LOS ANGELES, Jan 5 ― It's the most anticipated event for all music professionals. The 64th Grammy Awards ceremony is scheduled to take place on January 31 in Los Angeles. But the pandemic is already casting a shadow on the prospect of the event being unperturbed by the health situation.
To cancel or not to cancel: that is the question the music world is asking about the 64th Grammy Awards. The Recording Academy will most likely reschedule the event due to the spread of the Omicron variant, according to Billboard. This would be the second year in a row that the awards show would not be held in January due to the health crisis.
The 63rd Grammy Awards were held March 14, following an explosion of Covid-19 cases in Los Angeles during the first months of 2021. The ceremony was not held at the Staples Centre , as originally planned, but at the Los Angeles Convention Centre. A change that allowed for a reduced number of spectators attending the event.While the Recording Academy has yet to confirm the postponement of the 64th Grammy Awards, the 2022 edition of the awards show will integrate changes.
However, this process has been heavily criticised by artists like Jay-Z, Drake, Kanye West, Zayn Malik and Frank Ocean. The Weeknd was particularly vocal in his discontent for the organisation in November 2020, after learning that he was not nominated for a Grammy despite the commercial success of his fourth album,. “The Grammys remain corrupt. You owe me, my fans and the industry transparency...” he posted on Twitter.
