Like, there's a HUGE line between not being recognized and just being ENTITLED. It's becoming really embarrassing... everything feels  disingenuous and like a sympathy win for us now.

:omf:
no he didn't. He actually was talking about Will Smith winning in 1989 but boycotting because they didn't televise the award, then himself winning over DMX. It was all about ppl who won but never got the big awards and televised speeches like Taylor and Adele
Basically there is still a glass ceiling that Black artists are under in this ceremony

Yes he did. He literally said DMX dropped 2 albums in 1998 and wanst nominated at ALL, that's why he boycotted.

And yes, there may be a glass ceiling for Blacks still, but Beyoncé damn sure isn't a representation of that ceiling. :dead:

she clearly is because all of her awards except are in the R&B category. That's the perfect example

That's simply not true.... She's won Song of the Year, Best Music Video, Best Dance Album, Best Collaboration, etc....

She's the most awarded of all time... She literally burst through the ceiling.

this is the only one that is in the top 4 general categories
and that was 15 years ago

Billie Eyelash won Song, Record AND Album of the Year at the same time one year

The Only BLACK Kalmyks

Project started: 2014 Wrapped up: 2024

Significant Discovery: First known Black American family of Kalmyk descent

Takeaways: Be prepared to pivot, even when you think you're on the right track. Be OK with being wrong so you can get things right.

Kalmyks are tribal Mongolic people who settled in Russia. It's estimated that only 300,000 Kalmyk descendants exist worldwide - with only 3,000 in America.
