The drama behind The Weeknd and his relationship with the Grammys was aired out three days before the award show aired.
According to The New York Times, the Canadian singer announced that he will no longer be submitting his music to the Recording Academy for consideration. While announcing his withdrawal, he explains that; “Because of the secret committees, I will no longer allow my label to submit my music to the Grammys.”
This isn’t his first time blasting the award show. Last November he calls the Recording Academy—which oversees the coveted award show—”corrupt.”
“The Grammys remain corrupt,” he says in an Instagram. “You owe me, my fans and the industry the transparency.”
Currently, Megan has a different relationship with the Grammy committee. The 26-year-old rapper took home awards for Best New Artist, Best Rap Song for “Savage (Remix)” featuring Beyoncé. She won the Best Rap Performance category for the same song.
While Megan Thee Stallion didn’t win Record of the Year, pop star Billie Eilish dedicated her victory to Megan; insisting the young MC should have been the winner.
