappointed, I didn't even know what happened because no one talked about it
I’m surprised bad bunny didn’t win AOTY the Latin crowd adoressss him - he’s been rising like crazy
It had no chance of winning, it was in Spanish, even though it made the biggest numbers of all the albums.
didnt even know the grammys happened until the day after
Harry wanted some rest and ginger tea, because he was tired from start to finish in that performance
There was a massive technical difficulty that devastated the performance, they couldn’t perform with energy because they were all trying to work out how to get through it and Harry nearly fell off the stage because of the mess
@@lucasb9285 he didn't win AOTY
The only thing that I am confused about is why Harry himself is getting so much hate as if he gave himself the award! Every album that was nominated in the album of the year category was successful and popular, which is why they got nominated in the first place so whoever won was deserving of the award although Harry’s House is not my favorite Harry Styles album (fine line is) I just don’t understand the hate surrounding it lol congrats to all the winners though whether we feel like the deserved it or not, they won and there’s nothing we can do about it 😊
this!! i’ll never understand why people attack the artists for winning the award instead of having conversations about the academy that gives them out
@@babyjush12 exactly
I think people are more upset with the Grammies because of how they pushed the idea of Beyoncé of winning AOTY which they do every year but they always give the award to someone unexpected to win also the fact no black woman has won AOTY since the 90 in itself is very questionable also his speech was a bit of tone deaf as well
@@abbyyyy41 I understand that and especially being a black woman I empathize with that. However I feel like lemonade should have won aoty. Renaissance just wasn’t my favorite Beyoncé album so maybe that’s part of why I feel a little disconnected. Also I can understand how Harry’s speech could come off as tone deaf but that’s the last thing that he was trying to be. He was just speaking on how he came from working in a bakery at 15/16 years old to auditioning for the X Factor UK getting cut as a solo act then getting put in a boy group which went on to be super successful and then when the group disbanded, he got to be even more successful. so really, I think it was a thing of him not expecting the amount of success, or being astonished by it in a sense.
I thought people were on him because of his ‘this doesn’t happen to people like me’ speech lol
As always the speeches and winners reactions were really the only things that actually mattered to me. Loved Lizzo’s speech and Beyoncé’s speech as she broke the record
Also the Hip-Hop tribute was pretty sick, the performances were quite fire and given the grammys history with Hip-Hop this is pretty cool to see.
Although they did still nominate shit like DJ Khaled and Jack Harlow with a whole list of snubs so they truly havent learned all that much lol. But I guess the genre is at least getting some well-deserved respect from them slowly but surely
Same! Beyoncé’s and Lizzo’s speeches were the best!
I think the God Did performance was amazing too tbf, I’ve never heard Jay be that good live tbh
My hot take is I think ABBA should have won pop duo/group as a legacy act. ABBA has never won an Grammy despite their outsized impact - even if I liked Unholy more it would seem like a great tribute
I agree. They could have at least had Taylor or Adele perform. Some performances were just, meh.
noticed how sam smith did that satanic themed performance and proceeded to win a grammy while back in ‘12 nicki minaj did a similar performance and didn’t win anything? my girl was blackballed
The Grammys is racist. White will always get away with anything over anyone else.
True !!!
and her performance was better ‼️
I thought the same thing
How did that get Nicki blackballed? I'm sure the people behind scenes saw Nicki getting ready
Honestly after Covid, I haven't liked celebrities ever since. I still like the drama, but I'm not invested or taking sides anymore. I think a lot of people feel the same and just arnt as passionate as they used to be.
I’ve been waiting all day for this
About Harry Styles: his stage was turning in the wrong direction so the dancers had to "improvise" (after a week of perfectioning their performance) an turn the whole dance around to to it in the opposite direction. This was confirmed by some of the dancers themselves.
