Just letting you guys know to expect the inaugural Gold Derby Award winners at 1:00 ET; 10:00 PT on Friday, March 5! I’m hoping to expand them next year with more genre categories, but I’m really proud of this first go and how much engagement there was for them.

Watch the live announcement here:

I would like to thank you & Boz for starting this. It was incredible for us to finally have a voice on users favorite albums.

I won’t spoil it either, but I will say the AOTY nominees were FAR better than the ones from the Grammys: After Hours, Fetch the Bolt Cutters, Sawayama, and Punisher? WOW!

Overall I found the process good for our first year. I did prefer the idea of a Nominations Review Committee that some user proposed, to avoid stuff like Lady Gaga getting two nods, songs like Stupid Love in SOTY (…), and songs like Cardigan in ROTY, but the winners were mostly deserved. I wonder how similar they’ll be to the Grammys.

I think we should have album genre categories for next year!

i feel like criticizing the winners like the BNA winner or Latin Artist winner in general is just not cool. I think the fact that 10,000 voters came out to vote is astonishing. If you want to avoid outside forces like fandoms to stop the voting process, then program a code that weighs the votes of voters (1 vote for someone that’s in the All-Star 24  or a frequent poster should be more than someone who has barely created another account to continuously keep voting). These are just thoughts and ideas for a solution,  y’all figure it out haha. Thanks guys!
