AND THE BEST FUCKING THING ABOUT THE AOTY NOMINEES???? NO COUNTRY ALBUMS (or Foo Fighters)!!!!! So I would assume that Taylor has a high chance to get a lot of support from the country branch of the grammy voters. She is beloved right now, so I doubt they would steer away from her, especially after she re-released Speak Now TV this year, too (and man, was it successful!!!). I would assume also that the votes from the other music genre branches might get split between the other girlies, some of which going to Taylor too, so she definitely has higher chances of winning a 4th AOTY making history (or shall I say HERSTORY) as the only person to ever win 4 AOTY grammys. She's on the biggest tour of all time, biggest album debuts of her career in the span of a year, highest grossing concert film of all time, etc, dominating the music industry all throughout the year. IT'S LITERALLY HER YEAR. Even if it's debatable that Midnights might not be her best album (and some refer to it as MID 😒), there's still a high chance she might win.

Also, Morgan Wallen getting glossed over and left with 0 grammy nominations and 0 CMA wins even though he was topping the charts will make the BBMAs look like a joke 🤡🤡🤡🤡when he'll win certain awards over Midnights cause they erased a couple of its first week sales.

Taykarma and tayvoodoo are stronger than ever, and the Universe always works in Taylor's favor, even if that might not seem to be the case sometimes on a surface level.

These are such great, interesting points Anon.

Not gonna lie: was super pleased for all the nominations for women AND no Morg*n or Jas*n Alde*n. (Would have been ok with a Foo Fighters nod, because it was so f*cking brave to have that whole, difficult album about debilitating grief. Dave is a tender-hearted guy and he lost two of his beloved people—Taylor Hawkins and his Mom—within a couple months, plus all his unexplored Kurt grief. Just gutting.)

The nomination landscape does open the door for some fun possibilities:

- in a year that is just overflowing with badass women, have Taylor make HERSTORY, especially with the potential support of her country supporters (and those in other genres), by winning AOTY 4. It doesn’t have to be her best album—I’d argue that two that routinely are called her best have already won AOTY—just the best of the year/of those nominated and it could absolutely be considered that. (Also - Justice for Midnights! It’s terrific.)

- with cross-genre support, we see her finally getting SOTY. It’ll be days before she heads off on the major overseas thrust of the tour no one will ever forget, and an amazing achievement. More HERSTORY.

I guess we will see next weekend if Blondie effectively ignores the BBMAs because of them rigging sh*t against her.

Can’t wait to watch alongside you all.

Thanks for this ask.

That record, well they can take it for themselves lol. No one is getting an award because they became most streamed k-song on spotify. The only option in west would've been AMA but AMA is not being conducted this year. Rest western shows are dominated by western artists. Forget about all soty categories in korea as it's dominated by girls there.

Where we have chance is 3 awards

1) VMA - best kpop - tracking time gives us a favour as it ends in July. Votes- WE NEED TO WIN IT NO MATTER WHAT. The only thing is they are shady af. Payment matters here. So if bh decides to pay there also we will be troubled. Next competition will be Jisoo - flowers. Blackpink already has a history in paying and winning VMA. But I hope we can win it with LC's incredible results and Votes.

Now there are 2 bonus categories: Best New artist and Best choreography. We MAY get a nomination but not sure lol

2. BBMA - best selling song - sales, sales, sales matters for our category. Jimin is leading 2nd here. Take lead asap.

Bonus categories: Best selling artist: again we chance but only if we increase sales

3. MAMA - best male soloist - we are leading there currently. But JK will definitely surpass rest nominees soon. What we should do is keep FACE over all streams till November atleast. INCREASE FACE ASAP. Seven is leading by 17M per week stream now. We will reach 1B by October. But so will SEVEN or even faster and it will definitely have digital points more than us. Next is judges point. Idk if they'll vote for a English single more than a whole Korean album tbh unless bh involve there too.

Bonus categories: best collaboration for VIBE. As of now we are leading there. Idk if English singles are considered for best collab noms as L&R was not. But it was Charlie's song while Seven is JK's, a Korean artist featuring western artist. I haven't seen them considering Ice cream by blackpink either as it was English song with Selena in it. If SEVEN is considered forget about it. But if it's not, then we have a big chance to win as VIBE is Korean song with 2 Korean artists.

