The way I’ve been on everyone’s ass whenever they say this album was undeserving of the win. If anything, I think it shows that people love the artists more than the music. Don’t get me wrong the music of the other contenders were fantastic, but the message of Cowboy Carter is what drove it home.
Doechii is on the host committee for the Met Gala, along with Janelle Monáe, Angel Reese, Ayo Edebiri, Sha’Carri Richardson, Audra McDonald, etc. I’m so freaking excited to see what these gorgeous women and men do for the Met this year
@@orangegaytoradeloverit’s not surprising that y’all wouldn’t understand the cultural impact of cowboy carter and how it changed the country landscape while sparking conversations about the overlooked black pioneers in country music. its mixture of numerous sub genres is just one part of its ambition on how it told the history of country music but through a black perspective, something that’s never been done before in the genre. i wish y’all would open your mind to other music instead of just focusing on your faves lmao. that is not how you engage with art. brat is my most listened to album of the year, but cowboy carter is going to be the album that will impact music the most for years to come
i hate to hear people say they don’t get how this particular beyonce album won. like it’s because yall are always late to real art im sorry😭 people talked shit about renaissance and lemonade too and then years later everyone can recognize they’re great works
can we talk about how doechii collaborated with tyler the creator, another black bisexual (who has won two grammys for best rap album) and then doechii wins? iconic. legendary. DESERVED. i'm so happy for her !! omg and imagine tyler wins next year for chromakopia, two black bisexual winners in a row thus making history. oh i know the conservatives would be MALDING.
Beyonce winning album of the year for Cowboy Carter was the ultimate shocker for me cause i thought she would never win that, but justice for Renaissance, Lemonade and Self Titled though
what a year for women in music and thank god the academy is recognizing that. sabrina is unreal; funny AND talented???? love her down. doechii winning best rap album was so incredibly deserved like OH. MY. GOD. an aboslute masterpiece front-to-back of a mixtape. her talent and energy is unmatched. absolutely wept at her speech esp growing up as a Black woman (even though i'm non-binary) being told those things OHHHH. i LOVE her. HER PERFORMANCE !!!!!!!! she's such a brilliant creative. chappell is such a breath of fresh air. she's so theatrical and dramatic and it's Everything! she reminds me a lot of lady gaga's comeup. i love her realness and that she's not afraid to speak up on/share her opinions on issues that matter. her voice is Unreal girl can SANGGGGGG. beyonce winning best country album and aoty was so impactful and powerful. so incredibly deserved too like Are We Kidding??? i simply couldn't believe it because THEY REALLY DON'T GIVE BEYONCE THAT MUCH CREDIT LIKE EVER. this also meant ryan beatty (who holy fuck is incredibly underrated and should've won grammys for calico) won for his songwriting credits on cowboy carter and i couldn't have been more estatic. kendrick winning record of the year (and four other grammys for not like us) was insanity and if i were drake i would never show my face to the world ever again. brat is a great driving album imo so you Might like it. von dutch especially makes you feel like speed racing. all in all: the Grammys SHOULD leave you wanting to listen to more artists and i'm so glad to hear that you left feeling that way! (also unrelated but thank you for your continued support for masking because it feels like no one around me cares about covid anymore whereas i very much still do care about it and try to urge others who've stopped caring to care again)
I felt terrible watching the hurt on Billie's face. But then I remembered she has 2 Oscars at age 22. Imo, she deserved something for BOAF but she will be okay. She's not going anywhere. The industry loves her. She'll have many more opportunities to win a second album of the year. Idk what Bey has planned for the future but I get the feeling that this was one of her last opportunities and I'm so happy for her! This was long overdue.
It’s so interesting how you say you’re too old to be a stan because 24 was the exact age when I started to feel that way too😂 Idk why that’s like the nail in the coffin but it is!
i told myself if eternal sunshine wasn't going to win (and sadly i just knew it wasn't, the academy loves to snub ariana but still use her for promotion. i'm glad she doesn't bother to show up lmao) then i'd be happy if at least short n' sweet did. both were the most replayed in my house !! plus ari hopefully has an oscar to look forward to anyways. besides that, winners for other categories mostly made sense which is unusual for the scammys 😭 also yes THEATER KIDS ARE INDEED BACK, BABES. our time has finally come !!
oh and i would've been happy with chappell too but i just had a gut feeling she was already winning best new artist 🩷 and oh am i glad she did. that speech??? love her.
