^Right, and for me, it’s a double edged sword. Not so much with the ACMs, but definitely with the CMAs, it took Carrie 10 years into her career to even get an EOTY nomination. Now, these people who are 1-2 years of having mainstream success are not only getting nominated, but winning the award. On one hand, these newer artists do deserve the nominations based on the success they are having, but this is how it should have always been. It’s a shame Carrie had to work so hard and have all that success be completely pushed aside. I just hope these newer artists see the door Carrie opened for them