And there is also a rumor that his there was something wrong with his ear piece because he kept touching it which he normally doesn't do. So people think that he might not have been able to hear what he was supposed to hear...
exactly! they still did great for having to keep balance and harry also singing while doing so they deserve more credit
I agree,
I love the fact that Steve Lacy got something, I expected BAD HABIT to get something considering the hype behind it and the fact that I LOVEEEE that song so damn much.
Harry faced many teachnical difficulties during his performance the dancers have said it themselves it's time you let it go guys
I've noticed everybody is demonizing Harry for literally nothing. It's ok to dislike him don't need to pick every little thing apart.
I think people are really trying so hard to hate harry on every little thing, they're passing comments without knowing what actually happened during the performance. No one able to pull off the performance in that difficulty but Harry managed to do it and it shows how good performer he is. And the other debate that he don't deserve AOTY is so stupid because music is subjective and everyone has different opinion if you don't like someone it doesn't mean it's nit good and 2022 was Harry's year his album, his single and everything is a hit and for me Harry's house is the Album of the year PERIOD...
I didn’t know that I just thought it was boring in general
“BLIMEY! THE STAGE IS MOVING THA WRONG WAY. TIME TO LOSE ALL SENSE O’ PITCH N SING SUPER OWF KEY”
I don´t hate Harry, it´s just the whole "he is revolutionary bc he is wearing a dress" "he is changing archetypes" but not recognizing the actual lgbt artist or minorities that have the same speech is hypocrite, i don´t think Harry is guilty of that but clearly as a brand is something that he knows is going to be praised about, unfortunately is not the same for Sam Smith or Lizzo. That´s mostly the issue i most common see.
renaissance losing album of the year to harry's house is such a shame on the recording academy. they are so detached from the music context conversations
Harry didn't win album of the year
@@nightwishisthegreatestband6355 yes he did
harry's house literally made more noise and factually outsold bey's album. some of you need to stop discrediting him... he was nominated for a reason.

I'm glad I'm early I haven't watched the grammys in years but I do watch the reviews
Me too lol
i think the people mad that bonnie rait won should realize in like 30+ years younger people probably won't know who their favs are and when they win stuff or make achievements they'll be saying the same thing that they said about bonnie. idk just something to think about
It was shocking to say the least, the album with 3 of its songs winning a Grammys and multiple songs nominated in various categories but yet not winning AOTY it’s just wild
I agree the whole entire Hip-Hop honors performance I was on my feet dancing. It was Nostalgia overload in the best way. Yes wish some of them. could of been longer but over all it was amazing. And thank god GloRilla brought the energy back up after lil baby performance lol
lil baby demonstrated how much male rap has gone down hill since the 90’s 😂 glad glorilla came in with some real rap instead of the auto tuned bullshit
Exactly. And they wanna make him the face of Rap for the decade smh
The main problem is that awards shows (especially the Grammys) are bought and rigged and everyone knows that by this point. Harry Styles' win was a slap in the face because his music is disliked by many people, yet he "won" anyway. That Sam Smith song is a mediocre-as-hell pop song, and that win was just a social statement. People are sick of being preached to by celebrities, and their decision to make the host one of the most brainwashed cogs in that machine was a major fail. This Grammys literally felt like a show put on by Panem's wealthy. I honestly can't believe they still air this crap.
disliked by many but more to most love the album...
While I think Beyoncé should've won AOTY, Harry doesn't really deserve the hate.
He deserves the hate for what he said when he got on stage
@@WinxMagicalHeroyall are so dramatic what he said was a little tone deaf but obviously not in ill manner. he literally says that in part of his speech he says on tour each night

I think it would have been a good block for like a preshow, like 30 minutes or an hour before it actuallt started. That way people can get cozy and start tuning in without it feeling like filler in the actual lineup of things. I did quite like it myself, but I would have perfered either longer or more performances.
