>Kendrick Lamar lost to Daft Punk. Beyoncé lost to Beck. Kendrick Lamar lost to Taylor Swift. Beyoncé lost to Adele. The Grammys are a scripted event: a black artist releases an ambitious album that defines its year and embodies the deliberate craft the Grammys supposedly reward; votes are cast largely by suits whose sole form of sustenance is industry politics as a drip-feed into their ears; someone else wins.
i mean, they're right but that's been obvious forever.

>implying Beyonce is even in the same artistic argument as Kendrick Lamar i know this is a race-baiting thread but isn't this kind of sucking up to the pop establishment embarrassing

Both beyonce and adele made mediocre albums. Danny brown, swans, and death grips should have been nominated. They actually had good albums last year. Adele and beyonce are the worst examples of women making good albums. Women like Julia holter, weyes blood, joanna newsom, noname gypsy actually make good music - not hacks like adele and beyonce. All beyonce and adele have is good voices.

I mean its true. The association is largely filled with professional suit-types.
If you get triggered by this, you don't know much about the music business.
