Brian May decried the removal of separate male and female categories for the solo artist prizes at the U.K.'s biggest music awards.
Earlier this week, the Brits scrapped four awards — male solo artist, female solo artist,male solo artist and international female solo artist — in favor of two gender-neutral categories — artist of the year and international artist of the year.
Organizers said the change was to reward artists “solely for their music and work, rather than how they choose to identify or as others may see them” and was part of the event’s “commitment to evolving the show to be as inclusive and as relevant as possible.”
