Four Latin Jazz musicians are suing the Grammy Awards for cutting their category from the list of awards handed out each year.
In a suit filed in New York state court, the musicians accuse the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences of threatening their careers by denying them the chance to win a coveted Grammy.
The academy cut Latin Jazz along with 30 other categories in a streamlined list that still tops out at 78 awards.
But in their suit, filed last week, the four artists say the changes unfairly derailed their career-long build-ups to becoming Grammy winners.
One plaintiff, Benjamin Lapidus, who heads a Latin Jazz group and has been an academy member since 2001, says he had been told he would have a chance for an award in the Latin Jazz category if he released his eight album, "Generaciones," this year. (more - Click News Headline title)
