Ft. Stewart, Ga


So the Grammy's ppl got salty because he wanted to perform at the Super Bowl. Even though they came to an agreement where he'd perform at both. After getting snubbed like this, he should tell the Grammy's to kick rocks.



Thats insane.


The Super Bowl is LITERALLY the Creme De La Creme for performances for artists. Sales and streams SHOOT up after an artists performs. The Grammys trying to put The Weeknd on lock is stupid as all hell. ESPECIALLY When performing doesn’t guarantee you a W.


Michael Jackson had the biggest selling album
Of the year with Bad. Was the first artist to have five singles reach number 1 from one album. He performed and won ZERO Grammys


Kendrick had SEVEN nominations the year GKMC was nominated. He performed and won ZERO grammys


India Arie was nominated for 8 Grammys the year Acoustic Soul dropped. She performed and won ZERO Grammys.

Sound sound sound
Not going to lie I had no idea his album done that well, don't follow weeknd nowadays.

It's one of those years, if your not paying attention to an artist like that you could miss how big of a year they had since they aren't performing all over the world.

I don’t know how the Grammys could miss it though..but think jhene aiko deserved a nomination for album of the year

My mom found out who The Weeknd was this year :russ:

it’s probably the biggest overall album of the year..and definitely song of the year (from just an audience and success standpoint)

pretty sure that song was used as a theme song for like every big event this year lol...wrestlemania, sports playoffs , etc.

My Pops Forever RIP
Word is he submitted everything in the POP genre instead of R&B which led to him being snubbed.


Which is 100% Racism pure and simple. I haven’t been a Weeknd fan since he was writing for Drake in the House Of Balloon days but there’s no ignoring the impact his album had this year. The Academy told him to keep his black ass in the negro field.


Maybe this will curb his appetite for skinny ugly white women:yeshrug:
He coulda submitted it in the classical department for all I care. Nominate that breh
