BTS has earned four consecutive No. 1 albums in the U.S. and four Top 10 hits on the Hot 100. They& #39;ve been selling out stadiums for years. If you& #39;re going to nominate them for Best New Artist, you might as well nominate Harry Styles too.
To be clear, I have no idea whether BTS will get a BNA nomination (or any others). I have little faith or interest in the Grammys. But whether the show is a popularity contest or a celebration of artistic merit, BTS *obviously* deserves to be nominated in the major categories.
This isn& #39;t even a matter of fandom. It& #39;s like, extremely textbook lol. Their new album sold a ton of copies and critics unanimously praised it. Ergo, Grammy nominations. Don& #39;t tell me BTS isn& #39;t qualified for AOTY when BECK& #39;S & #39;MORNING PHASE& #39; WON.
Also—if BTS DOES get nominated or win Best New Artist, that& #39;s cool! If they get submitted then it obviously matters to them/their team. It& #39;s just that logically, they& #39;re capable of/qualified for so much more.
Anywayyyy back to work, all this feedback makes me think I& #39;ll have to write about this at length tomorrow
