Perhaps because the album was trash?

Club bangers don't represent the pinnacle of the genre.

LIL John and the eastside boyz haven't won a grammy either. Stop ya bytching
Lil Baby's album is peak mainstream level rap music. That joint is hard af

For comparison, Alch has mentioned Nas multiple times when discussing the Grammys. Just a bad look for 9th all around no excuses. Even if you want to say "well he's noting people who haven't had noms before" nah lol. That ain't it.
Yeah, I agree. Seems weird. 9th is usually over the top congragulatory of 99% of his peers. Just seems very odd to leave Nas off the list. I guess I can understand him leaving off Hit-Boy and Alc because they're producers. But even if you think of him just naming rappers, it still seems kind of strange to leave Nas off, especially when he's a likely favorite to win it, and both Hit-Boy and Alc have extensive working histories with Nas.

Nas only nominated because 9th couldn’t shoehorn Rapsody into anything this year :smugfavre:
