The Grammy academy is corrupt! This year’s award ceremony seemed to upset anyone who cared enough to tune in, so I thought I would let our student body take the reins and determine what the people (of Knoch highschool exclusively) want via Google Forms! Without further ado, let’s face the music!

No matter who you ask or what survey you do, there will always be some people unsatisfied with the results. This all just goes to show that no artist can really ever be “better” than another and everybody is entitled to like who they want and unabashedly enjoy it. That being said, Taylor Swift did not win a single category, which is objectively correct, so way to go Knoch Knights!
