16 nominations? That's ridiculous.

So you're telling me that music is diverse, and then a music publication gets blinded by ONE act?

They are just another part of the chain to SELL music as a product, one artist at a time (they shove one down our throats each year)

As much as I appreciate Billie Eilish, the same happened when she won a bazillion Grammys all in one night, while she was competing against other amazing and interesting artists (Lady Gaga, Rosalía, Ariana Grande, Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey, Lizzo, H.E.R., and so many others)

Besides, WHAT'S THE POINT OF SO MANY CATEGORIES THEN? These "specialists" in music should take their time to think what makes a certain artist or record SPECIAL, and award THAT. You cannot wipe everything and everything with one album, when there were so many talented people who worked so hard during a whole year to produce a lot of art. That's absolutely ridiculous.

It’s his pacifier for his Grammy’s rant
