Awards shows are generally overblown affairs, which is part of why we ask a seasoned cultural critic like Ashley Spurgeon to take a poke at the big ones when they come around. (Sadly, Spurgeon wasn’t available this weekend, so no Oh Balls™ recap this time.) But the messages they send get to a huge audience regardless. It’s good to see a focus on the work of women, Black people and other people of color among the slate of nominees and winners just a couple of years after The Recording Academy’s then-leader responded to criticism by telling women they needed to “step up” if they wanted to be recognized.
