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

[Starburst]

Like I said Kanye PISSED on his Grammy and still got a nom. Its over for Cac Shady

How when his album just went platinum?

I would agree with you if there was a steady decline in everything he does, or if he never had a Grammy, but at this stage in his career after several Grammys and no one close to even beating him in album sales, it’s safe to say it’s far from over..

The Coli before today:

‘fukk the Grammys anyway, who cares about the white mans approval’

The Coli today:

‘omg I’m so happy Nas finally got nominated I could cry this was long overdue’

Which one is it

Nas actually been nominated 13 times previously

You know I was also thinking that Dsmoke could have been replaced with May The Lord Watch. That would have definitely made it the BEST crop of rap album nominations ever

Post a better list. Can’t.

Listening to The Allegory for the first time right now...

This is a hella good CONCEPT album..

If this the year where real hip hop spitters and true album makers get the nod, this definitely belonged in the noms.

Impressed

I want Nas to win but Gibbs or Royce SHOULD win. I won’t be mad with any of the 3.

Gotta love all the people talking shyt about an artist and album that they’ve never listened to. Once upon a time you knew nobody. Dumb asses, haha.

Traditional rap won today.

I wonder how an artist feels after being nominated so many times and falling short. I can imagine it must definitely be a knock on their confidence. Respect to the artists who don’t give up, but keep striving and following their dreams.

I hope Nas win this so bad. Just to watch his stans flip their stance on the cac ass Grammys

 

[Tribal Outkast]

I'd like to know too. On some level I'd imagine at the point you really don't care. There's so many reasons not to care too much about the Grammy's. At the same time, there's no doubt that it feels nice to win and is a nice thing to have on your career accomplishments before you leave the game. It's probably a mixed bag of emotions.

Nas and Snoop are the most nominated rappers without a win.


I’m sure their not up at night fretting about it lol.

The best albums never win and Nas knows that. That said, any and every artist would love to win a Grammy, whether they lie about it or not.
