I lost my post, so I'll hit the high points. Whether or not Smash is trolling, I wouldn't call racism. However, history has shown us that what black people do isn't truly accepted until white people do the same. I was watching my liberal media this morning about Iggy and how she was nominated over other more pronounced female rappers (Missy, EVE, etc.). She came from Australia with a sound very similar to Da Brat with no context of her lyrics. At least Eminem admitted that he was only successful because he was white doing black music and if he were black, he wouldn't be nearly as famous.

Beck has five Grammys (16 nominations - 31% wins). Beyonce has 20 (53 nominations - 38% wins).

Racism!


How many times did Beck lose to a white person? How many times did Beyonce lose to a black person? Because that would inform a discussion about race. If you want to have a discussion about Beck and Beyonce that's a separate issue.

White people have won the Best Rap album 7 times in the 20 years it's existed, including the last two years. The chances of a black person winning the best country album 7 times in the last 20 years is fucking zero. Not because there are no black country artists, and not because they aren't talented.

You make the argument with the stats, Mr. Infinite Evidence. So far, it's not very convincing.

She loses to a black person almost every time she's up for an R&B award.

Didn't Darius Rucker win something countryish?

Edit - this is not to dispute Smash's main point. Despite his constant SJWing, I think he's right.

Charley Pride.

The Columbia House Black Country Music CD Club features a lot of repeats. Ten CDs for a penny, five of which are duplicates.

Charlie Pride had to have been more than twenty years ago.

It'd be hard to tell by watching the Grammy's. On the other hand, Rap is clearly comprised of a very talented level of white men, then a more moderate level of black fellows.

Makes sense. White dudes are more likely to be able to afford thesauruses and afford whatever cable channel is showing Fresh Prince re-runs these days.

How many white male rappers are there? Eminem and Vanilla Ice?

I believe you mean Grammy Nominee for Best Rap Performance Vanilla Ice. He was beat by a black guy, so that hurts my case, bu that black guy was MC Hammer....so....Ima count him as white.

Based on 3 minutes of searching, she's only been nominated for best album twice. She did lose both times to white people. Beck has also lost twice to a white person. Haven't checked on other nominations beyond Best Album.

Edit: She beat several white people for best song in 2010. That song was "Put a Ring On It". Also, Andrea Bocelli once lost out to Lauryn Hill for Best New Artist, which makes me think the real issue is that the judges don't have any taste in music.

Beck seems like a nice guy. On the other hand he's a Scientologist, so he's either a closeted gay or a crazy person.

Well, in that case, it could also be that those crazy Scientologists have infiltrated the Grammys and are promoting their people. It wouldn't be the most psychotic thing they've done.

..a.n.d so

Grammygate begins.

Edit - speaking of ethical musicing, apparently Tom Petty gets royalties on Sam Smith's Stay With Me (song of the year) because apparently the music is the same as Won't Back Down.
