Now, of course, before we get into the Size 7 Awards, I mean, the White Tank Top Awards show, more commonly referred to as the Grammy. Safe to say, the big business has to be addressed, because guess what? I don't know if y'all know, but as far as the Grammys and the big business behind the scenes, you know, they ran for a whopping 54 years. Now you probably think it to yourself. I know that ain't who I think it is. What do you mean 54 years? Well, I'm glad you asked. As far as the 54-year run, that is what happened with the Grammys telecast on CBS.

But guess what? It ended this year. But then, you know what I'm saying? So when it comes to that, safe to say, you're probably wondering where is the Grammy's going now? Where as far as negotiations and things of that nature, Disney won the opening bid as they have a 10-year agreement from 2027 to 2036, for simocast on ABC Hulu and Disney Plus. So shout out to the mouse.

Once again, proven that Disney is one of the biggest conglomerates in the world. But with big business out of the way, now let's get to the winners of the Grammys. Because at the end of the day, this is some of the biggest, objectively speaking, some of the biggest stars in the music industry. So even though, you know, humorously,

I take my shots at the one and only size seven, I mean, white tank top, which, you know, funny enough, that man had a whole rap on his hand. I was like, well, he just finished, what he just getting finished? You know, what he just, what he do? Shepard. All right, my fault. You know, I didn't know his hands was, anyways. With that being said, Bad Bunny is one of the artists that I definitely want to get to, as you already know,

as far as people who support the notorious mass effect, safe to say, y'all support has been through the roof to the playware. Of course, as you can see right now, Analytic Dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio we are one of the top music podcasts not only on Spotify but of course when it comes to my top country in the world guess what ladies and gentlemen i don't know if you can see i mean i would point to it but i'll point to it with my cursing there we go all right so as far as uh the top country in the world for notorious master faith is mexico and my well i call them supporters my supporters top artist was the one and only bad bunny it's almost like y'all need to clap it up for

yourself and pat yourself on the back because guess what y'all know good music as bad bunny by far in away won the biggest award as of course with debby tarar amos photos with it being the chart topping album of course launching his groundbreaking Puerto Rico residency which i see a lot of people incorrectly saying that a lot of other artists are copying it but at the end of day when you really look at the residency has been around for quite some time as far as artist doing residency. The reason why it was groundbreaking for a bad bunny is because the reason behind the residency, Bad Bunny, even before all of this acknowledgement for the album, Debbie Taranamo's photos, before the acknowledgement as far as the Grammys, the Super Bowl, things that nature,

guess what? He'd been saying that he will not perform in the U.S. because of the ice race currently. So, Bad Bunny's been taking a, took a stance with this. And, For some reason, you know, as far as side missions, it doesn't get much extra than this. As this man starred in the film, Happy Gilmore 2 and Cot Stilling. So at the same time, he was dominating the music industry. He was also being the actor and Happy Gilmore 2 and Cott Stilling. And so when it comes to the Grammys, you know, getting back into the Grammys, he won five Latin Grammys, including Album of the Year.

And don't forget that when it comes to the Grammy's, you know, billboard he was named the greatest pop star of 2025 but ladies and gentlemen this is his second time winning it overall so when we're talking about bad bunny just already note that he's one of the biggest artists and musicians in the world and so when it comes to him headlining the Super Bowl I'm under the assumption that is an upgrade especially after what we saw last year which you know you know hilariously enough you know I may have to bring on my Instagram once more you know definitely make sure to follow me on my social media is via my link tree in my bio.

But let's just say your boy went kind of viral. One of the most viral clips of all time from notorious mass effect as me talking about Kendrick at the Super Bowl and talking about the Grammy. So safe to say, what are we doing right now? We're about about Kendrick and the Grammy. So yeah, when it comes to the clip potential of this specific segment, safe to say it's through the roof.

But, you know, the jogging memory. I basically wasn't the biggest fan of Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl, especially the way he structured a lot of things in the tracks that he didn't play. It has to be a crime. I think side seven should be arrested the way that he didn't perform like that on the Super Bowl stage. Because I'm thinking to myself, that's the song that even got you to this point. Like, there was no other track you could have been on where if you would have said the big three is just big me, it would have hit like that.

The like that track is one of the greatest hip hop tracks of all time. And for that to not be performed at the Super Bowl, I was just thinking he really thinks it's just big me. Like he said, forget all the people that gave me that. Ali Ups even slam dunk on Drake, I'm just going to act like it was me the whole time. It was only me. So, you know, that's one of my, you know, several caveats as far as critiques for his performance at the Super Bowl. But also, when it comes to the distant drink point, safe to say I was one of the few people

in which is probably why the clip went viral, that, you know, I was talking about how the only way you could get record a year is if you disc Kint Drake. And the only people who won record of the year is people who's disdrait. Make that make sense. I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? So, you know, I'm not saying anybody from the Grammy saw that. It was like, hold up now.

Let's award him again just because they only think if you just Drake, you get a record of the year. I was like, y'all basically proving my point. Guess what? What do y'all think Kendrick got all those awards for doing? What do you think his, do you want me to show you what Kendrick was wearing? Why do you think he was wearing this, you know, besides other reasons, you know? Let me see.

Kendrick Lamar's Grammy's outfit. Let me see, 2026 just to make sure. So as far as his specific outfit, safe to say he had a certain wrap on his ham that, you know, boxes have, you know, after they finish boxing, they take off their gloves or whatever. And safe to say,

when it comes to this one, why does he keep showing me stuff from 2025? Let me see, do they have a picture of... Okay, here we go. All right, so as far as showing you, this man's outfit, pause. I just want to let you know that this right here,

analytic Dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio but essentially speaking this right here this little rap on his hand this is what I'm talking about

so this is like what boxers have when they put on gloves and so it like helps the cushion for when they fight so they don't break their hand or whatever

even though Floyd made whether broke his hand a bunch of times but you know that's what I was at the point that's basically to let you know who he just finished

who he just finished who now I'm not going to say if his hands is by shepherd I'm just going to say basically he said he was whooping on Drake, right? So, you know, all the other conspiracy theories out there, you know, as far as what he was doing, wrapping his hand like that, you know, y'all need to stop with that.

