Kathmandu, June 9. The Grammys is set to add new categories for the awards. It includes special song for social change award and five new categories including songwriter of the year.
The academy announced Thursday that the non-classical songwriter category will recognize one songwriter who did not perform or produce songs during an eligibility year.
CEO Harvey Mason jr said, “Songwriters are at the heart of our business and industry. Nothing happens without songwriters. For us, this was a no brainer. It’s in alignment with all the changes. We thought, ‘How can we do more? Showcase more people and be more inclusive to different genres?'”
Further, the new categories include best spoken word poetry album, alternative music performance, Americana music performance and score soundtrack for video games and other interactive media.