Rosalía won in 2020 too, though, for El mal querer, so it isn't her first Grammy. Also: anyone loving EMQ as much as I do too? 💘
I love it as well, my fav in album in 2022
The way you make these videos every year for the Grammys. Ima watch everytime too 😂
Why is ABCDEFU nominated??
i hate that people are being so negative about the ceremony this year. i was hoping beyonce would win album of the year, but i was happy for harry regardless. beyonce as receiving her flowers all throughout the ceremony and did achieve a new record. lizzo had a big win with record of the year, and a lot of artists walked away with at least one award (adele, taylor swift, bad bunny, kendrick etc). overall i thought that it was a nice night as a lot of artists were recognized and we got so many pics/vids of artists interacting and enjoying themselves, so i wish we could just focus on the positive outcomes of the ceremony.
I agree!!! I'm glad one artist didn't get all the awards!
Right I liked it!
I think the majority of ppl have lost respect for the Grammys (and other award shows). It almost doesn't matter who's nominated or performs. Too many artists have been ignored, black balled, or unreservedly praised due to politics. I haven't watched it in years and don't plan on it any time soon.
yessss this is what i think/feel too. i was/am pissed at the grammys but right now the ceremony was much more enjoyable than the past few years (i hadn’t watched at least half of it in years, it was unbearable)….people have been too negative towards it online and there’s still a lot to celebrate here.
People always have something to hate.
as the years progress.. all these award shows are lacking more n more
I just don't get why people wanted renaissance by Beyonce to win.. it was a mediocre, forgettable and boring album. I'm NOT saying that Beyonce isn't talented. But the album was just meh.
Finally someone said it
Me describing Harry's House:
u don't even believe that lmao. nothing forgettable bout an album still charting in the top 20 on bb200 🥳
Me describing honesty, nevermind and her loss
Because her fans are in a cult
Harry's performance was rocky because the turntable started going the wrong way at the start of the performance, freaking out all the dancers and Harry. He even tried to warn the technician, but he didn't notice. So he was freaking out about doing a whole choreography backwards and losing his balance. Which he did.
exactly people need to give him and his dancers more credit for dealing with that on the spot and apparently his ear piece wasn't working well too
Eeeish I was wondering wtf happened
My only problem is why everyone's making it about Beyonce....there were other nominees who deserved the AOTY too. Not just Beyonce. And it's no way acceptable that people were booing while Harry was giving his speech. I mean he too must have worked hard and it was not a bad album. Why can't we just appreciate an artist even if they're not our favourite!!!!
I know. I don’t listen to his music, but people have been so mean to him. He won at the end of the day. So like?? Beyoncé has 32 Grammys I think she’ll live. She was also cheering for him too. I feel bad that Beyoncé has to deal with her toxic fan base.
@@vmarie22456 same I don't listen to his music too, Beyonce neither. So don't know about them. I listened to 30 liked it and wanted Adele to win but she didn't. And I'm happy for Harry. But what the hell is this behaviour man. People are just petty this days.
Crazy how a fan base is toxic when y’all deliberately ignore the valid criticism made towards the Grammys, not Harry. Although people are flippantly lying as if Harry styles and a Beyoncé is even comparable when she has been performing his entire life let alone his career. No one cares that Harry won, but never over a Beyoncé. Like bffr. Let alone everyone else who was nominated also light years ahead. The beyhive is not toxic for calling out racism and then responding to gaslighting with anger. Y’all don’t even listen to Beyoncé and in the same breath comparing her to someone whose career is more than likely literally inspired by hers. He is mediocre is comparison and that is simply the truth.
Valid criticisms are being tossed at the Grammys and you Harry fans really need to open your eyes to the blatant racism.
@@genesistafari9006 1st I don't listen to Harry, I don't listen to Beyonce. I'm not comparing them, cause it's foolish to compare two artists be it anyone.
2nd Just because Harry is younger doesn't mean he's not a good artist or can't make good music ever.
3rd I have seen people hating on Harry more than they're criticizing the Grammys. That's why I commented this and that's what bothers me. And yeah there are toxic people in every fandom.
