@@jgmusic97 Intelligent women. They know they’re too good.

I personally think the fan round table can be perfected

They where still nominated for awards so they would obviously be there.

@@user-zw2hn9eu1l Of course, I'm not questioning why they were there.

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.

@@crystalsnow1138 And Beck won against Bey for AOTY 2015. Even "Who is Beck?" trend day after the ceremony

@@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

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

like i legit heard blinding lights more than yummy.

@@glasstablegcrls listened to yummy once and immediately wished i could un-listen

@@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.

Yes.

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

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

"pretty much does everything alone" lulz

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

@@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.

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

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?

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

I agree ... so corny . Prince did it better .

It was trash and will be forgotten a decade from now

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.

Oh I thought that was apart of 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

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

It had no chance of winning, it was in Spanish, even though it made the biggest numbers of all the albums.

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 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

exactly! they still did great for having to keep balance and harry also singing while doing so they deserve more credit

I agree,

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.

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.

It’s not Grammy worthy though. Actually hiphop sells more than pop these days

@@cherrydreams_ it made more noise in terms of chart and sales, but culturally it moved nothing, not a single step towards high art

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 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.

disliked by many but more to most love the album...

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

​@@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.

@@WinxMagicalHero So when you win something you think of race and gender? Gen z likes to hate

I love it as well, my fav in album in 2022

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.

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!
