Teyana Taylor & Ryan Coogler rep culture at Golden Globes
For decades, the Golden Globes have felt like a foreign room to audiences from the culture in the United States! A space where our culture influences everything, but yet our people rarely get called to the stage for the biggest honors. From a Hip Hop perspective, the show has long symbolized how gatekeeping works in Hollywood. Our stories generate billions, our aesthetics define the moment but recognition stops short when it’s time to crown winners.
Many Black viewers traditionally don’t tune in or don’t take the Globes seriously because of that history. It hasn’t felt like an awards show for us. The disconnect isn’t about talent… it’s about access, politics and whose art is deemed “prestige.” So when the Globes come around each year, the reaction is usually indifference mixed with skepticism.
The 2026 Golden Globes shifted that energy in a real way. Seeing multiple African American winners especially Teyana Taylor and Ryan Coogler being recognized for his work on Sinners.