I saw a bunch of very pathetic people claiming Jay Z bribed the grammys for Beyoncé's win- their evidence? He once said he thought she deserved to win AOTY. That's it. Can't make this shit up.
Raye and Doechii were the best performers of the night, but I will say that none of them were bad. Some were bathroom breaks though. Trevor Noah pissed me off and idk why they keep bringing his ass back to host these award shows.
this is literally the ONLY time Beyoncé wins album of the year and people still can’t find an ounce to support or at least be happy for her.

Checked out Alligator Tears for the first time after watching this review and have had it on near-repeat since, ha! Always appreciate your POV and insight. Shared your line about shipping those tears to Beyonce's house because that's where that Grammy still is, they laughed too, ha!
50:40 I believe you’re referring to the song “Auntie Diaries” on his last album Mr. Morale and The Big Steppers about his trans aunt. That song was an homage to her and a plea from him to the black community to stop being transphobic.
Exactly idk what she’s talking bout anytime someone tries to say sum negative about Kendrick it’s never facts like that song was about his aunty he never said nun bad about trans peopel
Exactly it’s wasn’t disparaging of trans people at all. I think it was supportive & showed Kendrick’s growth while hopefully inspiring others to do the same. He’s great at storytelling in songs
I stand in solidarity with your struggle to get Paramount Plus set up while the Grammys were starting. I dont normally watch awards shows at all and I was swearing under my breath, hoping I didn't miss anything while I tried to get the account set up. I cancelled the trial the next day.
1. Shocked that the Scammys actually did something right for once. Even the old fuddy duddies had to recognize the presence of the pop queens in 2024 2. Glad Beyoncé *FINALLY* won AOTY and Doechii won Best Rap Album! Well deserved wins 3. Even though I personally don't condone most of these streaming services, they can't just combine with each other because they're not all owned by the same companies + they want to "get in on the streaming craze" (🙄) 4. While I personally don't like Ariana (the race fishing she's done is just a no from me), she is incredibly talented. Considering that she's more concerned with Wicked rn (as she should be, tbh), I think the Oscars will feel the wrath more if she's snubbed there since they're even more fuddy duddy than the Scammys. 5. Had to add that Raye deserved better! She has a phenomenal voice
They allowed Post Malone and Jelly Roll to crossover from rap to country, and no one was upset about it. Beyoncé promoted current Black country singers who have now become stars. Yet, country radio seems reluctant to play their songs. I've heard most of Cowboy Carter on r & b radio, that's a shame.
I actually had to check someone on my social media who I went to school with. Her posts about Beyonce were actually outrages. First she started out by saying that Beyonce was not that good and discrediting all of her achievements. I get preference but to say she isn't talented is crazy. Then she went on to say 'leave the ghetto and a$$ shaking out of country music." I was like whoa, I don't know if that's micro aggressive or just blatant racism?? For one, there would be no country music without black folks, so we can do whatever we want, and we can sing it whenever we want.
She said she had been listening to Doechii since she was a sophomore in college and that was 7 years ago and she said she is 24yrs old. So 7years ago she was 17yrs old. Was she a sophomore in college at 17yrs old? If so that’s extremely impressive. Wow.
49:15 No generative AI was used in the making of "Now and Then". The "AI" used was a machine-learning software that separated the vocals and piano from John Lennon's 1977 "Now and Then" demo cassette tape into different tracks, which were then used in the final song. "But to be clear, nothing has been artificially or synthetically created. It’s all real and we all play on it. We cleaned up some existing recordings - a process which has gone on for years." - Paul McCartney about Now And Then, 2023.
I feel like this year was stronger than most but I’ll still never take the Grammys seriously for never giving an award to artists like Katy Perry, Nicki Minaj, etc.
50:25 he didnt. Top dawg did. His resoning is available with little reasearch I will summorise: If you going to censore artist why not all.genre why focus on hip-hop. It was essentially art vs the artist debate but also why does it starts with hip-hop and rap and not country for instance. It was literally just this. Im kinda tired that many people demend answer but never look for it. Vulture articule go look it up Top Dawg Spotify to quote: "How did they just pick those [artists] out? How come they didn’t pick out any others from any other genres or any other different cultures? There [are] so many other artists that have different things going on, and they could’ve picked anybody. But it seems to me that they’re constantly picking on hip-hop culture.”