Y'all need Jesus. So anyways, getting back to why Kendrick won record at the year. Once again, I go back to him dissing Drake. I think if there's an artist out there that could win record of the year and they don't go through with dis and Drake, they would never see the light. That would never see the record of the year light a day. You guys. See, that's the problem.

So I think my point still stands about you having the disc Drake to even have a pathway to record of the year as a hip-hop musician. Because if you think about it, Luther from Kendrick, right? Not like us from Kendrick. And this is America, which I'm not going to bring it up again. Actually, I may bring it up again. Because, you know, every time I say this, people think I'm just speaking another language. Childish Gambino said it started off as a Drake disc. So when it comes to this is America, I know you hear the full song, the final song, but hear what it sounded, uh, hear from the horses mouth, what he said it started off like, right?

So as far as, uh, let me see, this is America and best believe we have a lot to get into. So whatever you like as far as, you know, what do you like to enjoy as far as, uh, long form content, get your snack, your popcorn, your drinks, because best believe you're going to break this. Grammys down like a kilo and Miley Cyrus. So anyways, this is a child is Gambino. So the first hip-hop artist to win a Grammy, right? This is him basically talking about how the track started off. Really honest, like, this is America.

Like, that was all... Let's see if I can find it very quick. I'm trying to pull this up for y'all. I can't pull up all the clips because, you know, the Grammys, they copyright and stuff. But anyways, we're going to get to that in a second. Started as a joke. To be completely honest, like, this is America,

like, that was all we had was, like, that line. Okay, can't play that. I'm just gonna talk over there. And it started as a Drake disc. Hold up now. What you mean? It started as a what? Drake this.

Huh? And it started as a Drake disc. Oh my goodness Lord. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? What's up with hip hop artists only get record of the year when they diss the Canadian? I just, I just can't figure it out, man.

You guys. See, that's the problem. And, you know, as far as the Grammy, me safe to say it's supposed to recognize all the biggest superstars in the musical field and one of the people or one of the groups that was ignored which if you don't know um it was very interesting right how they very much ignored a lot of the country music despite his dominance and i'm not mad at it once again i know we're jumping all over the place i'm basically saying how the gramees is uh constructing itself right now because even though drake was ignored now i'm getting into the other people that was ignored

ignored. Basically, country artists were ignored and I don't feel sorry for one bit because when Cody's Johnson, when Cody Johnson's artists got up there when receiving record of the year and basically said it was kicking Shibuzi, I was thinking to myself, hold on now. I know that ain't who I think it is. I noticed that the country music awards proven time and time again while they may be the most racist award show in history. You guys. See, that's the problem. So I don't care for, you know, I don't care about the Gramies ignoring the country because, you know, over here we cover all genres. So I'm definitely aware of why they would ignore a country, especially with Morgan Wallen, saying the hard ER and still having one of the most popular albums in the world.

To be more specific, he has the second most play album in the world with Omniprocom. And it came out last year. So if you want to be a successful country artist out there, just say the hardy art. You know what I'm saying? Shepard. All right. All right. Let's get to the video of this man acting the most outlandish, especially with the,

the racism at the country music awards. Mind you, this was just last year ago. This was just one year ago. You know how people would be like, oh, you know, racism is dead. People don't feel like that anymore. Just pay attention to this right here. Just listen, you know, listen closely.

Because I don't want the Grammys to strike me for this one. Or not the Grammys, the CMAs. Not one to take the... Hold on. Here we go. This cowboy has been kicking Shibuzi for a lot of years, y'all. Wait, what they say? Wait, hold on.

What he say? that boy has been kicking shibuzzi for a lot of years y'all coming to like i said one of the most racist music award shows of all time so anyways uh with that means there was a lot of different moments at the gramees i definitely wanted to start off with kendrick because you know definitely big kudos to him you know all jokes aside he is the greatest rapper in my opinion as far as in the modern era i believe he doesn't have any competition when it comes to the rapping art for him and the objective success, right?

Because just because you sell a lot does not mean you make the highest quality of content. Just because you don't sell, does not mean you make the most egregious thing possible. The two don't correlate. When it comes to the Grammys, usually those two have to have, they have to be at a certain level, right?

You can't just be in the basement, rapping the best and not selling it all because it's objective metric that they also wanna see as far as engagement, right? So when we come to these rappers, Kendrick, I believe, is the best at objectively having a lot of engagement and also having the high tier master class level of rapping. So for that, leading into my next point, as he is the most awarded, the most Grammy awarded rapper of all time. So passing the one and only Sean Carter, aka J.Z.

So now, if you was wondering about the list, it's safe to say Kendrick has 27, JZ has 25, Kanye West has 24 M&M, he has 15 And I think it's basically I don't see the other I don't see I think Lauren Hill has eight I think I don't know

She's tied with others But basically I think Drake has like five I believe Anyways The top four is Kendrick JZ Kanye West and Eminem They're basically letting you know As far as the Grammy's voting board

They're letting you know Who they think Has been the greatest hip hop artist Of all time So you know Drake being completely excluded From that list You know

I just don't know how much validity I could give to it, man. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? Because even though I do believe Kendrick's the best at rapping as far as the art form of putting words together, I believe Drake's the overall best artist as far as finding different sounds, pockets, melodies, and flows to go along with it, which is not the same as rapping, if you don't know.

