Killer Mike Arrested

Sunday night at the Grammys, Jay-Z moped over his wife, Beyonce, not winning the Album of the Year award despite being nominated four times. The rapper-turned-music mogul went off on the people who decided who would get the prize.

According to Forbes Magazine, J-Zay is purportedly worth close to one billion dollars. There are starving children who are moping over where to find their next meal. In 2017, at the 59th Grammy Awards, British singer Adele took home the coveted Album of the Year award.

Adele Took The Prize

 

While accepting the award, Adele told the audience Beyonce should have won the award. “We fucking adore you,” Adele said to Beyonce. “You are, and the way you make me and my friends feel…the way you make my Black friends feel is empowering.”

“I can’t possibly accept this award, and I’m very humbled, grateful, and gracious, but my life is Beyoncé,” Adele said. Adele left the stage without giving Beyonce the award she claimed Beyonce deserved.

 

 

She paid for lip service in full. The 2017 win was Adele’s second Album of the Year award. Adele’s first win was in 2012.
Rapper’s Un Delight

Jay Z criticized the Grammy for giving the top award to Taylor Swift instead of Beyoncé. “I don’t want to embarrass this young lady,” the 54-year-old rapper said. His 12-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy, stood next to him on stage.

The music mogul continues referring to his wife, “But she has more Grammy than everyone and never won Album of the Year. So, even by your metrics, that doesn’t work.

Think about that. Most Grammys never won Album of the Year. That doesn’t work.” Jay-Z is correct that Beyonce has won more Grammys than others. However, some wins include performances with other artists, such as Destiny’s Child, and under the Carters work group.

This is the second time Taylor Swift, the 14-time Grammy winner, has bested Beyonce for the title. The first time was in 2010 when Swift won with her album “Fearless” over Beyonce’s “Sasha Fierce” album.

Déjà vu or Planned Farce?

This incident is not the first time another artist has stood up on stage for Beyonce when she lost an award to Taylor Swift. In 2009, wild man Kanye West performed a similar ritual at MTV’s Video Awards show.

While Taylor Swift gave her acceptance speech for her Best Video Music Award (VMA) win, Kanye jumped on stage. Yo, Taylor, I’m thrilled for you, I’mma let you finish. But Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time! One of the best videos of all time!”

Beyoncé has the most Grammy wins, 32, followed by Georg Soltis, 31, Quincy Jones, 28, and Alison Krauss and Chick Corea, who tie with 27 wins.

The top winner for the night was pop/indie singer Phoebe Bridgers, who had four wins.

Rapper Killer Mike Arrested

What kind of special musical celebration would it be without a Black man getting arrested? LAPD is claiming they took Killer Mike (Michael Santiago Render) into custody for assaulting someone.

LAPD says the arrest had nothing to do with the Grammys. However, Billboard reported that the 48-year-old rapper got arrested for shoving Grammys security. Killer Mike has lost street credibility with sensible Black Americans. Getting arrested builds credibility only with morons. The rapper won three of the four Grammys in the Rap Music categories.
