In the United States, the Recording Academy’s new Best Asian Pop Music Performance category has drawn public criticism, according to a report from Tribune.com.pk. The public split is between those who may view the category as recognition for Asian pop and critics who may see it as a limiting label; the report includes a comment saying, “we've created a little corner for you that you can inhabit. this is your limit.” The available source does not report the Academy’s rationale or any formal next step.
