Although the Grammy Music Award is an award of the American recording industry, it has now become one of the most influential music awards in the world.

Grammy in music is like Oscar in film. Although there is no doubt that they are all branded with American culture, most musicians all over the world are still proud to hold this old phonograph.

Grammy can be talked about by musicians all over the world, except that the United States has always been the center of global pop music, representing a higher level of pop music for three reasons:

★ Authority-People who have no real talent and practical learning and lack persistent pursuit of the music industry generally cannot enter the jury. The jury composed of so many senior professionals will naturally be trusted by music lovers.

★ Fairness-There are very strict rules and procedures for the selection of Grammy Music Awards. After product recommendation, it must be screened by 150 experts from various fields in the music industry before classification.

★ Broad influence-Grammy awards were not famous at first, but TV helped a lot. Television not only turned the original rigid Grammy Awards ceremony into a colorful music program, but also greatly improved the international popularity of the Grammy Awards by broadcasting it live to the whole world.

The 44th Grammy Awards Gala attracted about 170 countries around the world. The Grammy Awards ceremony went global, which made great contributions to the Grammy Music Awards being widely accepted by musicians all over the world.
