Not watching but is like this again?

I like how black activists consider Latin Americans to be ‘PoC’ when they need more people to boost the numbers on the victim complex bandwagon but the moment Latin American writers, directors, editors and actors get nominations when black people don’t, suddenly it’s #AllWhiteOscars and institutional racism.

Black activists try to huddle every other non-white race under the PoC umbrella in an attempt to rile up an ‘us versus white people’ mentality but the moment black people are perceived as being overshadowed or discriminated against, then the other ‘PoCs’ are shoved off the bandwagon and into the dirt.

Latin Americans are ‘PoC’ until they get a nomination, then suddenly they’re white. Latin Americans are ‘PoC’ until one of them kills a black teenager in self defence, then suddenly they’re white. Latin Americans are ‘PoC’ until several of them run as Republicans, then suddenly they’re white.

A film written, directed and shot by Mexican men won best picture last year but because Selma didn’t win anything, suddenly the ceremony was just a bigoted ‘white supremacy’ awards organisation.

Do these self-righteous rich whiny crybabies have short term memory loss or something? Literally only two years ago, a film focused entirely on the evils of American slavery won several major Academy Awards, including best picture. Lupita Nyong’o won best supporting actress. John Ridley won best screenplay. Oh and a Mexican man won best director but I suppose he’s considered white because he beat a black director, huh?

The very idea of ‘PoC solidarity’ goes out the window when the black activist narrative is threatened. The narrative, to them, is maintaining the lie that the white man oppresses black people. Black activists very often throw other so called ‘people of colour’ under the bus when it suits them. In fact, the entire ‘PoC’ term is geared primarily towards black Americans.

Anyone who is mad about this is still under the false delusion that the Grammy's actually value artistic merit and craftsmanship. I'm not mad because I've always felt the Grammys to be one of the most irrelevant award shows on the planet.

I'm glad Taylor won so people will stop placing any type of value on this ridiculous charade.

In 10 years, the true album of 2015 will be decided and I think we all know which one it will be.

But all that being said, Fuck the Grammys.

That's fucking retarded. 1989 was released in October 2014.

The Grammys should operate with nominations ending the same time the calendar year does, and then have the award ceremony in June or July so that all of the songs and albums have had a period of at least 6 months to where they're no longer new.

It would. Which is why it would never have gone to kendrick because they only seek to prop up the big moneymakers is music. They don't give a shit about art. Plain and simple. They have a lot more to gain from Taylor winning than Kendrick. because Kendrick is an artist first, business man second.

Taylor is very smart, but she also cares about her brand and she's very good and selling her product. Even if she's seemingly in control (and I think she is somewhat). Her goals fit the status quo much easier.

I don't think this is a race issue. It's an artistic one.

Let the news and social media decide when you get upset, then try and make people believe you aren’t dumb.

The big problem with most of you is that you cant make up your minds. You claim you don’t need the approval of “white people” and then you beg and whine for acceptance and approval. If you have your pride, what does it matter who accepts you and who doesn’t?

“If we truly have pride in who we are as African Americans, we should not need inclusion or acknowledgement from institutions or events that we claim would go out of their way to reward whites over blacks

once i saw the front cover of kendrick's album, i realized it would just be completely racist through and through.

Do you guys seriously believe TPAB will be a classic 10 years from now... lmao

There's a difference bwetween bwetween being praised as a classic and becoming a classic. Anyone with a working brain can figure out critics had something to gain when they praised Kendrick. There's no spot for Kendrick in 2025 that's any bigger than Young Thug's or Migos.

The cover isn't racist you delusional fucking moron. It's anti-regan (the dead president on the front is Reagan). His policies as President were extremely destructive in regard to the black community, in particular "the War on Drugs". It's anti-reagan.

Kendrick is forever. He'll go down as one of the greatest rappers to have ever held a microphone. His words are like bolts of electricity to my ears that give my mind an orgasm. His performances are so full of showmanship and convey a powerful message. He honours his peers and his culture in an artistic way that is not matched by any other artist. In my opinion you can't even put him in a bubble with any other rapper, this man is on his own planet.

The fact that this young generation believes so, certainly suggests that. Because we decide what albums we show our kids.

Marvin Gaye, renowned RnB/Soul artist who was known for being socially conscious to the problems facing inner city people during the vietnam war.
His album, What's Going On, is probably his most famous work, and is from the point of view of a soldier returning home form Vietnam only to see how much pain and trouble this war has cause not only the people who went to war, but the families who lost sons to what many people said was a pointless war.

It's message resonated with people even to day, drawing parallels to the war on terror.

King Kunta is a banger. The others have really strong beats and base but I think they don't really make for great "party songs" maybe I'm wrong.

Anyway, this isn't my observation. It's the critique I've heard from people I've talked and from conversations I've had on internet boards.

There's plenty of people who feel the album isn't catchy or fun enough. I merely referring to how they saw it.

Even if he doesn't care what race of people listen to his music, you can't relate if you're white. So what's the appeal?