So anyways, so that's why, you know, Drake's my favorite artist. I don't know if I, you know, said that, but I could probably tell by this point. So getting into the rest of the Grammys, safe to say when it comes to the big business behind the scenes you already got to that k-pop oh hold on now now did y'all know the notorious mass effect the first time i ever got posted from a fan account was from a k-pop group crazy you know the whole time you know i'm catering towards hip-hop you know which i still do you know for the most part i mean look at my next out my next episode coming out i mean you know i care notorious hip-hop you know what i'm saying so as far as um

My first time ever being posted by a fan account, being on a K-pop group, it was very surprising. And then I started to realize, well, maybe I should keep covering more genres. And then I ended up being one of the most consumed podcasters in Mexico. So, you know, basically, to bring it full circle. K-pop, K-pop demon hunters. I was one of the first people that ever jump on that bandwagon as far as talking about how popular, not only the show was, but the soundtrack. The soundtrack was even more popular than the actual movie. and I believe, let me see, yeah, even to this day, you know, it's been out for a minute.

Even to this day, K-pop Demon Hunter soundtrack is the eighth most play project in the world. So last year, it was dominating. There was like top three for like the whole year, right? It was always either Taylor Swift, K-pop Demon Hunters, Morgan Wallen, just interchange those three. Majority of the time, that's how it was in 2025. So, you know, to my surprise, I didn't think they was going to actually acknowledge this group. I'm so glad they did as K-pop

um K-pop demon hunters won the first ever Grammy for a K-pop-related track and um it was golden from K-pop demon hunters specifically the song was golden that won a Grammy right

and it won for Best Song Written for Visual Media and you probably didn't know that because guess what they don't televise a lot of these awards I don't even know how many they actually televised um i think for the main telecast only nine was presented live and i guess it's allowed for more time for performances and ads so you know hot take i didn't watch your award show i was thinking to myself what do you mean you're only showing nine of the awards is somebody who covers every single

genre i want to see every single award show uh every single award announced in the award show but i forgot you know you have advertisements you have performances you got to pay the bills right so When it comes to what I really look forward to, that basically was happening throughout the whole day. Because if you don't know, as far as the pre-show, Grammy, well, Grammys basically ran the whole day. And, you know, another tidbit about me. That was actually my birthday. You know what I'm saying? So, you know, talk about having birthday plans throughout the whole day.

I was just glued to Grammy Up Days and who was winning. So I definitely paid attention. I just didn't watch because, you know, the main telecast, all the awards that I really cared about, they passed by that time. So shout out the K-pop Demon Hunters for winning best song written for visual media, even though it wasn't televised. It was a monumental accomplishment as I don't think K-pop artists are even recognized at the Grammys. Like, I'm talking about winning. Like obviously you could get a nomination which, you know, we still, hey, Oscars, we're still looking at you. You know, just because you gave sinners the most nominations ever or whatever, they better come away with at least four or five.

I kid you not. I feel like they try to do what they did with the color purple, give you all. all type of nominations and don't win any of them. It was like, hold on now. What's the purpose of that? What's the purpose of giving us all these nominations if you're just going to snub us on every single award? So anyways, when it comes to BTS, it's kind of like the same thing.

Like, they're just very excluded from the Grammys. And I just cannot figure out why. I just cannot figure out why. So shout out to K-pop Neiman Hunters for winning Best Song Written for Visual Media. As far as other K-pop acts, I mean, no traditional K-pop act has multiple wins. I mean, BTS has zero wins, but they are the most. most nominated with five. Rosie and Black Pink, I think they have nominations, but no wins as of right now.

So K-pop Demon Hunters is literally the most acclaimed from a winner standpoint when it comes to K-pop. And that should show you how big of a moment K-pop Demon Hunters was for the year of 2026. So shout out to them once again. And of course, for everybody who supports me from different genres and things of nature, They like me who they like me while diving to Aladdin for the people who like when I dive into K-pop For the people who like why I dive into pop hip-hop I appreciate all of y'all and guess what we're gonna keep on going So when it comes to the award show that's supposed to acknowledge all of these notorious mass effect

artists I think they did an okay job obviously you can't represent everybody Morgan wallace at the hard ER Drake won't even submit his music only time His music gets nominated is when somebody else submits it because if it's a collaborative album or track, the other artist is like, hold up now, I'm not beefing with the Grammys you are. So party next door, 21 Savage, sometimes those tracks are, I don't know if the album,

but those tracks would get nominated for a Grammy because that side of the album submits it, like 21 Savage for her loss or party next door for some sexy songs for you. So even though Drake will never submit, well, I'm not going to say never, but as of right now, he's definitely, you know, intensely beefing with the Grammys and some other conglomerates. So, you know, hey, pray for him, man. Is it okay, I got my dope on me?

Safe to say they try to step on all his dope. Anyways, the weekend, he's another one that's beefing with the Grammys. And I will say, objectively speaking, I don't think it's as much of a snub as the album with blinding lights was. Like when that album came out from an objective standpoint, and you already know, I'm a huge weekend fan. He had my favorite album of last year. So when I'm saying, I don't think he was snubbed this year, like I keep saying, Grammys look at the objective metric.

And even though the weekend was selling phenomenally in 2025, he was not towards the top. And nobody really talked about the album in a high quality level except for me. I don't know too many people out there that was covering hip hop and R&B saying that the weekend put out phenomenal album i think i was the only one that was my favorite album of 2025 and people just act like it don't exist so when it comes to not dawn aflm not that one when it comes to after hours yeah that's the one that's when they all went down when after hours came out and he basically got the super bowl performance and he was nominated at the grimmies basically apparently behind the scenes you know allegedly took this with a grain of salt they didn't want him to they didn't want him to perform

at the super bowl um they they told him to pick one i think either perform at the Grammys or perform at the Super Bowl. And for some reason, that was like an ultimatum. So now the weekend and the Grammys are forever beefing. And that's why you don't see any weekend on any type of nominations list because he doesn't submit his music. So ever since 2020, they've been beefing. So they've been trying to amend the relationship.

