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.

Bright Okpocha, widely known as Basketmouth, has criticized Nigerian filmmakers for failing to highlight the country’s vibrant culture in their movies.

The renowned comedian and filmmaker voiced his disappointment during an interview with Hip TV, where he discussed the missed opportunities by some filmmakers to positively represent Nigeria’s heritage, particularly in epic movies.

Basketmouth lamented that many of the recent epic films lack authenticity and fail to reflect the depth of Nigerian culture.

Instead, he argued, they often come across as overly theatrical or staged.

Sharing his thoughts, he said, “We had a golden opportunity to showcase our culture, but many filmmakers missed the mark.

Most of the epic movies I’ve watched look more like stage plays than real representations of our heritage.

It’s disheartening to see such potential go to waste.”

He added, “I’ve watched several epic movies, and very few have left a lasting impression on me.

We had a great chance to make an impact, but it feels like we blew it.

However, I believe there’s still time to turn things around and get it right.”
