Beyonce Bested for Album of the Year GRAMMY Again / Beyhive Erupts

Published: Sunday 5th Feb 2023 by Rashad

As if entering the the 2023 ceremony Sunday night (February 5) as the night’s most-nominated act wasn’t enough to celebrate (9 nominations), the ‘Break My Soul’ singer’s multiple wins led her right into history books for breaking the record for most overall wins before the show was even halfway done.

Little did fans know, that history-making feat is where Beyonce‘s GRAMMY triumphs halted.

Going to GRAMMY battle against ABBA‘s ‘Voyage,’ Lizzo‘s ‘Special,’ Kendrick Lamar‘s ‘Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers,’ and others, Bey’s ‘Renaissance‘ lost the category to Harry Styles’ ‘Harry House’ – sustaining her losing streak in the process.

First nominated for the trophy in 2010 thanks to her chart-topping tertiary release, ‘I Am Sasha Fierce,’ she garnered two other nominations for ‘Beyonce’ (2015) and ‘Lemonade’ (2017) before landing a ‘Renaissance’ mention in 2023.

She now sits 0-4 in the category.

Needless to say, her beloved fan group – affectionately called the #Beyhive – didn’t take the news lightly.

    I knew she wasn’t gonna win when they televised the Best Dance Album category. It was either gonna be Harry or ABBA. I just knew it. Still Beyonce deserves congrats for being the most decorated AOTY or not !!

  2. eddie93 February 5, 2023

    The Grammy voters will choose mediocre white artists for AOTY over black talent TIME AND TIME AGAIN. i wasn’t at all surprised.

  3. Tino February 5, 2023

    Didn’t deserve it anyway, just like most of the 32 Grammys she now have. I guess you can only buy a certain number of Grammy awards but you can’t pick and choose which ones.

    At some point God is gonna humble her to make her realize that all the fake accolades and fame she’s bought and stole doesn’t make her any better than the homeless people on the streets.

        You can clap all you want but this also applies to H******** B, boo.

    So what!!! She already has 32 Grammys! Our favorite legends of yesteryear hardly have any!!! I just can’t feel sorry for her!! When it comes to Beyonce sure she’s a great singer and excellent performer but when it comes to music she always falls short! She is not God! Her fans bash other artists without even listening to those artists music! Harry had a great album and year.

    • Lanafan1 February 6, 2023

      Harry’s album was good. But it was lackluster in comparison to both Beyonce’s and Adele’s albums. Their albums showed growth, his was more of the same lukewarm bubblegum pop. His previous album was far better.

  5. Slick February 6, 2023

    32 Grammys that were paid for. Her music is TRASH and so are her SATANIC WAYS.

  6. Horus February 6, 2023

    U can tell she really wants album of the year too. Enjoy your other 30 Grammies life goes on.

  7. Devil worshipper February 6, 2023

    Guess money and Satan can’t buy you everything.

  8. Anne February 6, 2023

    I’m sure she was disappointed but she’s fine. To me it was obvious that she knew ahead of time that she would not win in AOTY, that’s why they couldn’t negotiate a performance, she showed up late, and the dance album category was being televised. But she seemed very grateful and happy about her wins and about making history.

  9. RatedXxx February 6, 2023

    That album was her worse album to date….her music sucks….she’s supposed to be the greatest and yet no diamond album…heck even Britney spears has at least two diamond albums…

    It’s no secret she buys all her awards….and she’s the one who release news good or bad to get attention…

    Until she humbles herself she’s never going to be the greatest….

    • Lanafan1 February 6, 2023

      The lies you tell 🤣

  10. Yo February 6, 2023

    The album only has 2 moderate hits anyways. It shouldn’t have and didn’t win.

  11. KeyLoLo February 6, 2023

    It’s expected of her to win everything 💁 it’s not surprising to me..not sure why some people still get mad at this point..she lose one ok..but she will always gain another 💁

  12. #TheTruth February 6, 2023

    I don’t get the hype with this album.
    Sure in terms of background vocals and harmonies, there’s always nice arrangements. But the main layer of vocals is flat and weak.
    The lyrical content is redondant and arrogant (I’m the sh!t I’m the best blablabla).
    And as time goes by, she’s more and more disconnected from her audience. She dropped the album and ignored her fans til this date. You don’t even give them a live performance after giving you a #1 album and single.
    She named her uncle during her speech and gave a shout out to the q**** community but her first performance in 5 years is in a nation where you’re put in jail for your sexuality. She’s hypocrite.
    I used to root for her so much, from the early days where she wasn’t so robotic and fake.

    • DaAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaa February 6, 2023

      This!!!!

    I remember when BECK won back in 2015 over self titled. I didn’t get mad like KANYE, instead I immediately went to go LISTEN to beck’s Album… suffice to say I was FURIOUS 😠 that album was 😴 💤 🛏 😪

    I Will listen to Harry style album later to see if it was better than Renaissance despite his VOICE being ordinary which should automatically give artist like him and Taylor Swift a DISADVANTAGE in the category but maybe being WHITE in a white Academy oversees all Advantages.

    To be fair, beyonce ALWAYS ruins her Great album with that one GHETTO Anthem. First it was VIDEO PHONE, then Flawless, then Sorry, now it’s THIQUE. Still doubt Harry styles is better but I will listen 🎶

    • HeauxTales February 6, 2023

      BEYONCE has 32 Grammys. That’s more than Whitney, Mariah, Barbara, Aretha, Gladys, Anita, Toni, Mary, Janet, Alicia and other legends! They even televised the Best Dance Album category just for Beyonce! She’s worshipped like a God however her peers clearly don’t see it for her in the AOTY category. Doesn’t matter at this point when she has more Grammys that anyone!!!

      • Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

        It DOES matter. She only has ONE major category win and that ROY for single Ladies… the rest are EASY categories atleast comparison with highly limited competition… I mean look what CUFF IT was up against… pure MEDIOCRITY.

        AOY is the most critical and crucial category and it should go to whomever had THE BEST ALBUM… It wasn’t Beck and I have to still listen to Harry which will consist of me getting past his MEDIOCRE VOICE and listening only to the music which I highly doubt was curated better than Renaissance.

        If Beyonce can’t win AOY it’s like LeBron James never winning the superbowl (if it was basketball oriented) after multiple years of attepts… it invalidates her creditability as a GRAMMY LEGEND.

      • HeauxTales February 6, 2023

        No it doesn’t!!! The average person knows Beyonce is the most awarded artist in Grammy history. They don’t care about the categories. Only y’all stans do! Industry insiders still worship her like she’s some sort of deity. The entire ceremony was lowkey centered around Beyonce!!!

      • Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

        Also beyonce is UNDERRATED. Nowhere near Worshiped. Xxxtentiion is more worshiped than her… his ? Album is the most streamed album of all time. MJ is a much better example of WORSHIPED. He was 2x more worshiped in London alone than Queen Elizabeth was. 😆

      • Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

        If beyonce was worshiped she would atleast have a DIAMOND 💎 album AND AOY 🏆 by now… maybe even an Oscar & Emmy too. Also would be a billionaire for sure like Rihanna. 👍🏼

      • Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

        Yet you were just bragging about her having a Diamond album in Brazil 💀😂

  14. Celine Dion February 6, 2023

    Majority of AOTY winners have one thing in common:
    THEY WRITE THEIR OWN MUSIC
    Not just bully their way into writing credits or add a word here and there but pushes their pen!!
    Beyonce has a reputation in the industry concerning songwriting, and it’s not a good one! Writers and producers will still work with her because cmon it’s Beyonce. Buttt she is not the songwriter she has claimed to be so many times.
    Renaissance has hundreds of samples, interpolations & writers. I knew for a fact that she wasn’t getting AOTY. Not even a sympathy trophy like others have gotten….

  15. Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

    She’s as desperate for that AOTY win as Jay-Z is for Becky with the good hair.

  16. Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

    And Cardi showed up looking like a blue toilet brush.

    • Dc February 6, 2023

        Her big, nasty, fake, plastic, zoo-animal “ass” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

      • Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

        Where’s that second album boo? She just a socialite now? She is nothing but a tacky, cheaper version of Kim K.

  17. Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

    @HeauxTales

    There’s a difference between being MUSIC ROYALTY (Like Whitney, Prince, Madonna, Celine Dion, & Beyonce) and being WORSHIPED (like Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, & MJ was).

