I checked the full list and didn't see a single K-Pop solo artist or group nominated.
There were a few albums that were excellent in production and sales, so what was the reason to not nominate them?

*It's racism isn't it?

[kjesta]

what kpop artists/albums would you want to see on the list? i'm so out of the loop on kpop these days, might be nice to check out some new stuff.

[fieldofdreams]

P1Harmony "Killin' It"
Stray Kids "ATE"
Jimin's "MUSE"
Jungkook's "Golden"

The categories are stacked with amazing talent (eh I think TTPD didn't all those lol) so I'm not surprise K-Pop was ignored but still, I'd love to see more Asian artists nominated :')

[maiden0froses]

there's no way ph1harmony could've been nominated, they've gained a lot of popularity in recent times but afaik they don't even have a hit yet? if big groups aren't even considered i really doubt they had a shot... i think girl groups and maybe soloists like jk have more of a chance.

[fieldofdreams]

Oh for sure and I agree. My bias was showing, strong lol.

I really thought the soloists would come out strong :/

[maiden0froses]

Only Jungkook had a small chance, Seven was big but only him tho.

Ps. Is your icon Vernon? If so I love it lol

[fieldofdreams]

yes! It is Vernon's Miniteen "Nonver"

[maiden0froses]

Very cute lol he’s my svt bias!

[fieldofdreams]

lol great minds think alike ;) he's my bias too

Tbf Grammys hate boy/girls bands, they've never won!!

BSB, NYSNC, Spice Girls....no grammys wins ever!!

[fieldofdreams]

I forgot BSB and their contemporaries have never won :O that was a core millennial memory :O

[genbu_no_miko24]

Love your icon, it's so cute!

Yeah Grammys don't like nominating "manufactured bands~" same reason 1D never won either. Harry Styles and Justin Timberlake didn't start winning grammys until they went solo cause only then are they considered "real musicians" 😒.

[fieldofdreams]

Ty! I love NonVer 😂
And that is a shame for so many reasons *sigh* I hope that changes someday

[genbu_no_miko24]

Who's Nonver? Which group is he part of?

[fieldofdreams]

NonVer is the mascot (called a Miniteen) of Vernon (it's name spelled sort of backwards).
He's part of the rapper unit of the group Seventeen.

I'm a new Seventeen fan but I love all their music and highly recommend them.
If you want to learn more, I'd be happy to recommend the video fan guide that adds context and explains the group.

Can you post the link? I’m new to K-pop and I need more recommendations.
