I don’t really care about the Grammys nor do I think they’re an accurate reflection of the “best” music out there right now. It’s all quite political and industry-driven.Camtina2 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 17, 2022 11:15 pmAs a Rosalia stan are u pissed that she's not nominated in the album of the year category of the general Grammy's? Especially since she won this one? I feel like there are some messed up Grammy politics and shadiness tryina screw her over. Are u ok with just this? I'm just curious? I love both her and X by the way. So ur, not the only one on here who loves Rosalia.Motomami wrote: ↑Thu Nov 17, 2022 11:07 pm I love Xtina, but Rosalía deserved to win AOTY.
The top categories were a long shot and the double nominations in that Urban category meant she would split votes. I had higher hopes for the regional Mexican category, but perhaps it’s best she didn’t win since she’s not Mexican.
I’m SO SO happy she won at least one Grammy though. This now strengthens her chances to win the English Grammy. She also looked and sounded amazing tonight.
I see them more as a vehicle for promotion and exposure. Do I think Rosalía was snubbed for an AOTY nom at the regular Grammy’s? Absolutely, but she’s so popular and revered right now that it doesn’t upset me. Christina benefits from it a lot more imo so I care more.
