Taylor Swift has 10 Grammy Awards, Marvin Gaye has 2

Since this is a rap board I'm gonna focus on rap specifically.

The Grammys ignored rap music for literally a decade....then in 1989 gave the first Rap Performance Grammy to DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince....which was cool but the shyt that rap fans were really listening to ("Straight Outta Compton", "It Takes A Nation Of Millions", "Follow The Leader", "Making Trouble")....actually fukk it, here's a list of the rap albums that came out in '88:

1988 in hip hop music - Wikipedia

Anyway, they ignored what was actually going on in hip-hop. This should be a big ass clue how the Grammys operate, across the board. So to see rap fans actively participate in Grammy discussion is as hell....they don't give a fukk about you, or the genre. Then again the vast majority of this board is just pop fans infatuated with a couple rappers they'll eventually outgrow, so it is what it is.

It's not specific to rap, Rock didn't have an award until 1980, that's nearly 30 years and 20 years after people were moving 40 million units.

The grammy's have always been old people who don't understand the new school. Pun intended.

Michael Jackson, Kanye and Beyonce have numerous grammys













My bad...this is a one sided thread about the whitemans acceptance...continue on.

nikka u stay capin for these crackas. Smh.

 

[spliz]

They didnt make their own musicpersonally that matters to me.

yes they did. If u talkin bout making beats than I guess most legendary hip hop artists aren't "artists" to u. If that's the case. fukk is u doin on this forum? I'm tired of u nikkas actively disrespecting hip hop on this forum.

 

[419scam]

The only travesty is Bob Marley not winning. The other 3 were good entertainers but not artists.

Paint ur walls wit ur brains..

 

[BO BARON]

Most album of the year nominees and winners didn’t sell as much as the other albums. Beck, Herbie Hancock, Daft Punk, Ray Charles, Mumford and Sons and other recent winners all won that category over albums that sold many more copies.

Ohh ok

But still has any black artist put out a album as impactful while at the sametime spawning a bunch of major hits the level of or since the miseducation of lauran hill won

Not beyonce & lemonade wasnt as impacting & didnt spawn as many hits as 25 or maybe it did but 25 was huuuuuuuggggggeee so it was merited aofy

Outside of that what black artist deserved aoty & didnt win

And if im not mistaken beck & herbie handcock wrote produced sang & played every instrument heard on those specific album so they deserved it strictly off that alone

All that black & white shyt gotta go

So I know for a fact you'll be alone tonight. so when I log on tomorrow I wanna see those 3 examples being that you wont be busy tonight and will spend Valentines day lurking the coli, giving daps, negs and expressing your worthless opinions in threads.

Who cares about the grammys ?

The Booth does every year

 

[KillerB88]

This. I'm so tired of nikkas whining about The Grammys & Oscars while at the same time they ignore/clown The Soul Train Awards & Image Awards. I can't take them seriously.

I was telling my lady this. I didn't feel bad for Beyonce not winning and if she were to feel slighted I wouldn't care. Your own people DO recognize your greatness, but you don't even value the awards enough to show up to the ceremony.

 

[Mowgli]

Grammys = racist cacs

What do racist cacs do? Acknowledge white people more then black people. Logic

 

[Apollo]

And Beyonce has 22 grammys.
