Beyoncé Snubbed at 2024 Country Music Awards: Father Accuses Organizers of Racial Bias
Mathew Knowles, the father of pop sensation Beyoncé, has spoken out after his daughter received no nominations at the 2024 Country Music Awards.
Despite Beyoncé’s remarkable achievements this year, including having the top country song and album, she was overlooked for any awards.
Knowles expressed his frustration, alleging that the Country Music Awards’ voting process is influenced by racial biases rather than merit.
He suggested that the lack of recognition for Beyoncé’s work is indicative of a broader issue within the industry.
“There’s a predominance of white voters in America, and unfortunately, their choices sometimes reflect racial biases rather than focusing purely on talent and accomplishments,” Knowles told TMZ.
Beyoncé’s album, Cowboy Carter, has been both critically acclaimed and commercially successful, making its exclusion from the nominations even more surprising.
This situation has sparked a broader conversation about representation and fairness in award selections.
Nigerian comedian and media personality, Nedu Wazobia, speaks on his exit from Wazobia FM.
It can be noted that the comedian has worked with the organization for over a decade — 13 years.
While speaking, he expressed his disappointment with not having a send-forth after his contribution to the media house. “I worked in Wazobia for 13 years plus and when I resigned, they didn’t even do me a send-forth…”
Nigerian singer Omah Lay reveals that he rejected an offer from Davido to work together again on a track.
The singer shared his reason as he revealed this, stating he wants to pursue his career solo before any big collaboration.
“After we dropped the hit song ‘With You’, Davido called me for a new collaboration but I declined because I have my career to pursue too.”
Nigerian singer Harry song speaks on the rising insecurity in the country and shared that increasing the security income can help improve their performance in securing the country.
The singer took to social media and urged the government “TO MR PRESIDENT. IF YOU REALLY, TRULY WANNA END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA? Start by increasing the salary and allowances of the armed forces. The salary of the army, the navy, the air force, the Nigerian Police Force is too small, too shameful. Increase their salary, this job should be worth dying for. Increase their salaries ooooooo pls and pls.”
