I guess I should “cancel” Maren Morris for being a AOC fan. AOC isn’t a human trafficker. She’s a borderline communist.

You don’t have to apologize you said nothing wrong. You’re right that half the people in the country are republicans and we shouldn’t be shocked that most country singers are too. We live in a very weird time right now where both sides seem to hate everybody who isn’t on their team. If Luke had appeared on stage with Biden then the ones complaining right now would be praising him and the ones defending him right now would be the ones who would say they’re never listening to his music again . Lol I'm so tired of this false equivalency. If you support DeSantis you are either a) homophobic/misogynistic/racist or b) care more about your tax rate then other people's human rights. I happen to live in a state where a decent number of Republicans, and many rich Democrats care enough about being nominally not A, that people like DeSantis don't win statewide office. When a Republican wins, its Hogan, who is less extreme on the culture war stuff, and focuses on the no taxes stuff. It turns out you can be a Republican and not support a DeSantis type, which is why the Republican nominee this year is predicted to lose badly. Stop painting all Republicans with the same brush, or excusing their choices based on party ID. And as Biden has not engaged in human trafficking...just not the same thing Biden had kids in cages, so. I think people here would be disappointed to find out what the majority of country artists vote for. Hint: it’s not the Democrats.

And, they voted out Kacey and Brandi in their respective categories to make way for their own employers last year.

The reality is any group of humans voting on shit is going to involve favoritism, shenanigans, etc. On this board we can’t even agree on what constitutes “best” and “album” and “country” and all kinds of other things, and we’d give value to some posters over others if that was relevant in a situation. We don’t even have money or anything involved! Obviously a body as big as the Grammys isn’t going to get it together either.

I could have sworn I read somewhere that she was snubbed because she posed for playboy and the Nashville branch didn’t feel she was representative of country or something like that.

It’s shocking to me the Grammys are still taken so seriously with how much shit has been exposed about the entire process in recent years. I wonder if they’ll ever go the way of the golden globes.

The Grammys IMO need to go by which singers, songs, albums had the biggest year in their respective genres. And stop letting other people pick the nominees. Cuz some of there nominees over the years make no sense. I think a lot of people including myself don’t understand the corrupted voting process.

Wouldn't that make the Grammy's a glorified popularity award show based solely on what is the most popular?

What separates the Grammys from every other awards show is that industry people vote for the nominees and winners. To change that is to actually make them less relevant because there wouldn't be anything to make them unique.

There will always be shady shit going in when people vote on anything. I’ve always liked the Grammy’s system and how it recognized not just the big names. Is there issues yes. They’ve been “trying” to fix them but overall they usually have some of the strongest nominees among the award shows.

Overall I think the nominees for country end up being fine, it’s just when there is a chris year etc., no other nom stands a chance because he’s a straight up name check for voters. Which is also what happens with Brandi now. And don’t get me wrong usually they deserve it. But I mean another song in there might also and it won’t stand a chance 😂 Also a couple years ago when we had a bunch of popular songs (black like me, bluebird and Maren I think) for vocal performance and they give the award to Vince Gill for a song no one had really ever heard. Like yes he’s Vince Gill and has countless Grammys but really?? In 2020?

Now sometimes they deserve the nominations. Sometimes its like, not again. When are nominees gonna be released?

Eh, there is a delicate balance between decided by 100% commercial performance and 100% "experts opinions", which indeed is what that Hits Daily Double article trying to say. (Though I don't think GIRL the album is that popular to serve as a contrast to While I'm Livin')

Nobody is saying the grammy's has to go the way of billboard and only factor in commercial performance defined by arbitrary start and end dates. But 30 people in a room, most of whom have deals with the the artists they're "critiquing" isn't the industry. Nor are they the sole arbiters of taste

But 30 people in a room, most of whom have deals with the the artists they're "critiquing" isn't the industry. Nor are they the sole arbiters of taste That's not how nominations and wins are determined anyway. First of all, it's more than 300 people who determine if the category placement is correct. All voters can then vote on the nominees; the only exceptions that are voted on by specific committees are for Composing/Arranging, Producer, Engineering, and Songwriting. You may be referring to when they had the blue ribbon panel, but they had limited control of nominees and no control of the winners. The panel would get the list of top vote getters for Album, Record, Song, and New Artist and would then select the 5 nominees from there. The overall voting body would then vote for the winners. That process no longer exists.

That process no longer exists. They only eliminated the committees 1 awards ago. “Prior to the new rule, Billboard previously reported that non-committee GRAMMY voters determined the final nominees in only 12 of the 84 categories. The final nominees in 59 categories were chosen by the nominations review committees, while the final nominees in the remaining 13 categories will still be elected by “craft committees.”” variety.com/2021/music/opinion/grammys-nominating-committees-had-to-go-column-1234964561/amp/ hypebeast.com/2021/5/grammy-nomination-review-committees-disbanded-new-categories-recording-academyThey’re also adding craft committees into the new awards, like songwriter, so maybe it’s just a slow slide back to their back rooms.

George Strait’s FB page posted a 2 minute video of George and Chris Stapleton talking about the upcoming stadium tour next summer and they both pretty much with not actually saying it confirmed they’re gonna have songs recorded together. It makes sense since George said a few months back in the pollstar interview he’s working on a new album….I could see it being released around the time of this tour.

Hope she gets better soon and that it isn’t anything too serious. I wonder what this’ll do to her filming of Big Sky, assuming they haven’t already finished taping?
