Reject Grammy cries wrong.
Twitter tantrums have become fashionable, as top superstars have become the biggest rush in the recording industry, after being denied recognition for what is hyped as “the biggest night of music.”
Sure, it’s not the first time pop stars are making headlines at the Recording Academy – but the 2021 Grammys is a turning point beyond belly pain in the face of nominations.
Explosive claims that Grammys are “corrupt,” sexist and biased for “The white man” have affected the 63rd edition of the annual awards since the Academy of Recordings announced the signs for this year in November.
After a two-month delay in COVID-19, the controversial awards ceremony – hosted by “The Daily Show” Trevor Noah – finally airs at 8 pm on Sunday, March 14, on CBS.
Until then, throw away a list of celebrities who shouted blues about being overlooked for the Grammy gold. Are they just painful losers – or are they really something?
Zayn Malik
“Fk grammys and all the associates,” Malik, 28, cried cybernetically on Tuesday. “If you don’t shake hands and send gifts, there are no nomination considerations. Next year I will send you a confectionery basket. ”
One Direction singer mouth gasping it came four months after the Recording Academy launched its 2021 hope list.
Malik, who was never nominated for a Grammy, released his third solo album, “Nobody Listens,” in January. However, the Academy of Records stated that its 11-track project was not considered for Grammy brilliance, as it was released after this year’s eligibility period from October 1, 2019 to August 31, 2020.
Weekend
“Starboy” saw “Blinding Lights” when none of his top works on the “After Hours” album received Recording Academy acclaim during the November nomination.
“Grammys remain corrupt. You owe it to me, my fans and the transparency of the industry … ”The Weeknd, 30, he shouted through the keyboard just moments after it was unveiled on November 24 this year.
The three-time Grammy Award winner recalled his dissatisfaction with the voting committee, comparing it to a “sucker’s fist” and saying “forget about awards,” during an interview with Billboard in January.
However, three days before the 2021 Grammys aired, The Weeknd really came in: “Because of the secret committees, I will no longer allow my label to present my music at the Grammys,” the “Save Your Tears” singer said in -a statement to the New York Times on Thursday.
Recording Academy President and Acting President / CEO Harvey Mason Jr. denied the allegations, saying in a statement to Rolling Stone: “Unfortunately, every year, there are fewer nominations than the number of artists who deserve … To be Clearly, voting in all categories ended long before The Weeknd was announced at the Super Bowl, so in no case could it have affected the nomination process. ”
Regarding The Weeknd’s decision to boycott the show from now on, “We are all disappointed when someone is upset,” Mason Jr. said in a statement.
Halsey
Halsey, 26, snorted, snorted and blew “shadow” bribes at the Recording Academy in 2019, when her masterpiece “Sleeve” failed to win any awards.
“Grammys are an evasive process,” the “You Should Be Sad” singer cried in a long Instagram story.
“It can often be private backstage shows, meeting the right people, a vine campaign, with the right handshakes and ‘bribes’, which can only be ambiguous enough to pass as ‘no bribes’.”
Representatives for the Recording Academy did not respond to requests from The Posts to comment on Halsey’s allegations.
Meanwhile, singer “Graveyard” continued to overshadow the awards franchise as she lifted her 2019 AMA statuette – and later threw the Grammy for excluding her certified platinum ballad “Without Me” from the 2020 list of names.
Justin Bieber
Bieber couldn’t anything when his anthology “Changes”, which sold platinum, won head over heels for best pop vocal album, rather than best R&B album.
“Changes was and is an R&B album,” the 27-year-old Canadian vocalist complained on Instagram after receiving the four nominations for this year’s ceremonies. “It’s not recognized as an R&B album, which is very strange to me.”
Although “flattered” by the Recording Academy’s recognition, Bieber continued: “For this not to be put in that category it feels weird considering from the chords to the songs to the vocal style to the hip hop drums that were alese. undeniably, without a doubt, an R&B album! ”
It seems that Biebs was so bothered by the wrong classification of his album that he finally chose to boycott the awards.
Nicki Minaj
The Queens “Queen” crooner called for a Grammy because she hadn’t bowed to her musical skills since Day 1.
“Never forget that Grammy didn’t give me the best award for my new artist when I had 7 songs on the chart simultaneously on the billboard and the first week bigger than any female rapper of the last decade – she continued to inspire a generation. They gave it to the white man Bon Iver “, wrote on Twitter Minaj, 38 years old, after the Recording Academy chose its elections for 2021.
Although the rhyme “Tusa” was nominated for 10 Grammys in 2011, she has never taken home even a small golden gramophone.
Kanye West
How upset do you have to be to urinate with a Grammy? Apparently, very.
In the midst of his 2020 presidential campaign, 43-year-old West targeted the Recording Academy in one of the most infamous digital ranks. After dipping one of his 21 Grammys in a toilet, the Chicago native peed the trophy and shared a picture of the irreverent act on Twitter in September.
His hip-hop colleague, TV star LL Cool J, called West because he didn’t respect his Grammys, advising that “Piss in a Yeezy”.
The liquid rebuke of the awards, which has since been wiped out by Stronger, came amid a combination of tweets that beat the music industry for subjecting black artists to unfair treatment.
Representatives for the Recording Academy did not respond to requests for comments from The Posts on Minaj and West’s claims of racial inequity in the nomination process and the industry as a whole.
The real tear
However, Twitter fits the despised singers, researchers claim that women make up less than 3% of all music producers and engineers – despite the Academy of Records ’major effort for gender equality in the industry.
“Women accounted for 2.6% of the total producers of 600 songs,” according to the authors of a recent study by USC’s Annenberg Inclusion Initiative. Their findings were explained in the published tweets of the Twitter account verified by the Initiative on Monday.
Recording Academy launched Women in the Mix Pledge in 2019 in an effort to receive more music masters for women in the studio. The call for action brought together artists, label directors and other producers to consider at least two women in the hiring process for making any song.
However, the Annenberg Inclusion Initiative found that the Academy’s efforts failed to generate a single graphic song produced by a woman in 2020.
However, the Academy of Records It has began to reduce the gender gap when it comes to giving women the nods in the top 5 categories: Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Best New Artist and Producer of the Year.
But the study mentioned that of all those nominated for the coveted awards in the last nine years, only 13.4% were women.
Some might consider it a weeping shame.
