At Grammys 2024, Jay-Z brought daughter Blue Ivy onstage with him and proceeded to slam the institution for years of snubbing the artistry of his wife Beyoncé.
Standing beside daughter Blue Ivy, Jay-Z addressed Grammy voters and executives with a callout that's been a long time coming: It makes absolutely no sense that Beyoncé is the most nominated and most awarded Grammys artist and yet she's never won its highest, most comprehensive honor, Album of the Year. Unless, of course, you're an institution known for its implicit and systemic biases against non-white musicians.
There's an inconsistency in Grammys voting, and these inconsistencies rarely seem to go in Beyoncé's — or any other Black woman's — favor. Some years they acknowledge fame above all; sometimes they take in overall cultural impact; sometimes they go for musicianship and attention to detail. Each of Beyoncé's projects could align with one of those movements and yet… and yet.
