Those “Yummy” nominations might just be the most perplexing of the entire bunch.

Eff the Grammy's!!! What a friggin joke not nominating the Weekend in the 3 major categories. Who the heck is Black Pumas? Justin Bieber getting nominated for the worst song of his career is a complete joke. I love Beyonce but she doesn't deserve the nominations that she got.

Black Pumas album was released June 21, 2019... Eligibility window is September 1, 2019 to August 31, 2020. I'm not complaining, but what's reason for its nomination? A re-release maybe? Deluxe Edition

So gutted that The Weeknd got nothing, dude worked so fucking hard this year. Literally the biggest song of the year and one of the biggest songs of all time and Blinding Lights got zero noms! What the hell?
Abel has the biggest song of the year, biggest album of the year and he's performing at the Super Bowl. Screw the Grammy's.

Now, would that mean that Rolling Stones could have been nominated for the Deluxe Edition of Goats Head Soup?

Is it me, or does it kinda feel like they stacked the AOTY lineup in such a way that people can't be mad if Taylor wins over the others?
Jhene's album wasn't huge and the reviews don't look that good. The only other POC nominee is in Black Pumas, who I've never heard of.

I know it was kinda explained how the nominations come about(Craig explained), but I'm still confused on who sits in on this process.

Are those Black Parade nominations the Academy way of rectifying how they Homecoming last year? If the nominations are this stale I'm already dreading the actual broadcast next year.

The lack of Weeknd nominations is ridiculous. This was absolutely his year.
However, I'm happy for Dua. Hopefully she can win some awards. I loved folklore, but I'm not sure if Taylor deserves a third AOTY win.

Assuming that Bieber note is true... I’m sorry, but that reeks of privilege. Did the world need to know your grievances? The fact that he can actually complain about not getting nominated where he WANTED to be nominated, while being nominated for a handful of awards, is privilege in itself. Just gross. What note?

On another note, Fine Line not getting AOTY? I was so sure it could even win.

Clearly the biggest snub is "Blinding Lights" not getting any nominations. That is truly perplexing. I don't actually think he was snubbed in the album category, though, cause the album is good but has some flaws.
How many people actually vote on the Grammy nominees. I keep reading people in this thread referring to the Grammy committee as "they" as if a handful of people engineered all of this. Isn't it quite a lot of people? I'm not really sure.

Now the more I think about it, maybe Folklore being the obvious win will hinder it in the end and there will be an "upset". I could see DUA taking it. Or Post.
Still Taylor absolutely deserved all those noms and I will be thrilled with even just 1 or 2 small wins. 3 AOTY nominations and 2 wins is incredible.
The Weekend absolutely deserved nominations, so that is weird af.
Beyonce leading is even weirder. I swear the academy has a bigger bo*er for no other artist. lol
Kind of shocked by no AOTY nod for Apple. Everyone was saying it was a sure bet.

Even not knowing what song he submitted to which category, the fact he was left out Pop Album and Pop Song is simply disgusting! Even Ed Sheeran got those two categories. Like..I really don't know HOW the Grammys can redeem themselves from this. The telecast will already have low ratings but these nominations will take them to new lows. I hope The Weeknd doesn't acknowledge this attempted coup by the committee and focus on his Super Bowl performance. Fuck them.

Wow, The Weeknd got absolutely f*cked hard by the Grammys, I pray he's okay. I mean this is like Armond Rizzo getting a train run on him levels of bed.
