"All Stars" from "Black Panther" is presumed to be one of two songs performed at the Oscars

The Academy of Arts and Film Science has had a rocky "off season". Not only will the annual gala have a guest for the first time in 30 years, but the Academy has also decided to adjust some aspects of the show, leaving some fans of the event to question the motives of the event. 'program.

In order to limit the broadcast to less than three hours, the Academy has decided that only two of the five nominees of this year's best original song award would occur, thus breaking with tradition. According to Variety, only "All Stars" from Black Panther and "shallow" of A star is born will be performed during the show.

This is a pretty big break from the norm because, traditionally, the five nominees had the chance to play their songs before the unveiling of the award. To add to the dubious maneuver – or dare I say, conspiracy – the pair of songs (and their respective albums) was released by Interscope Records, a brand owned by Universal Music Group.

Through Variety's report, the other three songs – "The Place Where Lost Things Go" from Mary Poppins is back, "I'm going to fight" from RBGand "When a cowboy swaps his spurs for wings" of The Scruggs Buster Ballad – will be recognized only at the announcement of the award, which will naturally raise concerns within the music community.

Best Original Song is Not the Only Oscar Nomination Black Panther received. In fact, the Marvel Studios property has registered seven nominations, including Best Film, making it the first superhero movie to win a nomination.

"All The Stars", an original song recorded only for Marvel Studios & # 39; Black Panther has gained ground this season of prizes, being nominated for the record and the Grammy Award year song, in addition to its Oscar award. In total, the Black Panther soundtrack has won eight Grammy nominations including Record, Album and Sony of the Year, Best Rap Performance, Best Rap Song, Best Film Music for Visual Media and Best Song Written for Visual Media.

"Shallow" is the only other Oscar – nominated song to receive a Grammy nomination, where she is also nominated for the year 's record and the song of the year.
