Just so everyone is clear about the shit show that happened at the Grammys last night, the academy had an actual meeting accusing Beyonce of trying to “game” the system by dipping into several genres– such as country, blues and rock– on Lemonade and that is very much the reason they latently disrespected her.

The New York Times reported on this- “According to a senior music executive who attended the meeting, and spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the internal deliberations, there was a “very spirited debate that took maybe five minutes” and included several voters’ suspicions that by recording a rock song and a country song (“Daddy Lessons”) on her album “Lemonade,” Beyoncé was trying to “run the table” on nominations in a diverse group of categories.” (LINK)

The Grammys literally punished Beyonce– a black woman and the greatest entertainer of the past couple decades– for stretching the boundaries on music. Instead of acting with any dignity and commending such an outstanding and genre defying piece of work, they considered it an egregious threat and showed it with last night.
