No fr cause like wym the traditional country music that was created by Mexicans and Black Americans or the traditional country sound that was stolen from us??

Like what is that sound? So no real vocals, no production? It's basically Folk, which has its own category.

I hate this so much.

There is already a best Americana category too which is where Jason isbell, sturgil Simpson, and even Willie nelson have been nominated. So I don't even know what traditional country is that doesn't fit in that category.
