The Grammys Still Don't Know What to Do With Global Music
Briefly

"Thank you to the Recording Academy for this category. It's so important," said Tyla in her acceptance speech, marking a significant moment for global music recognition.
Despite the introduction of Best African Music Performance, Tyla's album struggles for recognition at the 2025 Grammys, illustrating the gap in honoring non-western music.
Tyla's music, infused with amapiano beats and elements of R&B, house, and hip-hop, challenges traditional category designations at the Grammys, complicating her placement in the awards.
The shift from Best R&B Album to Best Pop Vocal Album raises questions about genre classifications and the Grammys' ability to adapt to diverse musical styles.
