The Grammys received backlash yesterday as arguably the year's biggest artist was snubbed. It's been reported he was snubbed due to choosing to perform at the Super Bowl.

A true artist and musician 💜

Honestly, I wish she got nominated for when she released Mad Love. Tinashe should have gotten something for going independent. It was acclaimed for sure

[sadteenager]

do you have pics of her FYC page? I can't find it and I'm curious.

I personally wouldn’t care if it wasn’t for the fact that Justin Bieber got nominated for his flop album that sounds like elevator music

Why the Grammys have to be a thing when all they have done was showing their asses every year? Rinse and repeat the controversies. Like it’s been so boring tbh.

[ghostsaddle]

so boring, get rid of them tbh

[ohwutevernvm]

Agreed

Just another white, local show.

He also called Rina Sawayama's album his album of the year, I think, I love how he stays listening to all the new music <3

I remember when he said Factory Floor’s self titled was one of his favorite new records and it’s a mix of post industrial, spoken word and acid House. I always respected him after that
It reminds me of Iggy Pop who has a BBC Radio show and always picks very interesting new musicians for his playlists
Elton STANS Rina, when she was snubbed for Mercury Prize he posted about it multiple times
