Classical label resigns from Grammys over jailbird’s award
mainThis year’s Swedish Grammy awards have been hit by the resignation of the country’s leading classical label, BIS.
Apparently, the Hip-hop award went to a nice young man called Yasin, who is doing serious jail time for weapon crimes and kidnap.
The Swedish IFPI which issues the award said it wanted to draw a line between artistic values and his private life.
That flipped the lid at BIS.
