For years, the Grammy Awards have faced criticism for a lack of diversity, with artists of color and women often overlooked in top prizes. However, the Recording Academy has been actively working to address these issues by diversifying its voting body.
Over the past five years, the Academy has made significant strides in increasing diversity among its members. In 2019, a commitment was made to add 2,500 women to the voting body by 2025. Surpassing this goal ahead of schedule, the Academy has added over 3,000 female voting members, marking a substantial achievement in promoting gender equality within the organization.
