Nas, Royce, Gibbs and Jay Electronica are nominees for rap album of the year at the Grammy’s

[Waterproof]

what mumble rappers were being rewarded at the Grammys before this?

Go through the Nominations for the past 5-7 year's I'm not going to do the work for you if you was nominated you been rewarded

And I said these new cats is not getting rewarded for their shyt they putting out if you going to quote me, quote me right

I gotta stop by the booth more often. Surprised to see so many people on here that like the same shyt as me .

 

[O.Red]

I think we might be finally seeing The Death of The Mumble Rap era and the long choke hold of Trap Music in hip hop

Mumble rap era is a myth

Nikkas been rapping y'all nikkas just out of touch when you say shyt like this

Them crackas toss some backpack Grammy nods and y'all praising Jesus

Royce and 4 duds. Literally no chance he wins though....

 

[Harry B]

People be like the Grammys are trash and irrelevant until my favorite shyt wins

Respect the list though, is there anywhere you can see the best selling albums during that same period?

I’m also shocked that Lil Uzi isn’t nominated but that again, it’s industry people and artists (I assume very few hiphop people or young people) voting. Cause he has better reviews that all the nominees except Gibbs and he sold more than all combined in like his first week.

 

[tuckgod]

only on the coli are these albums getting nominated over Lil Baby, Roddy, and Pop Smoke acceptable

Well allow me to neg you since you chose to speak up as their coli ambassador.

I’m a Nas disciple and I cannot get into that album. I hope he gets a Grammy tho because he deserves it. He is the goat.

Gibbs shoulda got a Grammy for Piñata or Bandanna.

Jay Electronica will most likely win because he’s associated with Jay Z and it’s basically a joint album with Jay...and you know them white folks love Jay Z.

Alfredo the best album up there

 

[Neuromancer]

Nas better get this.

Twitter is flaming this oldhead ass list

Also who tf is D Smoke

As they should this list is trash and doesn’t represent the current climate of music. Pop smoke and lil baby should have been on this list

Esco, easily. The rest were ok.

Westside Gunn shoulda got a nomination just so he could have a reason to be at the ceremony.




At first I woulda said this was stupid but I already see they changed one of the categories from rap/sung to melodic. I could see them doing this with rap where they have a Best Rap Album and then a Best Melodic Rap album. They already do this with R&B. They split that into 3 (Best Traditional R&B, Best R&B and Best Urban Progressive-- they changed that title too).

Was literally thinking about Gunn. Can’t wait for his Gunnlib project to come out.

 

[CrushedGroove]

I would've been cool if Lil Baby and Roddy was added but I wouldn't have taken anyone off of the current list. I don't know why ya'll talmbout adding Pop Smoke in there. God bless the dead but his album was not worthy to be mentioned alongside any of those. I hit next every time that single with Roddy and 50 come on

Gunn will get his nomination next year after dropping the collabo with Madlib. I can't wait for that

Literally just posted about this .
