BTS is boycotting the next Grammy Awards over a new “Best Asian Pop Musical Performance” category, calling it unfair and divisive — arguing their music should be judged on merit, not origin. Critics like academic Jay Song call it racist and self-defeating, while Grammys CEO Harvey Mason Jr. defends it as a celebration of Asian pop’s rise. Fans rally behind BTS, pointing to global success stories like Bad Bunny and K-pop’s English-heavy hits, questioning why top artists shouldn’t compete in general categories. The debate sparks a larger question: in a globalized music world, should we still categorize by region or language?
