The grammy academy clearly thought Adele had the better album.

Why does everyone think Beyoncé deserves to win everything?

1. I'm confused

Why must it stop?

[yallerdawg]

2. "Lemonade" was the much better album.

Even Adele said so!

[alarimer]

3. Musical taste is highly subjective. There is no "better" really.

It's just marketing.

4. Why does this bother you?

Adele does not agree with you.

Your Recd your own OP?

5. We need to focus on more important things.

[UncleTomsEvilBrother]

7. Yes...

...like Bey's and Adele's dresses. OMG!!!! Did you see them?! Divine!

8. I like Beyonce and Jay Z because they were with her.

13. Thank you, Sir.

I am in no mood for a DU Beyonce flame war.

That's SO 2013.

6. But Beyonc has such a Nice Ass to Kiss

Seriously though, the Academy has been a joke for so long, I think people are getting use to not seeing the best Win ... and any Color.

9. Lemonade was the better album. And.. it's ridiculous Beyonce has yet to win Album of the Year.

and I ain't even a Beyonce stan.

10. The various academies like products that make a lot of money

I don't think one should take any of the statuettes seriously as a judge of artistry

[crappyjazz]

11. Love Adele but

Beyonce's album should have won hands down. Adele's latest is nice enough but nothing that should win album of the year.

Interested to know how folks with this opinion are "ass kissers".

12. Reminds Me of When Jethro Tull Won

for best heavy metal album over Metallica

Lemonade is the better album, song, etc....

[Raine1967]

14. The DU Beyonce war is so 2013. n/t

[wyldwolf]

15. oh come on, can we have a little longer?

I do love a good fight among culture snobs.

16. Why is this in General Discussion.

Who cares? Have you not noticed that we're in the middle of a major political crisis?

There is an Entertainment Group on DU. This belongs there.

17. It's baffling to me too

Leaving aside the whole "Grammy awards are frequently out-of-touch" issue, Beyonce has won more Grammys than any other woman ever other than Allison Krauss. So all the "why can't Beyonce catch a break" chatter whenever she doesn't win an award just seems hyperbolic and ridiculous to me. At least the Kanye-Beck thing from a couple years back was an entertaining example of Kanye being Kanye, and Beck being Beck.
