I believe that Tidal should start their own award show. I saw what happened on the Grammys and I'm tired to see Black artists not getting the awards that they deserve. We created majority of music genres but still not get enough recognition. We deserve an award show that is Black-owned and support Black artists and other artists of colors. I would love to see Jay Z create an award show.

I'm tired of regretfully watching the Grammys reward white-mediocrity instead of acknowledging all that PoC have contributed and are still contributing to the music industry and music as an art form.
After beyonce was snubbed for album of the year at the 2017 Grammys and after doing some research as to why she was snubbed. I am came to the realization that black artist are not being properly recognized and awarded for their musical achievements even know we as black people started all they music genres and continue you to set trends that's the mainstream (white) media uses and exploits without even giving proper recognition to ones that start said trends.
YES. Keep the money in our community and stop begging the grammys for respect they clearly dont want to give us.
I believe it is time to recognize and appreciate many talented artist of our time.
Duck the racist grammys. Black artists need to be acknowledged/rewarded and not punished for their talents!!!
Actually artists should judge music
I love Beyoncé

The grammys are a joke honestly. Jay z needs to step up and make this happen because we are tired of seeing our favorite artists get pushed aside for years.
