The 62nd annual Grammy’s kicked off yet another year of music honors and showbiz controversy. Just ten days before the very long and contentious ceremony, the Recording Academy ousted their first woman leader, then-CEO Deborah Dugan, following her allegations of gender discrimination, sexual harassment, and rigged voting procedures within the organization. The weight of such allegations was heavy on the show itself, with host and singer-songwriter Alicia Keys’ vaguely remarking “it’s been a hell of a week.”With the Grammy’s carrying the history of stuffy performances and old, white honorees, the Grammy’s had to deliver what the people wanted—or risk being just another award show labeled “irrelevant.” Did it succeed?
