American singer and songwriter Weeknd opened up on the recent changes in the voting rules announced by the Recording Academy on Friday. The pop star doubled down on his decision to boycott the Grammys after being shut out of all nominations for the 2021 awards. According to Fox News, the `After Hours` performer had one of the biggest albums of the year, which netted The Weeknd the most-streamed single of the year with `Blinding Lights` and a Super Bowl LIV Halftime performance to boot.
So, he and his team were none too thrilled with their current standing in the eyes of the Recording Academy despite the organization eliminating "secret" nomination-review committees that decide who gets a shot at a trophy.
