Published: Feb. 15, 2017, 4:37 a.m.

b"In the Academy's 59 year history, why have only 9 black musicians taken home the Grammys most prestigious honor? Should top musicians boycott the show? What can the Grammys do better? In this episode--our own recap of Sunday's show--we discuss all of this and more, resulting in one of our longest recordings to date. We also touch on the performances, including Adele's mishaps, Bruno's tribute to Prince (and continued appropriation of black culture), Tribe's revolutionary appearance, and Beyonc\\xe9's high art production that left us all on edge.\\n\\nFollow us on social media : @PMTAPODCAST (Soundcloud, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr) Intro/Outro Credit: Shining - ft.
