I listened to some of these new nikkas just because I had time and was bored.


Lil Baby’s album wasn’t impressive to me. Besides The Bigger Picture its was the same old shyt most of these other younger rappers be on. He got two nominations in what he SHOULD have been nominated in, for SONGS. The album was just another example of these “artists” placing 2-3 hit singles amongst a bunch of filler to rack up streaming numbers.

Roddy Rich was the same shyt. I’d already heard half the album before but gave it a full listen. Didn’t fukk with it. Although I WILL say The Box is a banger. Thats just a great SONG no matter how you put it. And he was nominated accordingly.
His album had no filler it’s bangers top to bottom and this album was played by ppl top to bottom not just singles that’s what you old nikkas say because you only heard the singles

Only you nikkas would say this is filler some of the best songs on the album

I believe we are at the point where people like Nas & Royce shouldn’t even be in the same category as Lil Baby & Roddy Rich. They need to split genres but no one knows how to do it at this point.
Easy, Hip POP (lil baby, Roddy Rich), and Hip HOP (Nas, Royce, etc)

Listen the Grammy rarely if ever get it right for Hip Hop. We all know that. But this is NaS 5th Nomination for "Best Rap Album" since 1999. That's 21 years straight of Best Rap Album Nods when we know he's deserved it over several albums that beat him. Nothing against the other guys and I'm glad they are getting recognition but it's Esco's time. 14th Nomination overall. Snoop has 17 Nominations and no win. Busta has 12 Nominations and no win. This is on some Oscars Denzel "Training Day" ish or Susan Lucie and the Emmy's. This is the Grammy's chance to give NaS a Lifetime Achievement Grammy. Again anything can happen but looking at the list NaS stands out as the elder statesmen. As for the younger kats not getting nominated. They all are dominating the "Singles" awards. So it's not like they didn't get anything. What I do like about this list is that it focuses on "Lyricism" more than Pop Charts or singles. I know some are disappointed Popsmoke didn't get the album nod but I saw "Dior" was nominated for the singles.
Nas never won because he never deserved it

He didn’t deserve to win over Take Care

He didn’t deserve to win over Tha Carter III

He didn’t deserve to win over Graduation

That’s facts he was never snubbed

Nas is going to be win off narrative and his album is more complete than the others. I better not see Gibbs complain after the fact either. Alfredo was good but 1 dimensional like a mf.

It almost seems like they set it up for Nas to win. Still don’t care about the Grammys. It’s not like cats are going to be bringing up who won best rap album when debating mcs. I guess you can but it’s corny.

see what you call one dimensional I call cohesive.
I can see Nas winning the album was good but for me Alfredo is rap album of the year.

Who are you to say he didn't deserve to win those years? That's hypocritical considering you're going so hard for Lil Baby and Da Baby as if one couldn't argue "they didn't deserve to be nominated".

I’m not going for DaBaby. DaBaby sucks. Not once did I mention DaBaby you old nikkas just mix them up and hate that mfs are calling themselves “Baby”. I’m going for Lil Baby and Pop Smoke who were snubbed everyone except the old nikkas who post here think so.

Nas didn’t deserve to win any of those years he dropped less culturally dominant albums, less influential albums, and inferior albums musically.

There’s zero argument for Lil Baby not being nominated none. Again you nikkas just think he’s an incoherent mumbler and have no grasp of how good he is and how much he dominated the past year.

Nas never won a Grammy because he never deserved to do so. He was never snubbed and the committee doesn’t have shyt against him.

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