Waiting for response since you wanted answer. I get being upset or not liking some decision Kendrick makes I don't, but demending answer knowing you didn't do reaerch is crazy.
If Spotify didn't backed up they might have used that to censore a lot of other hip-hop artist especially the small ones because they feel like it may be too controversial and don't even bother doing anything to other genres. I genuinely hope you go check the interview out. If I'm correct (I reaserch this topic a long time ago) Kendrick never said anything about it. Please don't delete my comment or ignore it. I have nothing against you.
The articles made it seems like it was Kendrick supporting R Kelly. Which will always be clickbaity and you cant belive them without context. It wasn't Kendrick it was Top Dawg. It wasn't supoory for R Kelly it was anty new Spotify rule if anything.
Don't beat yourself up. Almost every single American haven't got their ears to the streets when it comes to Raye. But you know which American does know who Raye is? Beyoncé! Raye has written songs for Beyoncé that she's put out and still has a lot of music from Raye she hasn't recorded yet.
Amanda I trieddd, both of Doechii’s shows near me were sold out 😭. The first show was already gone by the time I discovered her mixtape, but then she added a second date and I watched in real time as my dreams were crushed in that damn AXS queue 😫. Also YES TO HELL’S KITCHEN. Cried like a baby when I saw it last summer and the vibes were immaculate in the theater. It’s got a cool use of lighting and stage design that I really liked too
the reason kendrick (or some random on his team) almost took his music off spotify imo was because i don't think removing x's or r.kelly's music was gonna prevent them from committing more horrible things. (they were both free at the time unfortunately) and if spotify was really about getting artists that are like those two off the platform, then david bowie and a lot of rock and metal bands needed to go too. im probably the biggest ronnie radke hater
Well deserved wins and overall this was just an incredible year for music tbh. I usually have like 3-4 albums I really vibe with in a year and this year I loved Brat, Cowboy Carter, Short n Sweet, Eternal Sunshine, Tortured Poets, Alligator Bites, Underdressed at the Symphony, The Story of Us, Deeper Well, Found Heaven, I'm Doing it Again Baby, Don't Forget Me, & Hit Me Hard & Soft.
chappell grew up where i have family! i went to springfield, mo for every family reunion on my dad’s side. i also had winterguard championships down there as well! and i have performed at her high school alma mater. willard is a small suburb of springfield!
50:41 listen I will not tolerate "Auntie Diaries" slander, that is not a "fuck trans people" song, that is a beautiful tribute to his trans family members and overcoming prejudices he was taught (hello "I chose humanity over religion"). "Trans people are people" is a very basic statement of support to make for someone in his position, but honestly in today's climate, even that feels like a radical declaration and it will never fail to amaze me that this song received backlash for both being too woke and not woke enough
i havent watched the video but i just need to say cowboy carter was literally the only choice amongst those nominees for AOTY. it was like putting a michelangelo original up against a punch of high school graduates that are exceptionally gifted at art. like, they’re good, but it’s really no comparison 😭💀
Paramount Plus is actually a part of the reason I didn’t watch the Grammys live this year. I struggled for the past few years to get it set up for the Grammys😭😭
As a mother to two 9 month tuxedo kittens (brother and sister) I never related so much to the opening statement 😂 ALSO u have a zuko?? I have an azula😱🥹

for once, the scammy's ACTUALLY did something right! and i am SO HAPPY Beyonce FINALLY got AOTY, as this was LONG OVERDUE. 😌
Beyonce deserved it for sure, but cowboy Carter didn’t. Just my opinion

Waiting for response since you wanted answer. I get being upset or not liking some decision Kendrick makes I don't, but demending answer knowing you didn't do reaerch is crazy.
If Spotify didn't backed up they might have used that to censore a lot of other hip-hop artist especially the small ones because they feel like it may be too controversial and don't even bother doing anything to other genres. I genuinely hope you go check the interview out. If I'm correct (I reaserch this topic a long time ago) Kendrick never said anything about it. Please don't delete my comment or ignore it. I have nothing against you.
The articles made it seems like it was Kendrick supporting R Kelly. Which will always be clickbaity and you cant belive them without context. It wasn't Kendrick it was Top Dawg. It wasn't supoory for R Kelly it was anty new Spotify rule if anything.
