I hate that this keeps happening to her but when someone of her stature is continually snubbed, it really shows the illegitimacy of these old, white male voters being gatekeepers for artistic excellence. Hopefully this leads to an #OscarsSoWhite kind of backlash.

Exactly. It’s so transparent and so ridiculous.

Emmy voters are lazy and racist, if GoT S8 is winning most of the awards is nominated for you know there is something truly wrong about the voters.

For real. I also think about that Lion King Soundtrack post about it selling low in the U.K. Like you think an album celebrating blackness is going to do well in colonizing ass UK. HA

I am not even a Beyonce fan, but she should have won objectively speaking. Especially over Carpool Karaoke.

this is how I feel. I really don't care about her either way, but James Corden's tired schtick winning over her just because it featured a Beatle is fucked up.

The Self-titled AOTY snub was what really got me. She changed the industry with that release and they still told her she had to "come stronger" while having no problems awarding a Taylor Swift album right after.

Then Bey came back Lemonade and did things with her music that she's never done before and they still didn't give her the top prize. Disgraceful.
