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

[C-Styles]

Even if Nas doesn't win, this right here is HUGE!!! I literally saw the list and couldn't believe it, had to see for myself on their website and they got me like


They finally got it right and the message is bigger than the win as far as hip hop goes. in 2020??? i would've never guessed it

I'm legit celebrating this tonight with a few drinks

 

[Mastamimd]

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

Lmao everyone I know fw this list

White Folks at the Grammy's was like we tired of these wack ass millennials, Generation Z rapper's. Time to bring back the real

 

[Ziggiy]

Am I wrong for thinking that there should be 2 rap/hip hop categories?

Like one for the radio friendly accessible music that deserves praise (pop smoke, lil baby, Roddy rich etc,) then the traditional rapping albums like these listed above.

Because this list is a great rappers list, but doesn’t actually show the real landscape of hip hop right now. but overall solid list

mines would be:
Lil Baby
Nas
Freddie
Pop Smoke
Roddy Ricch
Royce (if I could make it 6 lol)

Yea it would be dope if they had a “Best Rap Album” category and also a “Best Traditional Hip Hop Album” category.


Hip Hop has been outselling and outheadlining EVERY other genre for years now. It should definitely have two genre categories

Which P?

I'm
the only P's that come to my mind are Prodigy, Sean Price, and Styles P.

CEO of Quality Control. He manages Lil Baby, City Girls, Migos, etc.



He should know that the Grammys is won by industry and label politics rather than actual sales, popularity or even quality of music

 

[AMcV'88]

Royce and D Smoke ??



Lil Baby was robbed.

did Pop Smoke, Roddy Ricch, and Juice WRLD get put in a different category or something ?
I don't pay attention or care about the Grammy's like that but I would've assumed they were shoe in's.

Ironically rap album of the year is typically driven by sales and popularity

I root for Nas and whatever actual LYRICIST is nominated every year. It is what it is for me

Not this year. Whoever made the list said "fukk dem keeds and they melodies"

 

[A Tribe Called Quest ™]

Tf is D Smoke

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

They'll give it to Jay Electronica, just for the simple fact Jay-Z's name is attached to it.

Nah, after his comments on Jews they’re not going all the way with him. That would be a PR nightmare in the afternath

 

[A Tribe Called Quest ™]

Outside of Nas and maybe Royce, this that Pitchfork CAC Review nominee list

 

[Waterproof]

I go for who drop the best hip hop album. I'm just calling a Spade a Spade and I'm a Old Head like we used to say I'm just keeping in real

 

[TheOptimisticCynikal]

On the real though, they really need separate categories for hip hop.

Gotta stop the youngin'-oldhead divide yall
