‘The Album’ dropped in Oct & the closing window of submissions for Grammy’s was August.

They weren’t eligible for this year but are for the next.

I’m happy BTS got a nom though (but they did deserve more).

Here’s a list of a few records broken by @BLACKPINK:

• @BLACKPINK & Taylor Swift are the only female artists to sell over 1 million album copies in 2020.

• Most viewed artists on YT for 2020 with 4.96 billion views.

• ‘The Album’ becomes the best selling album by a K-Pop female act in 21 years.

• @BLACKPINK's "DDU-DU DDU-DU" is the oldest song by a female group charting on this week's Billboard Global 200 Excl. US chart.

• Best-selling Korean Girl Group in the US and UK

• Only Korean GG to have multiple entries in Hot 100.

• The Album is the highest Charting Album WW by a Korean GG with 29 entries (US, UK, Italy, Australia, Germany, France, Canada, etc).

• ‘The Album’ is the most streamed Korean GG Album of all time on Spotify

• BLACKPINK most subscribed group in YouTube

• DDDD is the most viewed MV on YouTube by a Korean Group

• GG with most entries in BB Excl. US & BB Global 200

• ‘The Album’ has the highest 1st day & 1st week debut streams in Spotify for a GG (only GG to debut with 30M+ streams in a day & over 140M+ streams in a week)

• HYLT, the best selling Korean Single Album of all time.

• 14+ BILLION views on YT.

• Most subbed group on YT.

‘The Album’ is their debut album. With only one album & a few EP’s, @BLACKPINK did this. So yes, they are deserving & worthy.

If ‘The Album’ came out before August, it most likely would’ve received a nom.

I appreciate, admire & respect BTS, their art & their fans but please show respect back. Same applies for a lot of Blinks.

I hope BTS win & I hope to see more Korean groups nominated in the future.
