Saw the weekend in Montreal amazing voice!❤
That's because that's Abel, not the weeknd lol
It was more than just him being not nominated, he was likely to be nominated but when he declined performing at the Grammys due to Super Bowl conflicts they then took it personal and didn’t nominate him for anything
Alright now please apologize to Ariana grande and give her back her awards
eles sabem o quanto perderam
At his best performance 🤎
We all have been waiting for this so long……😱
🖤XO🖤
Scammys apologies but we won't forgot what they did to after hours
The Weeknd is bigger than measly Grammys
❤
They didn’t apologize, he sold his soul
Sell out!
'The Grammy's owes me…' is why he wasn't nominated.
No entendí por qué la gente se vuelve loca por él. Era necesario esas "disculpas" de los Grammys. Por no nominarlo.. que ridículos..
This just proves that the recording academy are too lazy to actually change anything. They’re corrupt and they can’t do a simple thing like have the people actually vote for the nominations instead having a team of people who are in a bubble do the voting or having artists cash in their wins (Yk who im talking abt)
i cant find the full performance😭 did anyone find it please put the link or tell me where it iss
Well, it's still exposure for his new material. HE NEEDED this more than the academy needed him. LOL.
Fantastic, you show them Abel. Brilliant. Kissland, After Hours, DawnFM all deserved awards and acknowledgement.
Hall of Fame beckons.
TB 1996 DAYDREAM ALBUM
Disappointed 😞 he went back 😪 I'm still boycotting the grammy 😔
He better win album of the year in 2026 or we boycotting again
wooo ❤❤❤❤😊😊
Wheres the video bruh
Open Hearts bout to be track of the year
The Weeknd is the greatest in this Generation. Grammys have a huge apology to Abel. Got zero nominations for After Hours which is by far one of the greatest albums in his new trilogy. He's an artist who shows ART, other artist like him don't have that
How on EARTH WAS AFTER HOURS RECEIVED ZERO NOMINATION?
uptill now… An Very very Angry 💢😡
He is flopping now, so he is crawling back to Grammy for relevance.😂
That's why it's now called Scammys. Hahaha
freaking hate the weeknd at the moment because he's beefing with a sixer but he's the most unique artist with one of the best song catalogues out there with no grammy? why did he even show up after all this?
We should take this ur flowers! Yes and while we’re alive at that!!!👋👌👊
Sooooooooo, why wasn’t he nominated?
Ok grammys but what about One Sweet Day back in 1996 hmmmm??🙄
YESS THE LEGENDARY HAS CAME BACK❤
goat
XOTWOD
Same they did with TTPD this year… shame on Grammys!🤢🤢🤢
Same with Nicki Minaj.
Yeah but still After Hours was snubbed and nothing will fix that.
The weeknd>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>grammy
Part of me understands why he did it to play the game but the other part of me feels like it was a weak move to forgive them
😮Similaar Hairstyle…jayz😉
Having a beef with the GOAT of the industry has been insane anyway
Hopefully Hurry up tomorrow, at least gets nominated for AOTY. It's a phenomenal album that deserves the chance at winning AOTY this time
