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

[Ziggiy]

Congratulations to Nas for the nomination. This could be the year he gets it. And congratulations to the person who put together the nominations because it's obvious the other rap categories were put together by the usual suspects.



Eminem doesn't fukk with the Grammys anymore. He dissed them on Kamikaze ("Then give Album of the Year to somebody that no one's ever even heard of"), told them to not nominate him or invite him ever again, and shytted on their entire voting process calling it "fake as fukk." If he kept quiet, Music to Be Murdered By would have been nominated this year and Kamikaze would have been nominated in 2019.

Kanye West literally PISSED on a Grammy and streamed it to millions of people and still got a nomination


Eminem isn’t America’s Great White Hope anymore (and hopefully there will never be one again) and Hip Hop has fortunately largely moved on from him. I’d like to se him fade into obscurity

Ye of little faith

I won’t even ask you how

 

[Mike the Executioner]

Then you aren’t truly a fan. That album was amazing top to bottom

Little Brother was eligible last year, not this year.

Rap Album of the Year looking

I hope Nas win but I wouldn't be upset if Jay Electronica Won

Nominations from my grading system would be different.

These aren't bad projects though.

Freddie Gibbs: Alfredo 78.75%
Royce Da 5'9'': The Allegory 78.13%
D Smoke: Black Habits 75.00%
Jay Electronica: A Written Testimony 75.00%
Nas: King's Disease 74.04%

The closer the project is to 80% the doper the project is.

I'd personally choose The Allegory from those nominations, but I wouldn't debate Alfredo at all.

Nas is winning that. And he rubbing shoulders with all these billionaire business people and shyt, yeah, they're gonna finally give him his award.

That's so hip hop.
Rub shoulders with the cacs you badmouth in your music for an award. He's more like Jay z than you think.

It's like this hip hop is an art and The Underground, Subterranean treated it like that and drop Full Thoughtful, Lyrical, Concept Album and I include K.Dot and Cole because they are hip hop heads

But these new cats are not doing that and now they are not getting rewarded for their single driven mixtape ass albums

 

[CrushedGroove]

I'm happy for all the brothers on that list. The grammys are trash but all of these works deserve recognition. Hopefully D Smoke gets some recognition now.

I'm glad Wilder supremely fukking up after that dope ass intro he did didn't negatively affect Smoke

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

What was Kanye's nomination? I couldn't find it.

And Eminem was an easy nomination for years. Before Revival, literally all of his albums got nominated. Even after he said what he said, they still nominated him for Best Rap Song in 2019. I definitely believe his comments had something to do with it because why nominate "Lucky You" and not the album it came from? Eminem's people got in the Academy's ear and let them know to leave him alone, and they listened.
