Bruno removes SILK FromGrammy Consideration

Well it has happened again, the whole we are great, but dont put us in award shows this and that we dont want to compete we all are ONE. Well as much as I respect this, I will challenge this 100%. IF YOU ALL ARE IN THIS together give your royalties to those playing gigs in clubs getting pennies on a stream, walk your talk. I get you are "woke" to awards and we "all are winners" well give me some of that check buddy cause most are playing clubs while you TALK and dont walk. Till I see an artist who REMOVES themselves from this consideration and puts their check out there for those struggling playing clubs and bars LIKE THEY never did, sorry Bruno and the Weekend y'all never played a bar in your life.

I agree its the hollowest of gestures.

Frank Ocean did the same thing in protest for something or other.

They better enjoy these award shows while they can because from the looks of it they'll be gone soon.

The only good awards shows on now are the BET and Soul Train Awards

Bruno Mars and Anderson Paak both paid their dues. I think this is a good look, assuming they would sweep the categories again.
