You'll stop being shocked when you realized award shows are for the celebration of white mediocrity.

And so is most of ONTD based on those Taylor Swift defenders

Cowboy Carter was pretty good but the CMAs have never had their own best interests at heart given the 2 year redemption tour Morgan Wallen's been on and Post Malone coming in to put a bow on that. Honestly I've lost a ton of respect for Post Malone over this, but I've never been a huge fan of his anyway.

From a devil's advocate standpoint, I saw this coming when we realized she didn't work with any big name country songwriters for this album. For whatever dumb reason, the industry saw that as a snub and is snubbing her back a bit I think.

Shaboozey DESERVEDLY nominated, every country fan I know has practically made it their new anthem.

I didn't expect a sweep of nominations, but at the VERY least one for Texas Hold 'Em.
It was one of the biggest singles of the year. To say it's a snub is an understatement.

I wonder if the Grammys will end up nominating and awarding her in country categories (while still getting snubbed in the big major ones).

I remember the Grammy Country Committee rejecting Daddy Lesson's nomination. So I'm expecting nothing from that corner.

For anyone interested in Black country/roots music, this festival is happening in Durham NC next year

Are we actually surprised, though????
