2 chainz for best rap album? jesus h christ on a stick

and no kendrick? i guess the grammy cut off was before oct 22

Kendrick was too late, his best hope was a "Best New Artist" like Cole last year but the field was too crowded. Speaking of Cole, he didn't get a nod this year. Kendrick going mos def pull out 2 nods next year for sure.

I don't know why but Kanye having EIGHTEEN wins in such a short period, Jay winning SIX Grammy's for BP3 (:merchant:) and neither Nas nor Snoop having never won seems weird To me.....

Snoop, Busta and NaS are the Susan Lucci's of Hip Hop awards, lol. I can't believe Drake has that many Nods so early. KanYe, Jay and Eminem's wins are out of the world. They have surpassed a lot of Legends like Whitney, Mariah, Janet and Michael Jackson who have way less Grammy's. Jay didn't even drop an LP and he's got 4 Nods this year. Ye got 5 more Nods so they may be piling up more Grammy's. But I really want to see NaS and Snoop finally win one.

Why is everyone hating on Saleem, he f*ckin went in on "Life Is Good":







Also this Nod is long overdue for the Decade Plus he's put in some great production. Congrats to him on the nod. I had the pleasure of meeting him during the "Street's Disciple" Era, laid back guy also.
