During his concert at Phoenix, Kanye West the self-declared most impactful person of our generation unleashed the wrath of Jesus about the Grammys.
Kanye only picked up two nominations from the award ceremony and he even considers the pair as a snub.
West feels as though his latest album "Yeezus" isn’t getting the respect it’s due from the Grammys, especially given its commercial and critical success.
West ranted, “I’m 36 years old and I have 21 Grammys. That’s the most Grammys of any 36-year-old. Out of all of those 21 Grammys, I’ve never won a Grammy against a white artist.”
He continued, “And Yeezus is the top one or two album on every single list. But only gets two nominations from the Grammys. What are they trying to say? Do they think that I wouldn’t notice?”
The rapper further ranted:
Do they think that, someway, I don’t have the power to completely diminish all of their credibility at this moment? But no, no. Only positive energy, only positive vibes. But when you see me talking about what people are doing when I say ‘marginalized,’ when I say ‘boxed in,’ when I say ‘hold back,’ when I say people are afraid of the truth, that’s one example right there in front of you. And people come to me and congratulate me on those two nominations. F*CK THOSE NOMINATIONS!
