They only get songs and belt them out. That's it. No musical talent involved.

To say they dont have any talent is to avoid the deep truth. What is musical talent for a "Song of the Year"? Opera Singers can hit every note in the book and they can do a performance in their genre. You wouldnt expect them to bust a move, because thats not what their style is about. They do what they do, and they are amazing at it.
By saying they have no talent, you go on to offend every Opera singer by saying that they have no good at doing what they do. Their work conveys equal amounts of emotion and is often accompanied with grand orchestras.
What is your criteria for "Album of the Year"? You claim that artistic value is one...but what is that? Opera singers do what they do. They might not be as popular for Teens or mainstream listening adults...but what does that mean for talent? They might not have #1 hits and dance music videos but that is not what the winner must have.
