The Recording Academy has announced that an inclusion rider will be used at the 2022 Grammys.
A press release from the Academy stated that the inclusion rider is “to make its best effort to recruit, audition, interview, and hire on-stage and off-stage people who have been historically and systematically excluded from the industry”.
The Grammys will be the first major awards show to use an inclusion rider.
Do you think other award shows will follow the Grammys lead and incorporate an inclusion rider?