Next is best solo dance performance - We have LC and SMF as strong candidates. I haven't seen any solo choreographies 'outdancing' Jimin there lol. The only competition will be Kai's Rover if any.

These are the categories I can think of which we have most chances in.

Hi anon,

Ahh thanks for pulling through!!!

This is good info!

So keep doing what we've been doing. But do it harder! Buy more and stream more.

Our Jimin deserves this ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

(Why did you have to mention Rover?! It gets stuck in my head and I can't get it out -_-)

[bubmyg]

lmao, I checked bbmas and it's literally same names in every nomination, why they didn't just add these k artists to other nominees, if they choose english songs only

i mean the other kpop nominations aren’t english songs n the language comment was directed at the fact that latto is in a kpop category rn bc of sheer xenophobia. i cannot stress this enough idc what language a korean artist sings in they just shouldn’t be labeled kpop as default regardless

BTS Paved the Way

Guys this is huge! Not only have BTS been nominated for a 3rd year for Top Social Artist, but they have made history yet again by rightfully earning a second nomination for Top Group/Duo!

Do you understand what the significance of that is? It means that 7 boys, who were once total strangers, courageously made the decision to endure hours of gruelling training, countless years of hate-filled commentary, and their own personal sacrifices in order to form this incredible and inspirational phenomenon, as well as become undeniable global superstars, and because of all their success, plus ARMY's undying love/support, BTS have now played this huge part in helping to pave the way for other Korean and Asian artists who wish to transition into Western media. It's mind-blowing when you think about it.

A couple years ago when BTS was first introduced to the Billboard stage, there were many who reacted in a negative and harsh manner. You see, some believed that the nomination was not fair and either the boys wormed their way into the line-up due to simply a popularity contest, basically saying that they were piggy-backing off the K-Pop industry's existing fame, or, others felt that because of the simple fact they didn't sing complete English versions of their songs, that somehow proved they had no place being involved anywhere near the category they would eventually come to win. Although both outlooks are equally misconstrued in their own ways, I guess there could be some sound arguments to the whole thing.

Now in no way am I agreeing with these opinions, but it is true that BTS had been growing in popularity by the time they received their first BB nomination for Top Social Artist, and this fact probably did end up playing a huge part in why the boys took home the title; however, that doesn't discredit the unfathomable amounts of hard work and passion that was put into every song, album, MV, and stage performance. I think it's pretty clear by now how much planning and effort BTS incorporates with their music, so why shouldn't all of it be rewarded with something meaningful? The award was beyond deserved.

So anyways, flash foward to the next year when BTS found themselves winning yet again for Top Social Artist and the reception was a little less hostile. By this time, Love Yourself: Tear had been gaining love and the album's title song FAKE LOVE had been soaring across the charts. More and more people were becoming fans and the boys began to feel even more love from a combination of both old and new ARMYs. Of course you can't have success without at least some haters, so when BTS did manage to win Top Social Artist for consecutive years, beating out fan favorites and huge contenders, there were those who blamed the Western music industry for "pandering" to outside influences in order to make themselves look good and save face. So due to this reaction, ARMY also came under fire and some even went so far as to start calling us toxic and spiteful, saying that we would slander anyone who voted against or didn't openly support our boys. Although this did happen in some cases, those who chose to act this way were, in fact, not part of the ARMY at all, and instead provided a twisted version of what we are really about. But let me remind you that this is happens with everyone, ARMY are not exclusive in this problematic situation.

Ok, so with that thought aside, let skip ahead to the true reason I decided to write this. So it has been recently announced that BTS have not only been nominated for Top Social Artist for 3 consecutive years, but also they have earned their first nomination that requires more than just a "popularity vote". Being chosen as a nominee for Top Group/Duo means that the music is the main focus, which in turn means that people are now being asked to recognition the importance of BTS as genuine artists and not just 7 pretty faces. That's amazing!

As sad as it is, it's true that Asian artists don't receive as much credibility as American artists when it comes to our country's music industry; that why with this nomination, I'm hoping that BTS could be the catalyst that changes that for the future and for future aspiring Asian artists as well. The above article expands on this when it says,

"...It also reflects the way critics don't think work from boy bands merit serious analysis, let alone the music of Asian artists, who still are underrepresented in the American music industry. This nomination feels like a big step. While their nomination is based on streams and airplay, and not critical praise per se, it shows that fans care about BTS' music as much as they care about their personalities. And when the industry truly understands that (as we saw happen with boy bands dating all the way back to The Beatles), it is a stepping stone to more respect from the industry and critics."

