On Monday, as the Recording Academy began its final round of voting for the 2022 Grammy winners, people learned Drake was off the ballot.\n\nDrake and his management had asked the Academy to pull his two nominations.\n\nHe still hasn\u2019t offered an explanation, but this is the latest in a series of tensions between Drake and the Grammys: he\u2019s questioned their relevance in his lyrics, defended The Weeknd after a snub and even criticized the Academy while accepting a trophy.\n\nToday on Front Burner, music journalist and host of Marvin\u2019s Room A. Harmony joins us to explain why so many Hip Hop artists are expressing frustration with the Grammys, and whether a show with limited recognition of Black talent can remain relevant.
