Sza got robbed because cara isn't a new artist
Technically, neither is SZA, but I get it. There has to be some sort of line in the sand, because especially with hip-hop & R&B it gets blurred by all these mixtapes and promo shyt that technically isn't out for retail yet (and mixtape stuff that winds up out on retail)

Next year, some hip-hop artist is gonna get nominated and we're gonna be like ":dahell: I got tracks by you from 2014 and shyt"
Even my mom loves Bruno Mars. Him winning was inevitable given who votes on this stuff. Kendrick did everything imaginable to win, including having the biggest album of the year by far, and still lost. I bet what hurt most was 4:44 which took urban votes that would have gone to DAMN otherwise.

End of the day he got 5, plus all the producers get a Grammy for best rap album. Daps to Alchemist.

Hov tho...damn. They really had him sit in the front row too lmao. Next album he's def putting out some modern shyt btw.
Now that you mention it, that might have hurt Kendrick.

Bruno is Westbrook

Kendrick and Hov were Curry and Durant

:ohhh:




They don’t fukk with you like that so they’re gonna overlook that incredibly sound logic.
1. Hov and MIGOS got robbed for rap album of the year

2. Migos got robbed for rap performance of the year for bad and boujee

3. Hov got robbed from 4:44 for rap song of the year

4. Hov, Sza, Goldlink got robbed by Kendrick for Best Rap/Sung performance

5. Hov arguably got robbed on rap video of the year








oh and for ALL that rap winning...Kendrick doesn't even win album of the year :laff:



So if they're picking Bruno Mars ... who is picking these rap picks? :patrice:

Obviously have no proof but I feel like Atlantic records has a heavy hand in the outcome of this

Goldlink really had the best rap song of the year and that logic song was better 24k magic. At the end of the day, all of this shyt is better than Taylor Swift and Macklemore

Man Beck won in 2015 and I’m certain no one has STILL heard that album.

Might be an outsider with this opinion but I feel Tyler should have won rap AOTY
Bruh it don’t matter how much logic you bring ... nikkas gone keep making excuses for these votes year after year .... Hell Robert Plant’s old ass won album of the year like 8 years ago for a damn bluegrass album :pachaha: and I liked Led Zeppelin But I KNOW no one was playing a damn blue grass Robert Plants record I’m 2010 FOH
