You spent 20 plus post promoting an award show that was his # 1 supporter.

No I spent 20 promoting THIS






the 58th GRAMMY Awards, Kendrick Lamar had a huge night. After garnering a leading five awards — including Best Rap Album — the rapper took to the GRAMMY stage to deliver a memorable GRAMMY Moment that will likely be talked about for years.

Lamar’s set was a fearless declaration of black pride and celebration of his Compton, Calif., hometown, Africa and the musical influences that helped mold his Best Rap Album-winning To Pimp A Butterfly. Lamar marched onstage in a prison jumpsuit, while shackled to a group of men also dressed as inmates. As his band played inside a makeshift prison cell, Lamar delivered a passionate performance of “The Blacker The Berry” before transitioning to "Alright."

His performance managed to provide timely social commentary on the GRAMMY stage with a relentless fervor. He closed the performance with a previously unheard lyrical barrage punctuated by an illuminated image of Africa with the words "Compton" sprawled across the continent. The performance elicited a worthy ovation for Lamar, who also won Best Music Video for "Bad Blood" with Taylor Swift and swept the Rap Field, including Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song for "Alright" (with Kawan Prather, Mark Anthony Spears and Pharrell Williams) and Best Rap/Sung Collaboration for "These Walls" (with Bilal, Anna Wise and Thundercat).

I really think Wondaland Records and Janelle Monae can shut it down in 2016 if they come out swinging.

I'm expecting a big year from them.

They need more support, from us, from the entire community. They're basically indie and you need money to have a shot.

All I have to say is Adelle sounded like complete shyt with her fat ass

 

[Wild self]

No Chinx Drugz or Sean Price?

That's fukked up

Chinx Drugz is , but not mentioning Sean Price is just disrespect.

Also, Maurice White from Earth, Wind, and Fire needs a massive tribute!

Well, can't deny an incredible piece of art, despite the Booth c00ns talking shyt about Kendrick "not connecting to the streets."

As expected a good night for Kendrick.
Though I do have to wonder as I always do why the grammys have so many Hip Hop categories if its always getting swept or close to swept by one artist each year.
In this case, for Kendrick to sweep it is probably understandable.