But for some reason, Grammys just do not like the top Canadian artists. So maybe Grammys really feels like Kendrick. And that's probably why he gets all these awards. you know they really say it to themselves you know what these canadian artists guess what they're not like us man but then you know what i'm saying i was like damn look at the state of hip hop like what's going on anyways um if you was wondering as far as some of the exclusions on the biggest notorious mass effects out there that is the reason for it for drake for uh who else um the weekend for morgan waller saying the hardy are now when it comes to taylor swift she missed the eligibility

period uh period so she will be glazed to you know what in back um and in the 2027 Grammys. But as far as this year, I believe she missed the eligibility period because she didn't drop an album last year. I don't think so. Let me see. So, I mean, of course she dropped last year.

I meant like, as far as the eligibility period, like the Torture Poets Department, I don't know, I guess that could have been part of the 2025. I guess they could have been a part of this word show. Oh, that, was, I actually don't know why in the world Taylor Swift wasn't nominated at all. I'm trying to see what up

I'm trying to be a W tech guy let me do some Mickey research right quick Taylor Swift and Grammys 20 25 or 22 or 26

technically all right so when it comes to the basically the biggest gangster in the music industry I did realize that she wasn't there so I don't know why she wasn't nominated

and she didn't attend because you know of course if a huge artist is not winning she's not going to be there at all that's just how I've come to realize that superstar is act. If Kendrick Lamar only won, like, let's say two out of his nine awards, and it was like one of the big ones, he wouldn't have shown up to like the end of the

award show. So that's why he was there for majority at the time. But as far as Taylor Swift, she didn't show up at all. Okay, so I think they're saying that Taylor Swift didn't have any eligible music for this Grammy Award show. I don't know. What about the Tortured Post Department? About the tortured post.

this department because that would have been for this one right or maybe it was a 2025 one because it came out April 19th 2024 it was fully eligible for 2025 oh I'm tripping okay so I guess you did have a little break um let me find eligibility period because if she released back-to-back years but she missed the 2025 award show oh I'm tripping okay so that's how it worked so torture post department was eligible for the 2025 Grammy Awards but when it comes to the 2025 Grammy Awards but when it comes to the 2006, I think the latest album missed that one. So let me see. What was the eligibility period of 2026?

Because if you look at it, back-to-back years, 2024 tortured poet apartment, 2025, The Life of a Showgirl. I assume she's not going to drop an album this year, but you never know. Because, you know, she is on top. Every time she drops the album, she's on top. So it's like, you know, it's just like an infinite glitch, money glitch for her right now. So the life of a showgirl came out October 2025. I believe that definitely missed the eligibility period.

Let me see if I could find this right quick. So when it comes to the Grammys, 2026, October 31st, 2024 to October 30th, 2025. Yeah, so she missed that. So that makes sense. Okay. So she's not even eligible, which makes sense. So she took a hiatus, right, from just dominating the Grammys. Because if you don't know, I mean, they love Taylor Swift.

Taylor Swift's one of the most awarded artists, I think, in Grammy. three in my let me see top 20 most awarded like I say you know we try to we don't try to spread fake news over here we try to stick to the analytics you know based off my name the top 20 most awarded Grammy artists should I do all time or would that be too much because Taylor Swift would have to be top 20 all time at this point so number one's Beyonce of course uh where is Taylor Swift Taylor Swift is not on this list at all when the world Top 50. She's not on this list at all.

You see a bunch of people like Quincy Jones, Kendrick, Jayzie, Vince Gill, Kanye West. Let's see. Taylor Swift has a total of mini, Grammy. Okay. Okay, so she has 35 wins. So that is a lot. She's outside the very top tier. Let me see.

I know the Swiftie's loving this right now. deep diving to Taylor Swift while Kendrick on the screen. So Taylor Swift has 14 when the world? Oh, Beyonce has 35. I'm tripping. Taylor Swift has 14. So she's well below, like 20, 28. Okay, so she's like in the top 30.

Top 30, top 40. Dang, I thought you would easily be in the top 20. Oh, I guess not. There's a lot of composers and conductors in the top 20. So that's probably why. Anyways, yeah, Taylor Swift wasn't at this award show, and that's why. The eligibility period for the 2026 Grammys,

the life of a showgirl fell outside of that dropping October 3rd 2025 so anyways um getting back into other details especially at the Grammys the main thing you need to know is that there was a very interesting moment where they was announcing record of the year and they basically said Luther Vandros I believe and I don't know if that was on purpose because how in the world do you mess up one of the major awards like maybe the nerves kicked in or whatever but Vandros is nowhere on the actual title for the song. Maybe the credits, but I know that little card that they gave whoever, what was the name, Cher or whatever,

giving her that card. I'm pretty sure it didn't say Vandros anywhere on that card. How in the world do you just end up saying Luther Vandros when acknowledging Kendrick and says, I don't know if it was on purpose to slight them or what, but I just, I thought that was another big moment. And of course, Trevor Noah had a lot of, you know,

very interesting moments as when it comes to comedy, being knowledgeable and high IQ, I think leads to the best comedians. And, you know, it may be a hot tape, but I believe Trevor Noah is one of the more intellectual people in the field of just commentating in general. So whenever he's hosting the Grammys, he's saying a lot of different things that he knows. He's speaking in Spanish. He's talking about the current state of the world. And I believe his jabs at Trump, his, you know, his back and forth with Kendrick, which I believe he, I think I have it right here. I mean, he was talking about, uh, Kendrick being at the award show.

So welcome back. Once again, I can't show it because, you know, the Gramby's debut tripping. So I'm just going to let, I'm just going to play the audio. The most nominated artist of the year, Mr. Kendrick Lamar, everybody. That's right. Nine nominations this year. Congratulations. And that is all I'm going to say.

Congratulations. I actually thought about writing a few jokes. roasting you, but then I remembered what you can do to light-skinned dudes from other countries. Yeah, me and my delegation are still recovering from the pain. So, uh, also welcome. And that's why, you know, to me, I think that's a fire joke. But then, to the rest of the people out there, they was not feeling that at all. But then, you know what I'm saying?

