the grammys are for the fans.they build anticipation with commercials,tellin you who's in the building,a huge crazy stage with over the top performances and these little trophies they give to the winning artist(in which they have to pay for if they want to keep them)it's all entertainment.but i guess if you're nominated you wanna win right?some artist do some don't give a fuk.some of the greatest artist ever have no grammys some only have 1 or 2 and some like i said dont give a fuk.james brown only has 3,atcq has none,rick james none,led zeppelin none and the list goes on. so jay z with or without 17 grammys is still an artist who's impacted the game just like any other artist with 1 or no grammys.nas=huge impact wutang=huge impact,fat joe like it or not has had an impact 3-6 mafia=huge impact,geto boys =huge impact and the list goes on.but back to my original point grammys are for the fans.so you and your boys can argue who's better because this person has this many grammys or that many grammys.while the artist sit back and count there money.
keep on being a fan,peace!