As a supporter of these boys and as an ARMY myself, I can't help but to become emotional while writing this. I keep thinking about how much I know this achievement means and how many years of struggles, doubts, hardships, and trials these boys had to go through to reach this exact moment. I realize for some it might not seem like much, a smaller achievement on the grand scale of everything BTS have going for them as of right now, but this is truly a monumental moment for them. When it comes to K-Pop, there are some bands who have allowed their style and sound to be transformed by outside opinions and criticisms; however, one of the aspects that I respect BTS the most for is their grounded beliefs and the fact that they refuse to let themselves be influenced or manipulated by others. They understand that music is universal, and that no matter the language, if the sound and message is important enough people will listen. They've been doing this from their debut and they will continue to til the very end. BTS are from South Korea, therefore they are going to sing in their native tongue. Yes they might incorporate some English words here and there, but Namjoon has expressed multiple times that, although they do appreciate the advice, BTS will never release a full English album. I would never expect such a thing either and I think it is very commendable for them to say this. I don't think people from different countries should have to cater to the will of Americans, I believe instead, we should appreciate those who are willing to share their language, their culture, and their hearts with us and accept it for what it is. When I see how strongly BTS have chosen to stick to their roots, it gives me even more of a genuine vibe from them. Anyone who listens to their music will see right away that they know who they are, they are confident in their message, and that not even the language barrier can destroy that. They have not worked years practicing and perfecting their craft just to have complete strangers tell them how they should and shouldn't act or speak. This Top Group nomination is blatant proof of that, and the fact that both EXO and GOT7, two other successful Korean groups, are also among the talent to be nominated this year for Top Social Artist is beautiful in its own right. Asian representation is here to stay; recognize it and respect it. ✌

Congrats again to BTS for earning such a monumental nomination and for making history yet again! You 7 never fail to amaze me 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

BTS nominee TOP SOCIAL ARTIST

[musicisthelife]

[whysojiminimnida]

Hello hello!!

Since you mentioned them going to the BBMAs, do you really think that’s a possibility? I’ve seen people speculating them going to the MET; or them possibly doing more concerts (if they actually end up going to the MET), but it all seems like a lot of mmm… ‘noisy hopes’ let’s say. I would love for them to actually do something else since I’m in NY, but I’m not getting my hopes up for that — my heart can’t take any more heartbreak after the Grammys.

Anyways, I’ve come to value your opinion since I started following you, and I know the question is not ‘jikook’ related but still, I would like to know your thoughts.

🤞🏼✌🏼🤞🏼✌🏼

Hello hello to you too! Okay so it's like this. This BBMAs are set for May 15 at... the same place they just did the Grammys - MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. (They'll air in the US on NBC that night, 8 ET I think). No performers - or nominees - have yet been announced. They're supposed to come out this month and if BTS is gonna be there they better get ON THAT because their calendar is filling up.

It sort of hurt me a little bit to link that but we do love an official source in this house even if the official source is an asshat. NOW HERE'S WHAT I THINK.

I THINK there is every chance they will not perform. Especially if they have already left Vegas to go the heck HOME and maybe perform at the Yoon inauguration on May 10. Given the way that BTS has been treated by most US-based awards shows (*coughgrammycough*) and by Billboard itself I would not be shocked if they just went

IF THEY DO PERFORM it COULD be virtual. Not like they haven't done that several times. They could also be on hand via livestream to accept, if they win. OR they could be invited, decide to do something amazing around the comeback and/or more tour dates (like around the MET - that makes sense) and blow the doors off the place. Hell they know their way around that stage, now. And if they do I hope they bring in a huge stage, I'm still sad we got hosed by the kid from The Lab all teasing us with ON at the Grammys. TL;DR - I dunno. I have ideas. I think they've been invited to perform already and that there is at least one nomination likely. I think they won't give their answer before the nominations are released. And I think that there may be some tighter negotiation, after the Grammys and the last run-in with Billboard Magazine, about how BTS and by extension ARMY will be treated if they accept. But what the hell do I know, I'm just a salty bitch because I'm not going to Vegas. :) Thanks, anon! You nice! Keep going!
