Music industry's biggest night – the Grammys is set to hold in a few weeks, but new reports have confirmed that three acts – Kanye West, Drake and Justin Bieber all plan to boycott the award ceremony for different reasons.

According to TMZ, it all started with the singer Frank Ocean who many fans thought would make the list for Album of the year, but later realised he didn’t bother submitting his work for consideration. Ocean thinks the Grammys is now an archaic organisation that doesn’t represent young, black
artistes.

Now, his huge move has prompted other acts to plan on skipping this year’s award. TMZ reveals that Justin Bieber, who is nominated for 4 Grammys, says the award no longer represent younger singers. Drake who has 8 nominations will be on tour in Europe. And Kanye West, who also has 8 nominations, says he has never won when he is pitched against white artistes.
