Every year at the Grammys, all of the most idolized musicians convene to acknowledge their greatest hits released of that year. This tends to spark debates about who was truly deserving of each award. This year, many fans were let down and even went as far as saying the event was rigged.

One award that sparked controversy was Beyoncé winning Best Country Album and Album of the Year with her new album ‘Cowboy Carter’. Beyoncé received a lot of backlash, as she is not known for making country music. Fans of artists like Post Malone and Chris Stapleton felt like they were more deserving. People were questioning her country roots and felt like her album was not traditional enough to be considered for a Grammy. People were questioning her country roots and felt like her album was not traditional enough to be considered for a Grammy in a country category. Students at Apex HIgh have voiced that there were better albums and Beyonce’s wasn’t as known. The reactions from other nominated artists, such as Kasey Muskraves, also evoked reactions from viewers. It appeared as if Kasey was upset about her loss, which sent more hate towards Beyoncé.

Fans were also upset that huge artists like Billie Eilish and Taylor Swift didn’t receive a single award, despite being nominated for multiple categories each. Billie was spotted being emotional when Beyoncé was accepting her Album of the Year award, but she seemed to have a great time at the rest of the event. She was photographed with other nominated pop artists, like Chappel Roan and Sabrina Carpenter.

While it’s been 64 years since the first annual Grammys award show, each year brings new debates and disagreements. Music lovers can never come to an agreement on who should take home the trophies.
