How non-white of them…
“After this year, to have an all-white slate of nominees seemed really tone deaf,” Moock said.
Moock, who wrote songs about American heroes such as Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr., said that while he would like to win a Grammy, he does not “want it like this, where the playing field’s not even.”
Joe Mailander, one of the Okee Dokee Brothers, said that his group “thought that it was the strongest thing we could do, to stand with people of color whose albums are too often left out of the Grammy nominations.”

Seems like they should change the name to “-ussy award”.
Nobody gives a rats ass about your wokeness.
It just looks like they’re doing blacks a favor by not accepting nominations. Patting them on the head. lol.
1. why do they assume they’d win anyway.
2. Never heard of any of them. And I’m not ‘old and cranky’.
Wussy or pussy, which one is it. If this keeps up every aspect of our society will be segregated again by race or color or sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, political worldview etc. and everything will become mediocre because of enforced diversity. Nothing will ever be great again because it won’t be allowed because it might hurt some else’s feelings. Boo fucking hoo!
Three virtue signalers decline their Grammy nominations because they recognize that this is not recognition for achievement and is a political stunt they can get a recognition cookie thrown their way for being a in step with the zeitgeist.
If you feel an overwhelming amount of white guilt, suicide is the sure cure. Pass the word.
The black recipients who are given the awards instead will be very proud of their achievements!
geoff – I hoid they’re making a movie about 2020 called “Wussy Pussy Pansy Spy” starring Eric Swallwel and Diane Feinstein
Asterisk Grammys are what result from these stunts. The asterisk doesn’t need to be there, people will do that on this own. All people do this, especially those who claim otherwise.
Condescension. Absolute dissrespect FOR all other races but white. They are the racists, in THEIR MINDS THE REALITY IS THIS…They are not prejudiced against the “lesser races”. The races that in their minds can’t achieve anything on their own merrits, THE POOR CREATURES! They are willing to step asside and let them have the win.
Give em to New York’s Governor. He accepts awards he has no business getting.
I wouldn’t accept a Grammy either … but because most of the music they award really sucks!
Tell me how many awards nasty talentless Madonna has won.
Another award ceremony the devolved into a mutual admiration
circle jerk 3 decades ago. Give them an honorary “Dindu Nuffin”
award and send them on their way.
” … he does not “want it like this, where the playing field’s not even.””
Why isn’t the playing field even?
I can only echo the comments left by one person at the end of the article: Why not make a REAL statement by donating one year’s income to a black college?
Simple fix:
A Caucasian Grammy Award
A Negro Grammy Award
A Mongoloid Grammy Award
(I still wouldn’t GAF)
You’re welcome.

Kind of funny, really – I declined my nomination for the Nobel Prize in Physics, the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, and the Nobel Peace Prize cuz I don’t see wogs getting the nominations they think they “deserve.”
I also declined any nominations for the Pulitzer, the Oscar, or any of those other ones – also for the same reason.
Yep … it’s a sacrifice, but somebody’s gotta stand up for the wogs … and for the other useless pustules who think they’re winners … they can’t seem to win without help from the honkies …

at this point in time ANY “performance award” is akin to a participation trophy
the current list “entertainers” are completely lacking talent
Kissing Black ass is more contagious among the young than COVID.
Must be a side effect of heavy soy use.
They were deeply traumatized from watching an old episode of ROOTS.
Because being black is more important than talent.
After AlGore and o’Bammy, most awards have become an indicator of someone who needs mocking for undeservedness.
“And this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award for Narcisism goes to ….”
(actually “President Elect” Biden for his willingness to take an oath UNDER GOD that everyone, including God, knows he couldn’t earn if he were the last survivor on the planet)
Wouldn’t it be more insulting for a black artist to receive an award only because the white artist who won it first turned it down? “Oh, well — guess we gotta give it to you, then” really doesn’t seem like much of a recognition of someone’s talents or achievements.
When everything you do is predicated on race, that makes you the racist. It’s axiomatic. Idiots.
They could really help if they give away all their wealth, contracts, stop eating and breathing and just flung themselves into the sea to be digested.
That is if the really cared.
Grammy, shammy. It used to be a great show. Haven’t watched it in years!
What is a Grammy anyway? Let alone a Grammy nominee? Does it have any effect upon the world, or my life? I think it has something to do with “music” or something like it. Music today is $hit….it all sounds the same. You cannot tell if it is performed by a woman, or a man, or someone who thinks they are something other than what they are. AKA mentally ill. What a load……
