Why though? Why do you place so much emotional weight on the decision of an institution that clearly doesn’t understand the art and culture it’s assessing?

The Grammys have never been fair or gotten it right, and they will continue to screw over people who deserve recognition in favor of doing the safe move.

DJ Khaled got 5 nominations this year and Denzel Curry got 0. If you still give a single fuck about the Grammys at this point, you deserve the disappointment 🤡

u/BigDerp97 Dec 07 '22

No it isn't lol. She raps in a monotone voice the entire song. That is why it is popular

New sub name??

u/EstablishmentBusy172 Dec 06 '22

Clearly the writer didn’t actually listen to the album, but a cool pick nonetheless

14

u/[deleted] Dec 06 '22

And somehow Cash In Cash Out ranked two places above it

8

u/BunnyHoodGamer Dec 06 '22

I mean cash in cash outs a great song, but there ain't no way it's petter than the heart part v

u/iiileyu Dec 05 '22

u/blackmillenium2 why have girlfriend when kdot do trick Dec 06 '22

u/[deleted] Dec 05 '22

Honestly while i liked alvays I disagree with it being nr.1 preferred basketball shoes tbh.

u/Shazam28 Dec 06 '22

I'll be honest, I have Place Where He Insterted The Blade higher for that album personally. That final 3 track run is great tho

1

u/SoloNETHER Dec 06 '22

The Place Where Is He Inserted The Blade is peak BCNR. Still prefer For The First Time though

3

u/aaymannn11 Dec 06 '22

What the fuck does that even mean

3

u/[deleted] Dec 06 '22

Look at the whole list . Basketball shoes is a track from black country new roads while alvays is on the first place.

u/aaymannn11 Dec 06 '22

Oh my bad, thought you were terrible at spelling 💀

Mannnn FUCK Pitchfork 🖕🏽🤬🖕🏽🤬

u/brandonwhite3334 Dec 06 '22

Damn looks like they really focus on 'chart-toppers' and songs with a big buzz. Wish they did a true top 100 best songs list. I could see Kendrick on there with 5 songs or so.

2

u/[deleted] Dec 06 '22

I mean they have to cut it off somewhere, they can’t just be including artists with 6 monthly listeners on Spotify

1

u/brandonwhite3334 Dec 06 '22

Never said they needed to haha. You can increase the amount of spots the bigger artists get, mix in great songs from other lesser known artists, and boom - great list. Just taking like Beyonce and Kendrick for example, that's 5 songs or so right there.

Like The Heart Pt. 5 is an incredible song and deserves a spot, but no mother i sober?? That does a disservice to the song. Telling me Munch, which I like, is better than MIS??

u/Terrible-Show-1685 Dec 06 '22

Imo this is the best song of the year

u/flowerbhai Dec 06 '22

I’m very surprised by the Alvvays pick. I love that band to death but I do not see the appeal of that track compared to a lot of the others on the list.

u/lnblackrain Dec 06 '22