I was like, damn, look at the state of hip-hop. Like, what's going on? So, yeah, I don't know. I guess people weren't feeling Trevor Noah's jokes. Like I said, I ain't watched the whole show because, you know, I don't like how there's only nine awards shows at the main telecast. Like, what's the point of why? watching the show just for ads and stuff like I actually dive into every single genre I want to see

every single award being one and people walk up there and give their speeches but if if that's only happened in nine times and a three hour show I could kill us so when it comes to um Trevor Noah I don't know exactly why people was upset with his performance I think it's probably because uh him going at Trump I think that's a a huge topic especially with the ice rays going on um him being anti ice you know because you know Trump one somehow. You know, it wasn't just random bots voting for Trump. Somebody wanted Trump in office. So when it comes to people wanting Trump in the office, I don't know if people was upset by him going at Trump because, you know, Nikki came out, basically called him gay,

which, you know, that's a crazy, you know, like, is that supposed to be an insult? Like, does Nick, Nikki not know her, does she not know her fan base? My tripping. Anyways, um, so Trevor Noah, I think he did phenomenal, but of course if you watch the whole show, maybe you have to let me know where he messed up on because I, I saw, saw him singing in Spanish with Bad Bunny, taking hilarious jabs at Kendrick. Now, I will say the Justin Bieber clip I saw, which I don't have it on here, because I'll have to show it to show you all, Justin Bieber's reaction. But Justin Bieber's reaction to Trevor Noah coming over there,

yes, it's safe to say Joe Button may be white. I mean, Joe Button. Justin Bieber, yeah, that's crazy. Justin Bieber may be white, but I think he wanted to catch the fade for Trevor Noah. I do not know what the reason was. But anyways, so it's been. said overall you know because this is basically the overview and best believe we're going to dive into every single uh um winner right well the ones that i know about you know of course we're going to

skip some of the techno stuff and you know the edm stuff no disrespect to y'all i just you know even though i cover every genre i just can't do it man i just can't do it so when it comes to edm we're going to skip that part but so overall kendrick swept right and i he technically didn't sweep because he was nominated for nine and there's not me hating i'm just objectively he did not sweep a nominated for nine he won five that's not sweeping by the way uh so he had five grammies uh and then when it comes to that was it five it was it five i'm tripping uh kentric lomar won won't what's kentrick lomar i had his uh 2025 wins up that's why that's why i got a little confused but okay he did win five so he won five again all right so in 2025 he won five and

2026 he won five again maybe clays in this minute I ain't okay um Ketchie glomar won for record of the year Luther well let's go backwards he won for best melodic rap performance with Luther best rap performance with chains and whips best rap song with TV off best rap album with GNX and best in record of the year uh for

Luther and this is his speech for that so I'm gonna play that right now oh that's Billy Alex my fault we're gonna get to her in a second And where in the world is size seven speech? I'll come back to the most nominated artist of the year. Mr. Kendrick Lamar, everybody. I think I could probably go to his, the best rap album.

Oh, hold on, let me just go to my site. I know I posted it somewhere. Yeah, here we go. So this is his speech for our best rap album. Once again, go to my, you know, make sure to follow my social media because I do post little clips. Even though I didn't watch it, I was, you know, keeping up with it. What's up?

It's hip hop as usual, man. I'm not good at talking about myself, but I express it through the music it's an honor to be here pile of the clips like these are my brothers to be that man hitting the mic with the trophy in the world in this category what's up push man i was like is kentrick nervous you know that should go to show you could be a master a master you could be putting on a master class of putting like putting words together and guess what you could still get a little anxiety from accepting your award that's crazy you guys time I tell you this, hip hop is going to always be right here.

We're going to be in these suits. We're going to be looking good. We're going to be having our folks with us. We're going to be having the culture with us. So I appreciate y'all. God is the glory. Love y'all. So that was a speech for winning Best Rap album.

And here's the speech for winning our record of the year. We're going to do just that. No cursing. And we're going to make sure that. So basically, if you don't know the backstory behind Luther, the only way it was cleared is if they didn't. and a curse. So that's what he's talking about. This song represents love. So I want to appreciate and give thanks to Sizzler. I just want to say thank you to Kendrick for lifts me up.

I just am a small part of this record. But what I really want to say is, please don't fall into despair. I know that right now is a scary time. I know the algorithms tell us that it's so scary and all is lost. There's been world wars and been plagues. And we have gone on. We can go on. We need each other. We need to trust each other and trust ourselves. Trust your heart. We're not governed by the government. We're governed by God. And I thank you so much. So God bless you.

That's how I want to say. That's right. So with that being said, we're going to continue to move like that. Luther Forever. Cheryl, thank you so much if you're out there listening, watching. We appreciate you at bottom of our hearts. Luther Forever. Thank you all.

All right. So with that being said, that's the person who won, well, you know, Kendrick won record at the year, you know. So, hey, maybe he could take another shot at Drake. You know what I'm saying? Maybe win another Grammy. Shepherd. Oh, my fault.

know. I'm just letting y'all know. You know, if he's not going to take a shot at Drake, best believe his next album, his next single, I don't know if it's going to get all those wins as far as five of them. You know, you may call that hate, but they had all type of opportunities to give Kendrick Lamar five Grammys, you know, and they chose those opportunities to give McLemore the win over Kendrick. So, you know, I'm just letting you know what type of respect is pulling your name after you diss to Canadian. So with that being said, Um, is that to say? I think that was basically, oh yeah, Bad Bunny. So I think I had Bad Bunny up here. And, uh, this is Bad Bunny acknowledging ice, you know, basically saying Ice Out. Because, you know, he doesn't really speak in Spanish for some reason. I mean, he doesn't speak in English for some reason unless he wants to. So, you know, just is him a fully English speech, by the way. Try to see if I can find this. Okay, so this is Bad Bunny. Everybody just give him a standing ovation.

