Lil Wayne speaks on snub from Grammys.
Lil Wayne is going through a difficult time after pleading guilty to a federal weapons charge and will face up to 10 years of jail time. However, he’s also struggling with not getting respect from The Recording Academy/Grammy as for their 63rd annual event, he’s not involved not invited.
He took to his Twitter to ask if it IS him, his music, or some other reason for the Grammy snub. “As an artist, when I see da Grammys coming up & I’m not involved nor invited; I wonder. Is it me , my musik, or just another technicality? I look around w respect & wonder competitively am I not worthy?! Then I look around & see 5 Grammys looking bak at me & I go to the studio.” wrote Weezy.

At the 2009 Grammy Prizes, Weezy won four awards in one night: best rap solo performance for “A Milli,” best rap song for “Lollipop,” best rap performance by a duet or group for his “Swagga Like Us” collaboration, and best rap album for Tha Carter III. In 2017, he won the Grammy Award for best rap performance for his song “No Problem.”
Funeral, his 13th studio album, which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart in February 2020, did not win a Grammy nomination in the general or rap categories, but it did win a Grammy nod for best recording package. If Funeral had won, it would have gone to art director Kyle Goen rather than Weezy, but it was defeated by “The Desert Sessions” Vols. 11 & 12.
A lot of people respond and say that all of this is happening because he supported Donald Trump and not involving in the Black Lives Matter protest.
Fuk the Grammys
