Did BTS get snubbed? Some ARMYs feel so upon seeing the 2021 GRAMMY predictions from Billboard.
On June 15, for next year's "Album of The Year," "Record of The Year," "Song of The Year," and "Best New Artist," Billboard selected their "greatest predictions."
The forecasts were largely based on the accomplishments of the performers' Billboard chart. Still, even after remarkably high graph records and sales from BTS, they aren't included in the list of "Best Bets," "Good Chance," or "Within Reach" for prospective candidates.
Both BTS fans and non-fans find it surprising that the band hasn't been mentioned, considering their achievements.
"Surprised that BTS is not on the list? not at all ... even though it is the one that sells the most stadiums there in the USA ... the credibility of the academy is already at stake."
"I don't listen to their music but by their success, they should be there! I've seen some videos about them and they seem very talented. Idk why they wouldn't be nominated."
Some have also argued that the GRAMMYs program is "manipulated" and biased.
"BTS deserves to be here, but I'm not even surprised, we all know it's rigged."
"I want to ask this writer Paul Grein to explain to us why not BTS they have got numbers they have got sales their music is up to the mark but still not considered for it??"
"They're not white nor American."
Potential candidates for this year's 63rd GRAMMY Awards will be announced at a later date. The event is scheduled for January 31, 2021.
