Junos 2019: Drake is the key to understanding the music award’s confused mission GlobeArts
Drake has been estranged from the Junos since getting shut out of the winner’s circle when he hosted the affair in 2011. He is seen here in this file photo taken on July 20, 2017, at the International Champions Cup soccer match between Manchester City against Manchester United at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas.The fly met the ointment when Drake accepted his award for best rap song at this year’s Grammys.
Second, and perhaps more importantly, CARAS is circumventing its own Juno rules and mandate by not rewarding Drake’s year of unprecedented streaming. The Juno voting process is a byzantine procedure. The nominations in the Fan Choice and top single categories are based on consumption – physical sales, downloads, streams and radio spins – and are independent of an artist’s decision to submit his recordings for consideration or not.
