The top four categories will no longer be voted on by the Recording Academy’s controversial nomination review committees, but that doesn’t mean the artist, who was memorably snubbed by the music awards last year, is ready to make amends.
If the Recording Academy was attempting to appease naysayers by axing the anonymous review committees who, for years, have determined the nominees for major categories at the Grammys, it failed to win over one of its biggest critics: the Weeknd, who affirmed his boycott of the awards show on Monday.
The rule change was announced Friday, with the academy stating that the categories previously decided by the nominations review committees consisting of 15-30 highly skilled music peers who represented and voted within their genre communities will now be determined on votes made by the academy’s 11,000-plus members.

The Weeknd said he still plans to boycott the Grammys after the Recording Academy announced it would get rid of the “secret committees” that, for years, finalized the nominees for major categories.
The Recording Academy announced its rule change Friday, April 30th, saying the categories decided by the “Nominations Review Committees” (“15-30 highly skilled music peers who represented and voted within their genre communities”) would now be “determined by a majority, peer-to-peer vote of voting members of the Recording Academy.”