We're not savage. Oh, hold up. I missed the part. I say, before I say, thanks to God, I'm going to say, eyes out. You know, I agree with the sentiment. I feel like it was a better way to say that. Maybe I'm tripping. You know, you get a whole stent ovation.

We're not savage. We're not animals. We're not aliens. We are. humans and we are American. I don't know why it's so low. Also, I want to say to the people, I know it's tough to know,

not to hate on these days. And I was thinking sometime we get contaminated. I don't know how to say that in English. So he tried to do it. He tried to do it. He can't get through the whole thing without, you know, but hey, you know, at least he's letting you know that he can speak English whenever he want to. Let's believe that Super Bowl performance

going to be all Spanish. The hate gets more powerful with more hate. The only thing that is more powerful than hate is love. So, please, we need to be different. If we fight, we have to do it with love. if yeah we don't hate them

we love our people we love our family and that's the way to do it with love don't forget that please thank you thank you god and thank you that's pretty solid so you know as far as

you know it seemed like he was I'm not gonna say he was coming off the top I do believe he had this bullet points things he was wanting to hit but he didn't pull out a phone he didn't have anything written down so I think overall that was a pretty solid speech from bad bunny you know once again winning the biggest award

in my opinion at the grimmies which is the best rap uh the best album in general so album of the year i think is the biggest award and for him to win that and give that type of speech you know kudos to uh bad bunny you know what i'm saying kudos to him turning down my thing so it's not too loud all right do we go all right so um getting into the rest of the hilarious outings of grammies before we get into this full list black boy max you know i had to do it this man was getting disrespectful left and right so for some reason this man thought because he was nominated with fred again i think that was his name that he wasn't about to get disrespected at the grammy award show and this is him getting disrespected right now which i don't agree with but i just find

it um i find it very hilarious if you saw what happened to constant edge just no black boy max you was next on the uh on the slaughtering board and they just they was trying to humiliate him for some reason. Oh, hey. Hi. Hi. I have Jamal and Jamal Roberts American Idol and Jalda. Can we get a shot? Are you with the Grammys? Oh, what my full screen at? You guys. See, that's the problem. What you mean? I'm with the Grammys. Now, I know you see my outfit. I don't have Grammy logo anywhere on my outfit. It don't say, oh, I'm working for the Grammys. My mic in the French to tell you what type of time I'm on. every content creator has this type of mic which you know me too you shout out you know by the way y'all can't even see why i'm pointing at so this mic on his uh chest this one i'm talking about

every content creator has that type of mic and when it comes to uh what he was doing at the gramees it wasn't like he was walking around artists or anything he was literally there talking about how his chat well he was i think he was talking to his chat at that point in time and why watch look his chat chat in the top left look at she's talking to him uh shot are you the grimmies we're you say? Is this the Grammy's camera? No. Oh, I'm sorry. You're guys. And I think honestly that she had no idea.

She just thought it was the Grammy's camera for some reason. Because if you think about it, I'm about to shoot her some bill, right? Because when Black Boy Max first got there, there was a security guard that basically told him, hey, you can't have a camera in here. So she's thinking to her, you know, she's thinking to herself probably, hey, if somebody has a camera, they're probably working for the Grammys, right? to catch different angles of the show. Because when Plight Boy Max first got there, I wonder if I had that. So when he first got there,

it was basically, they told him that he couldn't bring his camera in and he said that the person, the security guard was tripping because obviously he got clearance beforehand. So the worker, you know, because I've worked events before, right? So you aren't giving all the details.

Unless you're like the owner or the CEO, you're not giving all the details of the event. You just, you're informed on what you need to know. and that's basically it. So, let me see, security. Let me see. I think it's, uh, yeah, here we go. So this is the security guard right here,

basically telling him that his cameraman's not allowed. And it looks like it's the same area. So this is why I'm shooting her bell. I'm not acting like Grammages is just out here trying to humiliate him, even though that's how I came across. I think this is probably why. So here we go right here. Ready before, bro.

I'm going to say, what's up? So he said, you're not allowed to be on the floor. What are you talking about? Yes, he is. What the fuck? Come on, big, bro. Chill. You all that.

So basically, that's it. So, you know, Black Boy Max, he's pretty calm and collected. He was like, you know, he ain't wild out too much. But he was about to, right? So I'm basically shooting hers and bail because it looks like it's the same area. People are not supposed to have their cameras, right? Unless, you know, your, well, Plight Boy Max was allowed to, but most people are not supposed to have, like, official cameras like this.

So she thought that he was probably with Grammys. That's the only way that I could, you know, shoot her some bell because, you know, what she said, you know, it was kind of crazy. You would have thought she was playing them. But that's the reason. That's the reason I can get. No, no, this is Plague Boy Max. She's like, she's still trying to fake.

See, that part, I'm like, hold on now. I was like, hold on now. Now, I don't know if you're not, you know, put the puzzle pieces together, but he kind of laid it out for you right now. Like, hold on now. The Grammys? What did you say? Is this the Grammy's?

She has this the Grammys? No. And then of course, so she's probably thinking to itself, okay, what other establishments are allowed to have the cameras on set? So then she probably said, either. I'm sorry. I thought that's the Eater. No, no.

She's not Eater, though. She just keep. You guys. She keeps getting it wrong. Plake Boy Max is probably like, bro. I'm one of the biggest streamers in the world. And this is how you're getting treated. This is Plight Boy Max.

But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn. Bro, she went through like all the logical reasons for him to have a professional camera on set. And she still got it wrong. All right. She just walked off. She was like, you know what? I don't feel like playing this game no more.

I'll just go walk off. All right. And then Plague Boy Max, you know, oh, he's just having a light skin moment because I don't think it was that serious. Like, I think she literally thought he either worked for Grammys because he had a professional camera and you're not putting a heavy camera on that set. But of course, because before him, He was probably cleared.

Like I ain't gonna keep explaining. Y'all get the point. She just basically messed up. I told you, I'm not shit here, man. It's cool. You guys. He's so upset. This is like the equivalent of Kaisanae and Waleigh, but it's backwards.

