Wow this lineup is the EPITOME of BASIC. ??? Not Even just from a performance point of view – but from a music right now point of view.
Dhjjfhjkfgfg no nonoma for beyonce and her spouse, I hope she learnt nobody cared or cares for her husband.
The ratings will be LOW no Beyoncé No Rihanna No Nicki Minaj I’m sure Drake isn’t going who’s going to watch lol
Lol girl stfu, Nicki doesn’t bring in viewers with her boring performances! Chile I needed that laugh! ???
This might be their lowest rated awards show yet. No Bey, No Nicki, No Drake, No Rihanna… yikes
How the f@ck u snub Cardi for artist of the year?
The 3 artists mentioned in the headline are so basic that it says it all about the current state of awards like AMAs and the popular music industry in general for that matter. So basic and uneventful.
Really that’s it? Drake obviously going to clean house.
