Kendrick Lamar Responds To Grammy Snub

Kendrick Lamar may have deserved to win “Best Rap Album” for his debut project “good kid, m.A.A.d city opposed to Macklemore’s “The Heist” at the 2014 Grammys, but that doesn’t mean he believes Macklemore was undeserving of the honor. Kendrick finally opened up about the Grammy snub that has people still up in a roar. He told XXL Magazine:

It’s well deserved; he did what he did, man… He went out there and hustled and grinded. Everything happens for a reason; the universe comes back around, that’s how it go.

I definitely feel like they should always have more of the culture up in there, for sure, because we definitely stand out just like any other genre.. We part of the world. We part of the movement. So I think any awards, including the Grammys, should always push for more hip-hop because it’s music as a whole, it’s not just splitting different regions. Everything moves as far as sound and vibrations, and that’s how it goes. And we are a part of that.

Kendrick is really a stand-up man and artist, we adore him!
