As Grammy voting begins, the Recording Academy has added more than 3,000 female members in five years, and its diversity is growing rapidly.
The milestone comes less than five years after the Recording Academy set the goal of increasing representation among women voting members. In total, the Academy has added thousands of new members, and now 66% of the current Grammys electorate has joined in the past five years.
