“Obviously, she had one of the best years, if not the best year, of any artist at this point,” he said. “I don’t see why she wouldn’t be nominated for artist of the year. It just really didn’t make any sense to me. It’s disrespectful.”
Punch revealed that he reached out to MTV about the cateogry while on a call about a potential SZA performance at the awards show, but “they couldn’t give a clear answer as to why she wasn’t [nominated]. It was just, ‘Well, she’s nominated for all these other [awards].’”
SZA‘s manager continued, “And they ended up saying, ‘OK, well we could do another call’ because there were people on [the call] about logistics for the show who didn’t have anything to do with [the nominations]. When we tried to set up the second call, they didn’t want to discuss artist of the year, which to me was really a slap in the face.”
SOS notably made history as the longest-leading No. 1 of the 21st century so far on Billboard’s R&B/Hip-Hop albums chart, and it’s gone triple-platinum. Her hit single, “Kill Bill,” went No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

The 2023 MTV VMAs were packed with incredible performances, viral celeb clips and Moon Person trophies on Tuesday, so let’s take a look at some of the most-talked about moments.
Karol G took the stage at this year’s MTV VMAs, performing two of her 2023 songs ‘Oki Doki’ and ‘Tá Ok’. The Colombian singer was one of multiple performers at the ceremony, which took place at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey tonight (September 12).
Anitta has teased a new song called ‘Grip’ as part of a medley performance at this year’s MTV VMAs ceremony.The Brazilian singer-songwriter performed a trio of songs during the show, which took place at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey tonight (September 12). Included in Anitta’s VMAs setlist were the tracks ‘Used to Be’ and ‘Funk Rave’, both of which are lifted from her most recent three-track EP, ‘Funk Generation: A Favela Love Story’.Anitta concluded the medley with ‘Grip’, an as-yet unreleased track that saw the singer flanked by neon-dressed dancers and pulsating choreography.
that’s how to make mo money.Lil Wayne has been around longer enough to now have elder-statesman status at 40. And in honor of the 50th anniversary of hip-hop, it’s fitting that a rapper would open this year’s VMAs.But “Uproar” — a relatively minor hit from 2018’s “Tha Carter V” — and the new single “Kat Food” didn’t exactly take us back to the classic Weezy vibeology of “A Milli” (which he did return to perform in the hip-hop finale) and “Lollipop.”Thankfully, Olivia Rodrigo — who, 20 years younger than Wayne, would have made more sense as the opener in 2023 — swooped in to help save the opener in the end with “Vampire” and “Get Back.”Two years ago, Doja Cat hosted and performed at the VMAs back when she seemed a little green to be pulling double duty.
MTV Video Music Awards have begun, and Shakira is in the building. Along with her for the special occasion were two very special plus 2’s, her children, Sasha,8, and Milan,10, who she shares with her ex Gerard Pique.She arrived in a stunning backless gold sequined floor-length Versace gown with a plunging neckline and a high slit.
Taylor Swift was the big winner at the 2023 MTV VMAs, including the top award of the night Video of the Year for “Anti-Hero.” The singer-songwriter had the odds in her favor as she was the most nominated artist of the night going into the award show with eight mentions.
tearin’ up the hearts of diehards who hoped the heartthrobs would reunite on the mic, longtime *NSYNC lovers were just happy to see the group come together in style.
