“Before the 2018 Grammy nominations were announced Tuesday, many prognosticators thought the race for album of the year would boil down to two artists: British pop star Ed Sheeran for “÷ (Divide)” and rapper Kendrick Lamar for “DAMN.”
Sure enough, Lamar’s record made the list, along with Childish Gambino (“Awaken, My Love!”); Jay-Z (“4:44″); Lorde (“Melodrama”); and Bruno Mars (“24K Magic”). But Sheeran was nowhere to be found, much to the devastation of his fans — although “÷ (Divide)” did land a nod for best pop vocal album.
Soon, the absence of Sheeran’s expected nomination led to a Twitter “moment,” as the social media platform announced that the “Grammys album category has no white men for the first time in 19 years.”
