BTS Boycotts 2027 Grammys Over New Asian Pop Category
TL;DR Summary
BTS said they will not enter the 2027 Grammys in protest of the Recording Academy's new best Asian pop music performance category, arguing music should be heard beyond regional or language divides. The move underscores concerns that a regional prize could sideline Asian pop from top awards, even as Grammys add other new categories; the ceremony is February 7 in Los Angeles.
