Zayn Malik says ‘f**k the Grammys and everyone associated’ after he claims show snubbed his music and takes bribes
ZAYN Malik let the world learn how he truly feels about the Grammys as he slammed them and claimed the show snubbed his music and takes bribes.
The singer did not receive a single nomination for the 2021 Grammys.
The 28-year-old took to Twitter today and was more than happy to be very honest about his thoughts as he tweeted: “F**k the grammys and everyone associated.
“Unless you shake hands and send gifts, there’s no nomination considerations. Next year I’ll send you a basket of confectionary.”
People took to the comments section with different opinions on Zayn as some praised him while others quite the opposite.
One person wrote: “the grammys are literally so gross they snub all the amazing artists who deserve to win awards it’s so obvious how biased they are.”
However, another chimed in with: “Stop crying, love, and better do a change in your music, every single song sounds the same.
“I know you can do better, just remake yourself. Sometimes doing so is something good.”
Zayn hasn’t gone empty handed on the nominations front in the past, though, as he and Taylor Swift‘s collaboration I Don’t Wanna Live Forever was nominated, but did not win.
As a member of the massively popular boy band One Direction, however, he did not see any nominations thrown his way.
Another former member of One Direction, Harry Styles, came out a tad better as he is nominated in three categories, including best pop vocal album for his work on Fine Line, which featured hits like Watermelon Sugar and Adore You.
While Zayn – who welcomed his first child with Gigi Hadid last year – released his third album this January, he unfortunately missed the eligibility period for this year’s show which began on September 1, 2019, and ended on August 31, 2020.
Zayn isn’t the only artist who has spoken out against the Grammys, as back in November The Weeknd displayed his rage.
He wrote at the time: “The Grammys remain corrupt. You owe me, my fans and the industry transparency…”
The 31-year-old’s latest album After Hours featuring the smash hit Blinding Lights has received rave reviews but was also not recognized by the Grammys.
While Justin Bieber did receive a nomination this year for Pop rather than R&B album, he made sure to also express how he felt about the situation.

He wrote on Instagram: “I set out to make an R&B album. Changes was, and is, a R&B album. It is not being acknowledged as an R&B album which is very strange to me.
Justin added: “Please don’t mistake this as me being ungrateful, these are just my thoughts take em or leave em.
“Thank you to the people who fought for me to even have any noms.”