  18. Keith February 6, 2023

    Renaissance doesn’t deserve AOTY and neither did Lemonade or Self-Titled. That being said, Beyonce has made history as the most awarded artist in Grammy history. She’s wealthy, healthy, and has millions of people queued up as I write this to pay for Sir and Rumi’s college tuition. As someone else mentioned, there are many more legendary artists that don’t have even ONE award. She will be fine and the BeyHive will get over themselves…

  19. Truman February 6, 2023

    Beyonce is a great entertainer. Her music sucks. She’s too old to be singing the crap she does.

  20. Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

    OMG IM IN TEARS 😢 😭 🤧

    Listening to Harry Styles.. 🎶

    • Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

      Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaas AOTY hunnie!

      • Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

        It’s not bad, definitely 20/20 experience Justin Timberlake type album. Nothing ground breaking but definitely worthy of its NOMINATION. It doesn’t have songs that OTHER artists can’t pull off tho which is what separates it from Renaissance.

        Name ONE of beys peers that could have pulled off RENAISSANCE? That’s what separates bey, she Always makes music that her PEERS can’t

        Name ONE of beys peers that could have sung CRAZY IN LOVE. (one person mentioned JOJO as the best option 😆)

      • Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

        If her peers would have made Renaissance, it would have been critically panned. That’s what separates Bey, she always “makes” (steals) music that anyone else would flop, get dragged and fade into obscurity for.

      • Ha ha February 6, 2023

        @Shayla so true The industry kisses beyonces ass so bad. Until it’s time for AOTY🤣

  21. Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

    Diabetes VeryBOTHERED said countless times that BMS and Renaissance were underwhelming and that she did not enjoy them…

    • Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

      Renaissance is EPIC, never said I didn’t like it. and BMS grew on me, I thought on 1st listen that it sounds like a UNREALESED Track that should have syayed that way but now it sounds like MAGIC to me now.

      It took me a while to get into the beat, I thought it was too simple and weak at first but now I hear that it’s actually an incredible instrumental.

      Easy on me is another example of a track that had to grow but actually I still don’t like easy on me. BMS has fully grown on me.

      • Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

        BMS sounds like a RuPaul reject. Also, she copied Kesha who first used Big Freedia on her single Raising Hell in 2019. No original ideas whatsoever.

  22. Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

    DOTD (Disaster of the Decade) easily goes to… H******** B’s Invasion of P**** – a rapping chipmunk on steroids with a speech impediment invading your ears with raps about her stank p****.

    • Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

      Easy on me and BMS are similar tracks for both artist… both are huge RISK (as lead singles) that ended up becoming #1 Hits worldwide. ..

      (Both of these songs easily could have been MASSIVE FLOPS.) I applaud both artist for taking that risk as their lead single 👏🏾

  23. Pat February 6, 2023

    Boo f****** hoo. This chick has more Grammys than Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey. Why should I care if she didn’t win album of the year.

  24. H** on the Rag 🩸 February 6, 2023

    This will totally take Beyoncé’s career out of the dumpster!

    [UPDATE: No, it won’t.]

    • Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

      Hating on Music Royalty will totally take yur existence out of the dumpster!

      [UPDATE: No, it won’t.]

      • H** on the Rag 🩸 February 6, 2023

        Haling Beyoncé as Music Royalty will totally get her AOTY!

        💀💀💀💀💀💀

  25. Ha ha February 6, 2023

    Beyonce is so focused on making every release an event that she forgets to make good music. 💀

    • Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

      And she is also no Madonna who REALLY DID make every new album release an EVENT for most of her career.

    • Lanafan1 February 6, 2023

      That was true up until Renaissance!

  26. Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

    @SHYla Q****

    I suggest you go listen 🎶 to the BMS instrumental. If you carclltch the Grove of that song you will realize that it’s either just as or almost as EPIC as Whitney’s Iconic version of the NATIONAL ANTHEM.

    Seriously I suggest you make one final attempt in getting into BMS by listening to just the instrumental and then the original right afterwards. It’s truly MAGICAL

    It’s not a song that you can get into by only listening to it twice. BMS isn’t thriller… it takes MULTIPLE listens to get into the groove of the track. Not all songs have to be immediate to be great songs.

    • Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

      So, play it enough times to cement it into your brain to trick yourself into thinking that you like it. That’s the oldest trick in the book done by most radio stations which is why mediocrity is usually at the top of the charts. BMS being the prime example.

  27. Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

    @SHYla Q****

    Try listening to the beat (BMS) And imagine some dark figure stomping as that walk/strut towards you. That’s what I always invision when I listen to just the beat alone.

    I bet the video will be epic, that’s the visual I want to see the most out of all the Renaissance tracks. That and HEATED.

    • Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

      “Try listening to the beat (BMS) And imagine some dark figure stomping as that walk/strut towards you.”

      Um… 🤔 I don’t really want to imagine I’m about to be r**** and murdered by some “dark figure,” so I’m good… Thanks for the great tip on how to force yourself into liking Beyoncé’s music though!

      • Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

        😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣

  28. Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

    So, guys, listen up! If you don’t like Beyoncé’s music, it’s simply because you haven’t taken all of the necessary steps, according to our Einstein of how to like Beyoncé’s music, Diabetes VeryBOTHERED

    6. You should now like your first Beyoncé song, so follow the first 5 steps for each following song

    • H** on the Rag 🩸 February 6, 2023

      This will totally force you into liking Beyoncé’s trash music!

  29. Neutral February 6, 2023

    only phags & hood rats like beyonce. her album was trash. what straight person or classy person could resonate with it? no one. beyonce single handedly made grammies absolutely meaningless

    • Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

      Tyrese, Stephen A, Charlemagne tha God even bought Solange 2nd album. He said his name is Knowles Carter. He is a fan also. Trevor, the grammy host also said he loves the Queen. Only jealous ignorant LUCIFERIANS like yourself refuse to worship THA QUEEN 🙌 👑 . I’m a STRAIGHT person also and I too Worship the Queen Of Christ.

      • Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

        It’s gay music. And you say you dislike gays so stop with the hypocrisy.

    • Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

      There is an EXCEPTION to every RULE.. Plenty of Phags hate beyonce. And plenty of STRAIGHT ppl dont. Yur just a UGLY JEALOUS FAT WHALE, & MAD because NOBODY will ever Worship YOU…

      nor yur Favs 😆 🤣

    • Diabetes UNBOTHERED February 6, 2023

      @ SHY Q****

      I have every RIGHT to hate GAY PPL. They really shouldn’t exist and those phags DID NOT create House Music.

      • Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

        The gays, mainly white gays, are the majority buyers and streamers of your so-called “Queen.” So they should be the Queens you worship as without them, she would be nothing.

  30. Monica Stan February 6, 2023

    I don’t get the uproar when Bey already won 30 Grammys. Who else done that nobody. Everyone kisses her ass even in their own acceptance speech. 😭😭😭

    • Bey greater than ur faves February 6, 2023

      Shut up. Monica’s ONLY Grammy was won off the strength of Brandy Norwood. They paid her dust since then 🌬️ #90sFLOP

      • Monica Stan February 6, 2023

        BĮTČH Monica ain’t never been no Hollywood hooeeee begging for the white mans accolades. Her resume speaks for itself. She is one of Beyonces FAVS by the way. Don’t get it twisted trick.

      • Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 6, 2023

        Beyoncé herself knows better than to NOT bow down to the ones that came before her, INCLUDING Monica. Monica helped PAVE THE WAY for your fraud fave.

      • BEY GREATER THEN UF FLOP FAVES February 6, 2023

        LMAO BFFR MONICA AINT DONE S*** NOTEWORTHY BUT THE BOY IS MINE SHE AINT PAVED S*** BUT COMMISSARY FOR C MURDER

    The greed.

  32. eric February 6, 2023

    It’s been said before, but I feel like the hype is always bigger than the quality of her work.

    • Phaedra February 6, 2023

      THISSS!!!! I feel like her music is always missing something.

  33. CharlIzAngel February 6, 2023

    Harry’s right that all the album’s including Beyz was brilliant BUT she’s still outmatched up against them. On top of that her promo formula of being this ‘exclusive-premium’ artist is getting tiring now. Her MVs were short and simple plus she didn’t even go on tour or did much TV promo compared to Harry and Lizzo. PS: even Lizzo is a black artist more deserving of an AOTY than her.