It's now backwards. I told you, I'm not shit here, man. It's having such a light skin moment, bro. I don't think she meant to. think she's been any horror. You got work. That motivation. Clip all this shit,

check. Hey, they clip it up. Realistically, what I realized this, nigga, it don't matter. It don't matter. Jack squat, nigga, like,

nigga, get your own motion game. That man trying to process it in real time. I understand what he's trying to say. He basically, like, don't let these other award shows give you validation. And, you know, I wonder who said this beforehand.

Is it okay? I got my dope on me? I wonder who said this beforehand. While winning a Grammy, mind you, you know, the goat got up there. He's basically like, hey guys.

This award show should not give any validity to your artistry, right? The people who show up each and every day that support your platform and your art form, that's all that matters, right? That's basically what Plague Boy Max is trying to say, but, you know, he's so in his feelings, he can't even get the worries out. This man's seeing red right now. It all matter.

Shit, get your own motion, like it. Is that mean? Get your own shit. That's all he can come up with, boy. This man's seeing red. Make your own shit. He's ready to black out. tell y'all bro so that's basically it so you know it wasn't the biggest thing in the world i just

had to bring that out because that was one of the most hilarious out uh events that the most hilarious incidents at the grambies because i was like bro poor black black boy black boy max this man don't bother nobody he out there just getting confused for e news entertainment he getting confused for a work at gramees crazy anyways um so that was just a little funny moment at there at the uh at the grameys outside of music so now without further ado one of the biggest monumental moments as far as speeches did happen by the one and only uh billy isle and you already know what uh little yi already said about billy is shepherd all right but you know basically she she um was was going crazy for another moment so with this with this right here

here safe to say she gave a whole speech oh i forgot i can't show that okay i showed the plac boy max day i almost showed all the videos so yeah i can't show the uh grammy stuff but basically here is her speech for winning song of the year which you're gonna get to my sentiments on that in the second pretty shortly actually but I do want to give you her speech as far as what she said thank you so much I can't believe this everyone else in this category are so amazing and I don't even want to show y'all the egregious things that billy eyelish was saying to Elon Musk all I'm saying this she may have been on to something right but the way that she did she was very aggressive so she'd been on this type of wave so that's why I think this

speech went as far as it did as far as engagement because people are known Billy Alice is known for having these type of takes. I love you so much. I feel so honored every time I get to be in this room. And as grateful as I feel, I honestly don't feel like I need to say anything, but that no one is illegal on stolen land. The cutaways to artists who could not care less. My fault. I ain't going to say it, bro.

These superstar figures are saying the right. right message but they follow it up with shots from the crowd of people who are not they don't engage in your same sentiment and they over here just clapping away smile to just the fake as ever that's basically what I'm trying to say all these people fake bro I need to see actual action and not just words for more for more sales now when it comes to Billy Ilish obviously you know she has a track record for saying this time and time again and bad bunny which I said before with his Puerto Rico residency but the shots to the crown who's probably the reason some of this stuff is going on,

it's very, you just basically, my overall sentiment that these people are beyond fake. I just love the cutaways to people clapping. They can not care less, man. Yeah, it's just really hard to know what to say. She's not to be the eyelids, because she actually does care. I feel really hopeful in this room, and I feel like we just need to keep fighting and speaking up and protesting,

and our voices really do matter, and the people matter. and um i say sorry they cuss they cut something out i don't know what it was but they cut something out oh she probably said cuss word so much i can't believe this oh yeah she cussed again okay that's probably why they cut it out they didn't even let her producer say nothing dang that man just up there like well i guess it's eff me then billy ollie's ain't throw it to him one bit is he like a legendary producer anyways okay well all the funny moments that way it's not really funny but you know all the moments out of weight it's time to get into the actual list i told y'all this is going to have a uh this is official deep dive of the grammy's and safe to say we're going to go through every list every winner like

a kilo of mylie cyrus so with that being said uh let's start with everybody's favorite category best contemporary classic classical composition right if you wonder why i'm skipping i'm basically looking for the the categories we care about classical classical still all right well at least you i get to see the winners right don't don't say i ain't show you all all the winners. Even though we didn't deep dive into it. Classical orchestra. Hey, techno edium, they all get skipped. Oh, what's Big Fish? I don't know what Big Fish is. Super Mario, what the world? Let's see. Best Immersives audio album. Okay, that's what's up. Producer of the year, classical. I don't think nobody cares about that. All these classical stuff,

I kid, I kid you not, people don't care. Best historical album, best album notes. How in the world, you get a out how you get a win for album notes imagine imagine somebody just in the studio like hey we gonna get a grammy for this one boy i gotta i gotta put extra footnotes like what the world is how you that's how you get grammy nowadays anyways uh okay here we go best album cover i ain't gonna cap to you who in the world who need this album bro who made this an actual category i think somebody wanted to glaze Tyler the creator And they wanted to give them some type of award So they made up an award to give them

Now I have no knowledge On that sentiment Or I have no background information On that sentiment But I believe this is the first time ever Best album cover was actually At the Grammys I think I was looking at it

And one of the things I read Basically said that I don't know if it's on here or not I think it's the first It's the first time ever They've had Best cover let's see let's see

yeah don't quote me on that but I think I saw somewhere this is the first time ever they had this type of category in the Grammy so best album cover went to Tyler they created a shout out to him bro best recording package

okay best music film okay oh best music video now as far as best music video I'm not mad at it going to dochi shout to dochi

I don't know how many awards she has total, but all I'm saying is... But then, you know what I'm saying? I'm saying. I'm like, dude, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? And that's the literal. That's the literal use. Oh, hold of the literal use of that drop.

