Beyoncé's Grammy Snub Sparks Debate on Industry Bias

Jay-Z's Grammy speech highlights the systemic overlook of Black artists, igniting discussions on racial bias in music awards.

Jay-Z criticizes the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences for overlooking Beyoncé and other Black artists, emphasizing the systemic bias in music awards.
Despite Beyoncé's significant achievements and influence in music, she has never won album of the year, reflecting a broader issue of racial bias in the industry.
No Black woman has won album of the year since Lauryn Hill in 1999, underscoring the long-standing overlook of Black female artists.
Other Black celebrities have also spoken out about their mistreatment in the entertainment industry, highlighting a pattern of racial and gender bias.
The categorization of music at awards shows is criticized for perpetuating stereotypes and limiting the recognition of genre-bending Black artists.
