The 30-year-old singer was snubbed when his album “After Hours” had two number one hits on the charts, “Heartless” and “Blinding Lights”.
The Recording Academy’s interim chief Harvey Mason Jr. addressed The Weeknd being snubbed, telling Variety:
“Y’know, it really just comes down to the voting body that decides. We have eight nomination slots to fill in, five in others, and the voters vote for their favorites. It’s really interesting, though.”
Wait, there’s more.
The Weeknd was given an ultimatum according to TMZ, having to choose to between performing at the Grammys or the Superbowl and he choose to perform at the 2021 Super Bowl Halftime show.
The Grammys may have snubbed the singer because he choose not to perform for them.. Wow..
