LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Taylor Swift has made history by winning 14 Grammys over her career. She broke the internet after securing her 4th Album of the Year Award at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards. While Swifties celebrated her victory, many were disappointed with SZA losing in the same category. Alongside Taylor, Solana Imani Rowe aka SZA, was also nominated for the Album of the Year category for her album 'SOS.' Seeing Taylor also win Best Pop Vocal Album for her song 'Midnight,' people were left tired of seeing her on the stage.

Many argued that SZA was more deserving than Taylor, leading to a user tweeting, "I’m sorry buuuut SZA should’ve won album of the year not Taylor. They really played in my girl face UNACCEPTABLE." Another claimed, "AOTY was for SZA!! . I'm tired of Taylor." 

A disappointed fan exclaimed, "SZA lost to Taylor Swift… SOS lost to whatever her album was called. THIS IS WILDDD." Another disapproved of Taylor's win, stating, "I mean I shouldn’t be surprised but still I lowkey thought AOTY would go to SZA cause SOS was a pretty good album and everyone was in love with it and got played everywhere. But, yet again it goes to Taylor Swift."

"Taylor Swift could sing about pissing outside and they will give her an award for it and SZA wrote one of the best albums ever, she DESERVED Album of The Year," another angry user tweeted after the award ceremony. "Taylor Over Sza IKYFL," tweeted one.
