Wait, did I miss R&B Performance or are they doing that on the telecast now? I guess they switched it up last minute

So, am I correct that Dua and Taylor are the only AOTY nominees that still have a shot at winning a genre album award? And they're in the same genre album category?

This is so hilariously ridiculous. Not watching ofcourse but I’ve seen the tweets on the winners also far.... same old same old. They will never change or learn their lesson.
Beyonce, John Legend, and Kanye West who have like 25 GRAMMYs each and win every single year being ass kissed once again in the smaller categories just off their names.
Just give Taylor her expected sweep too and stop wasting everyone’s time.

Before this show pops off, I just want to come in here to comment that the black erasure when it comes to Bruno Mars' identity has to stop. As a mixed-race, POC, who grew up in Hawaii, to hear the accusations of his cultural appropriation is absolutely ridiculous - especially with his Puerto Rican and Filipino background consisting of highly afro and afro-Latino populations. I don't know what percentage of each he has to have in his blood for you to consider him "black enough" to make the music he makes - but to characterize his ethic ambiguity as a reason that he borrows and benefits from black music is problematic. Not to mention as a kid from the 90's, growing up in a heavily R&B influenced musical landscape, to police the kind of artistry he is able to study and craft, and bring to his audience is also pretty ridiculous, when he's been completely open about his influences and the music that made him want to become an singer/musician. Look at him doing Michal as a teenager. This music is in him and in his soul. Ya'll need to stop trying him. He’s not black. Stop trying to make fetch. I enjoyed his music, but that doesn’t mean I can’t call out the bias the panel sees in him. I’m not speaking of him; I mentioned the panel and it’s discriminatory ways when a “black” artist does the same. It’s obvious the public would rather hear black music from someone who isn’t black. This has been for decades. Let’s not play brand new or someone is trying to single out Bruno Mars.

I'm shocked by the Kanye win. I wouldn't have thought that voting body would embrace him. Interesting. i wonder if a lot of his voters don't listen to christian music but only recognized his name, above cody carnes, hillsong young, we the kingdom, and tauren wells. certainly his poor reviews didn't detract. I know voters get to vote a bit outside of their main genre/s, but it seems weird to me that so many would make a point to vote for Kanye in that category.

I thought they would’ve stuck Stay High in the R&B categories before noms were announced but thrilled it took home the win regardless.

ROM wasnt that predictable at all it was between ROM and Exile but I thought Bon Iver could help Taylor there. I'm happy with the result here. hehe
