Beyoncé has lost the album of the year Grammy four times, for projects like ‘Lemonade’ and ‘Renaissance.’ But that doesn’t matter because Queen Bey is above the Grammys, and she doesn’t need the awards show’s validation to prove she’s a game-changing icon.
Let me make this super-duper uber-clear: It does not matter that Beyoncé lost the album of the year Grammy in 2023, as well as in 2017, 2015 and 2010.
Of course Renaissance was the best album of the last year and most critics deemed it such. But when it comes to the Grammys, and the majority of its voters, artists like Beyoncé won’t ever win and that’s fine.
