ADVERTISEMENTFor the first time since 1999, not a single white man was nominated for the 60th annual Grammy Awards’ Album of the Year category. Additionally, all five tracks nominated for 2017′s Record of the Year came from artists of color. Last year, the Grammys snubbed two artists of color ― Beyonce and Kendrick Lamar ― for Album of the Year, instead favoring white female artists Adele and Taylor Swift. That’s how I feel.”If Beyonce's Lemonade album of the year Grammy snub was their attempt to inspire another Lemonade, boy bye — Aparna Nancherla (@aparnapkin) February 13, 2017@kendricklamar was snubbed. At the Academy Awards in both 2015 and 2016, all 20 actors nominated in the lead and supporting acting categories were white (which, as USA Today noted, hadn’t happened since 1998).
