Tyla’s self-titled effort was submitted to best R&B album but was kicked to best pop vocal album by the Recording Academy’s R&B screening committee, which is not made

Good cos they need to stop forcing every mixed girl/poc into the r&b category

I don't get this comment. SHE was the one trying to force her way into the R&B category. THEY are the ones who corrected that.

Good then they learned 😇

I’ve only heard water from her and it’s pretty pop to me.

Get out

This is not shade to Tyla, Sabrina or Taylor, but times changed, before them vocally challenged Britney never got any wins and she made better music then most of them and was biggest star on the planet.
She barely got nominated. Now pop girls like her are getting their flowers, which is nice (not you Taylor)

Every now and then I'm always shocked Britney only has one Grammy! For Toxic alooneee!!

[janetdkd]

Yeah it's strange, Britney had perfect pop songs that were hits and was force. I don't know how her team didn't had more influence with prestigious~ awards

[genbu_no_miko24]

Idk either similarly Lana Del Rey hasn't won one yet but all her daughters have lol. She mentioned she didn't know you had to submit your album to be considered for a Grammy!

In Britney's case I wonder if it's just that people weren't gonna take her seriously cause she was seen as a manufactured artist.

Either way they both beat their critics in terms of expectations and influence!