Lastly when Harry said "this doesn't happen with people like me"... I don't think he meant his color or anything, no would say that. There's more to people than color. And even if it was about race and all it's clearly not his fault that they chose him.
Anyway i just can't tolerate people hating on people for no reason... otherwise I couldn't care less about these award shows.
Rosalia and Bad Bunny actually both won Grammys before. But aside from that, great video as usual. I agree with the majority of what you said. 🙏🏽
Still think that MOTOMAMI deserved an AOTY nomination x.x
The harry styles perf was bad bec the stage turn in the wrong direction. The dancers talk about it on twitter on tiktok
Something I hate about the Grammys is that forgettable songs or albums win over some others that withstand the test of time.
Renaissance won awards across more than 1 genre and it still isn’t AOTY? Come on now…
I do wonder - had Bey and Harry swapped albums, would she have won?
I honestly don’t know what it will take for Bey to finally win it but I guess her next couple of albums have to be 100 on metacritic scores. An album so perfect that they have no choice but to award her AOTY…
@@lucasb9285 Yup, they expose themselves on that article and I was shook bc what the hell. A voter talking "I love Beyoncé and Adele but I'm not going to vote for them bc they won too much" like huh or everytime Beyoncé drop something it's an event as if it's negative. How is she punished for being "too talented" and "too beloved" ? Make it make sense 🤣🤦🏾♂️
The academy does not like her - the interviews showed their true colors, they refuse to give her any of the big awards to humble her
@@dia9916 That was one interview.
She can be the best and still won’t let her win. It’s jealousy that a black woman is the biggest artist of this generation.
The Grammys is gonna humble themselves. People will stop watching.
Harry's House is mediocre and bland elevator pop. The issue is that aside from Coldplay, it was easily the worst album in all categories it was nominated in. Literally any other nominee except Coldplay would've taken it and the backlash wouldn't have been this much. How Beyoncè can lose album of the year for her last three consecutive albums isn't realistic(all while winning more Grammys than anyone else?)
Clearly Harry’s House was an excellent album or it wouldn’t of been nominated, it was a front runner behind Adele and Beyoncé, just not your cup of tea
He did NOT win that award
calling harry’s house ‘mediocre and bland elevator pop’ and saying that it was one of the worst albums in that category is such a ridiculous statement and just untrue. it’s a good album, it may not be to your taste but that doesn’t mean it’s bad and that other people don’t like it. harry’s album did very well and he had a great year with it. it was very much a top contender for the award..
beyonce loosing album of the year is a much bigger conversation than harry and the criticsm should be directed towards the academy and the people who vote. you don’t need to discredit harry and his work to prove that beyonce was more deserving. harry also didn’t vote for himself so there’s no need to put him down to prove your point.
@@VincentA824 abcdefu was nominated for SOTY and it isn't a very good song.
@@hazelnutjones6533 You do know music is subjective right? To me it was a bad album and it's not WRONG to say that it was mediocre elevator pop to me. Just because YOU enjoyed it doesn't mean other people don't have the right to actively dislike it or believe it didn't deserve the Grammy. I discredited his work because it doesn't deserve much credit to me, sorry if that hurt you!
Hope everyone is having a blessed day! Grammys was mid
It’s so disgusting to see Grammy voters go against Beyoncé Because she is so successful. She has become the pinnacle of what it means to be a entertainer yet she is a black woman, so they Weaponized her own success against her.
Harry winning aoty is ridiculous 💀
if anyone thinks that harry deserved aoty you’re insane
the hairys gonna attack u 💀 good luck
call me insane then
His fans are some of the most delusional ones out there
No I agree absolutely ridiculous I could see it going to Taylor Beyoncé
Satellite - Harry Styles >>>> The whole renaissance album
It irked me that Taylor's best music video award was not televised, I mean the camera kept on cutting to her during the main ceremony so why not maximize it by having her accept the award on stage. I feel like they did not do it because Taylor would be pushing for artist's rights for their masters in her speech because the song is part of a rerecording and that is also why I think she lost SOTY
I knew the grammys were sketchy when they snubbed both Ariana (2 hits) and the weekend(amazing full album). But what do we expect after what they did to Mariah in 1996.
