December 07, 2018

Denzel Curry has called out the Grammy Awards for its nominations in the 2023 rap categories.

The Florida rapper took to Twitter on Tuesday (November 15) to share his unfiltered reaction to the nominations immediately after they were announced. Denzel felt his own album, Melt My Eyez See Your Future, among many others, deserved to be nominated for Best Rap Album, but did salute Kendrick Lamar and Pusha T for their inclusions.

“Glo Rilla Deserves it,” he began. “But For The Rap Album Category I can literally Name you 10 other albums that were actually good congrats to kdot and push but all that other shit come on bruh… This shit bout money at the end of the day so if that’s what it comes down to I’m going get my bread up. In the words of the Late Great Kimbo Slice Man lemme get ma bread.”

He continued: “My Album literally tied with one of the albums that was nominated for a Grammy and I still got robbed. All my homies that came out with Top Notch solid albums this Year Got Robbed. They don’t care about the culture. They only care about building the majors.”

Denzel Curry went on to name albums from Joey Bada$$, Freddie Gibbs, Earl Sweatshirt, J.I.D, Smino, redveil and others, arguing that the quality of their respective work deserved to be recognized.

“2000, TFS, LEARN TO SWIM, MELT MY EYEZ, LUV LETTER, SICK,” he wrote. “There’s more too. PUPPY. $OUL SOLD SEPARATELY.

“N-ggas worked they ass off and y’all give an award to half ass shit. Smino should be nominated. JID should be nominated. Joey Bada$$ should be nominated. Redveil should be nominated. Freddie Gibbs should be nominated. Kenny Mason should be nominated. But I guess n-ggas ain’t mainstream enough right?”

He added: “Saba should be nominated. Kenny beats should be nominated. Earl Sweatshirt should be nominated. Those are my thoughts. And Key Glock Need to be nominated too. The Scammy Nominations.”