Thank you people always tryna hate on dot for some reason they always gotta throw a shot
absolutely loving natural hair amanda
54:57 “it looked like it stunk up there” 😭😭😭😭😭
tbh this is what got me to actually watch it, love listening to your commentary in between segments!
omg the memories!!! I love thew MTV Girl Code intro!!!!!
mother returns to orbit.
this just in... i truly did not know amanda was not into music like i was I SWORE SHE KNEW MORE THAN ME NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUNDDD
Raye's album is a masterpiece u are gonna love it!!!!
girl you have to listen to Raye's Live at Montreux album it's actually my reason for being, her vocals are insane
6:20 😂- Fun fact: In 2027, the Grammys are going back to ABC. Hulu will be the streaming service for it. 🙌👏
I love your videos so bad, you speak in a perfect flow. like fr just how my brain works. plus your takes are amazing
How did you forget to my mention Taylor introducing beyonce winning best country album
OH IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THISSS
Yayyyyyy. She’s back
Don't beat yourself up. Almost every single American haven't got their ears to the streets when it comes to Raye. But you know which American does know who Raye is? Beyoncé! Raye has written songs for Beyoncé that she's put out and still has a lot of music from Raye she hasn't recorded yet.
Amanda you are so important. Currently looking up Norovirus
Amanda I trieddd, both of Doechii’s shows near me were sold out 😭. The first show was already gone by the time I discovered her mixtape, but then she added a second date and I watched in real time as my dreams were crushed in that damn AXS queue 😫. Also YES TO HELL’S KITCHEN. Cried like a baby when I saw it last summer and the vibes were immaculate in the theater. It’s got a cool use of lighting and stage design that I really liked too
the 20 second silence of pure horror after having the petrifying realization that 2018 was 7 years ago is so real
the reason kendrick (or some random on his team) almost took his music off spotify imo was because i don't think removing x's or r.kelly's music was gonna prevent them from committing more horrible things. (they were both free at the time unfortunately)
and if spotify was really about getting artists that are like those two off the platform, then david bowie and a lot of rock and metal bands needed to go too. im probably the biggest ronnie radke hater
Beyoncé finally being an AOTY winner makes me so happy!
was waiting for this
“cry about it!”
Well deserved wins and overall this was just an incredible year for music tbh. I usually have like 3-4 albums I really vibe with in a year and this year I loved Brat, Cowboy Carter, Short n Sweet, Eternal Sunshine, Tortured Poets, Alligator Bites, Underdressed at the Symphony, The Story of Us, Deeper Well, Found Heaven, I'm Doing it Again Baby, Don't Forget Me, & Hit Me Hard & Soft.
chappell grew up where i have family! i went to springfield, mo for every family reunion on my dad’s side. i also had winterguard championships down there as well! and i have performed at her high school alma mater. willard is a small suburb of springfield!
Omggg you need to tune in into Raye 21st century blues, that literally got me through the darkest part of my life processing my trauma
It feels like its been too long 💖 hope you're doin alr
50:41 listen I will not tolerate "Auntie Diaries" slander, that is not a "fuck trans people" song, that is a beautiful tribute to his trans family members and overcoming prejudices he was taught (hello "I chose humanity over religion"). "Trans people are people" is a very basic statement of support to make for someone in his position, but honestly in today's climate, even that feels like a radical declaration and it will never fail to amaze me that this song received backlash for both being too woke and not woke enough
💯
Please do another Degrassi video!!
i havent watched the video but i just need to say cowboy carter was literally the only choice amongst those nominees for AOTY. it was like putting a michelangelo original up against a punch of high school graduates that are exceptionally gifted at art. like, they’re good, but it’s really no comparison 😭💀
59:27-1:00:05 has literally been my thoughts EXACTLY these past eleven months 😭
Paramount Plus is actually a part of the reason I didn’t watch the Grammys live this year. I struggled for the past few years to get it set up for the Grammys😭😭
i was hoping for a video!
An hour ride home from work is crazy baby I be mad at 25 30 in Atlanta at night
begging u to listen to picture you by chappel i think thats one of the most vocally impressive songs she has
As a mother to two 9 month tuxedo kittens (brother and sister) I never related so much to the opening statement 😂 ALSO u have a zuko?? I have an azula😱🥹
VERY excited to hear your thoughts on RAYE's album. it's one of the best albums of the 2020s to me. 🙂↕️
queen can we PLEASE get a tslocg season 2 video 🙏🙏
