1. I don’t think the Grammy voters care about anything you just mentioned. Bts are still a boyband and the Grammy’s has never looked at boybands favorably. Even with their Butter performance that nobody outside of stan Twitter gave a darn about. 2. One Direction at their peak were just as popular if not more so than bts and they were never recognized at the Grammys. They sold out stadiums left and right too and sold millions of records. However, it wasn’t until Harry Styles went solo that he got any recognition. Now he’s nominated all over the general field and is a Grammy winner. He’ll probably be a multiple Grammy winner after Sunday. 3. I think the voters are more inclined to recognize ABBA who are Pop legends than bts. I don’t think the industry loves them or regards them in the way that you think they do. I think they see them as more of a gimmick with crazy fans rather than actual artists. 4. Like I said, I’m going to wait and see if the category will be announced on live TV. I think that will be a big indicator of who has won the award.
I truly believe live announcement or pre-show announcement isn’t a indicator at the grammys. We’ve seen this over and over again every year, I always remember of that year they presented Best Comedy Album live and since Ellen was there everybody thought she had won it just for Dave Chappelle to win it while not attending.