I wish Scoring the End Of The World by Motionless In White and Pain Remains by Lorna Shore could've gotten nominated and won something. Those were great albums and MIW had BIG hits like Masterpiece and Werewolf. But that's just me. I really hope good metal artists get recognition at some point rather than just placed in one category that's always confusing.
As long as the Grammys gets it "wrong" they'll win because we will keep talking about it.
I saw someone comment “Grammys did Beyoncé dirty” and it was a good laugh
BTS wasn’t there lol but Coldplay was there to represent themselves and BTS.
The Hip Hop tribute was great and agreed some needed longer than a few seconds but all in all great.
Maturity is when u understand that bts is not everything lol😂

Actually Rosalía has won two Grammys in the same category (Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album), her first American Grammy was for her sophomore album El Mal Querer and now she won it again, and she has 12 Latin Grammys, in total making 14 awards
Queen 🤴
Harry's house deserved that award.
Don’t know if it was just me or not but I rolled my eyes every time I saw that Dj Khaled got nominated since we know he only got it because of his level of money and fame
I lost respect for the grammys when NIKI MINAJ Didnt win one.
Yall now this things messed up when the kids choice awards has a better awards system the the grammys...
Ur right.
I think Grammys doesn’t really like to give AOTY award to an album with different genres on it no matter how great it is. (ex. RED, Melodrama, Renaissance). I think they prefer a genre specific album.
Bruh fr....the WAY THOSE SCAMMIES ROBBED RED 😭😭😭 It is literally, if not the best, one of Taylor's best works ever!!!
nah harry winning AOTY is insane
The way I would have a Kanye West moment and take the mic out of Harry's hand to say "but Beyonce had one of the best albums of the year." I'm tired of y'all pretending this man is revolutionary when artists like Bowie and Mercury existed.
Even badbunny was more commercially successful and aunties diaries was more impactful. I don't think anybody should have anything against Harry but the academy is lacking social context.
@@lifeisbutadream2856 the academy doesn't give a f*ck about social context
@@lifeisbutadream2856 the fact that majority of them are older white men and one of their producers helped w “as it was” shows they’re always gonna award familiarity
As a harry styles "fan", I think his album was amazing and showcased many great songs, but i'll have to say that Harry's House didn't really deserve album of the year.
And lots of people have been talking about his speech being racist, but I think he meant that about him being "one of them queers".
He’s not queer he’s straight white man
y’all are saying harry had technical difficulties but one thing is .. those “technical difficulties” only affected the choreo, those didn’t affect his awful singing ! dude couldn’t even keep a note for the longest time and was struggling to breathe while singing. it’s actually insane i had to turn the volume off
That’s because he was wondering how the hell they were going to manage the performance and having trouble staying on the wheel and not knocking over other performers, he nearly fell over at one point, he wasn’t thinking about vocals until he got off that wheel when they became fine. In concert he runs around all night and has no trouble holding notes, he’s extremely fit
He didnt hear himself
Bad bunny has won 3 American Grammys from 2021- now and he has 9 latin ones actually
Anytime Beyonce is in the AOTY category, people go crazy hoping she wins but the truth is her album is NOT always the best in that category. I don’t feel like it was this year either 🤷🏽♂️
The SCAMMYS have been a flop for years, they rely on the same acts year after year
Bonnie Raitt is a legend. It’s showing respect.
Instead of all the fillers they put, they should have moved a few awards to the main show. Like Video Of The Year, so we can get a few moments of Taylor on stage. And Viola Davis' award, she should have had a full moment for her EGOT