But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, 10, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? That's exactly what Oniqa Tanya Mirage is saying right now. I don't know who she was nasty towards. I don't know who Nikki Minaj made upset. But the people that are getting champion above Nikki, because I believe Nikki has like zero Grammy wins.

right the people that are getting championed over her i just i just find it interesting but like i keep saying i like doche and i think she should have won anxiety for best music video but you're always going to run into that rhetoric whenever i whenever one of the goats of rap doesn't have any Grammy awards right it's almost like they're excluding her from the history books and based off what i've heard behind the scene it's because of her attitude towards everybody really so Nikki can be kind of a hard person to get along with. So let's just leave it at that. But shout out to Dochie for winning Best Music Video.

Best song, ready for visual media. Ladies and gentlemen, we are finally here. K-pop Dima Hunters, one for Golden from the soundtrack, K-pop Demon Hunters. And you already know my favorite track from the soundtrack is your idol. I think that one, especially once you watch the movie, the way it was placed, makes you like even have more appreciation for it because your idol is a straight fire track just straight up heater and they have multiple bangers on the album so golden to you know that's the most successful one as far as when you look at the charts i think as of right now it's still on the charts and it came

out last year so when it comes to golden it's still the fourth most played track in the world crazy so anyways it definitely needed to win something uh the soundtrack needed to win something so i'm not mad at it winning best song written for visual media i know what y'all say Hold on now. How you're a black man not advocating for sinners. But guess what? When you cover the entire genre and you come to realize how massive of effect K-pop demon hunters is having and then you dive deeper to you and then you come to realize,

hold on now. I'm actually enjoying the music. And then you come to this conclusion that I believe it should have won. Best song written from Visual Media because I believe the song came to enhance the movie. and without the songs, I don't think the movie would be as good. I can't say the same for sinners. Anyways,

because Senors is immaculent. I don't know if my point is getting lost in translation. Centers is a phenomenal movie. K-pop Demon Hunters is also a phenomenal movie. And I think majority, if there was a slice of the pie on why it was phenomenal, I think at least 60% is because of how great the songs were. Seners is going to be a great movie regardless.

K-pop Dema Hunters, I think it's literally centered around these songs. So anyways, hopefully that makes sense. Best score soundtrack for video games. Oh, hold up now. Not music and video games coming together. Shepard. I wonder who thought of that. Who thought

of that first? Shepard. Just look at the state of gaming. Like, what is going on? That's crazy. So anyways, as far as music and gaming coming together, you already know I'm highly ecstatic. As far as to see who in the world they listed and guess what? Guess what? You guys.

See, that's the problem. I don't know where I need to go. I don't know what website I need to fill out. But at this point in time, I do believe I probably qualify to be a Grammy voter. And I know that sounds crazy. But when you really look at the totality of notorious mass effect, especially all the genres recover being one of the biggest music platforms on Spotify currently, safe to say, I am so knowledgeable about certain genres and, of course, gaming that y'all got

bring me on. Like at some point in time, y'all need somebody who actually can deep dive into music and gaming to vote for these type of things. Because who in the world told you to put Avatar Frontiers of Pandora on here? Whoever told you to do that, just kick him off, right? Hell divers, too, I'm not mad at. Star Wars outlaws, even though it didn't sell well, I'm not mad at. Who in the actual made Sword of Sea, not only be nominated, but actually get a win? Shepard, just look at the state of gaming. Like, what is going on? So whenever I'm looking at the state of gaming,

and I've covered it thoroughly in the year of 2025, Sauri to see never came up in any conversation. All of these other games came up. Indiana Jones apparently was great from every aspect. Hell Divers 2 still has a core audience to this day. Star Wars outlaws was an egregious flop out the gate by Ubisoft. One of the worst fumbles of a popular IP I've ever seen in history, right? First ever, Open World Star Wars game, and Ubisoft completely fumbled it, right?

Avatar Frontier's a Pandora. I'm not going to cap to you. I don't really bring these guys up that much. No, I'm joking. If you watch my podcast, you already know. I'm a huge fan of RDC. Let me see, RDC Dillon offstream. So he was playing, he was literally playing this game, right?

This is what they had to say. And then, mind you, they was actually getting sponsored. So let me see if I can find this right quick. Here we go. Yeah, here you go. So Ubisoft is sponsoring the stream for real. man, you can get this game on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, bro. Make sure y'all click the link in the...

Mind you, Mark is currently flying around as a butterfly right now. This is a sponsor stream. He can't really say nothing negative about it. Panel. Please click the link in a panel. Y'all download the game yourself. Yeah, we'll pick it up. Man, I'm going to play this off stream, man.

We're gonna... And ladies and gentlemen, that's when history was made. Shepard, just look at the state of gaming. Like, what is going on? mission up off stream. The pulse is coming from the balloons. What's up, Dave? Hey, look at the

comments, bro. Then the camera died. See? You know your camera ain't dead. Anyways, y'all get the point. He's playing Avatar flying around as a butterfly. This game is completely atrocious. So, when you're talking about the best score of soundtrack for a video game,

I'm not going to lie to you. We do have to put the overall package into some type of consideration, especially when we're talking about this because this is like if K-pop Demon Hunters made some type of trash game put their soundtrack on it and then now they're nominated. This is not the same correlation but I'm just letting you know

how egregious the avatar game is in general. As far as the soundtrack it shouldn't even be on here. So if I was to replace it let me think as far as this year. Yo, what in the world? Where's Expedition 33? Nah, bro, get this list out of my face.

bro. Just look at the state of gaming. Like, what is going on? Well, the Grammys, bro. Hit me up. Give me the website. I got to fill out, bro. Just, hey, you need actually cultured people.

You know what I'm saying? I'm not going to cap to you, bro. Where is Expedition 33? Get this all the way out of here. What? That's crazy. Anyways. Yeah, that's actually wild.

That's like, I was thinking of that. Dang, what should I replace you? I was like, no, bro. Get that list up out of here. All right, best score for soundtrack for visual media. including film and television now admittedly i'm not the biggest movie or tv show connoisseur right i watched that for uh superhero stuff so as far as this i don't really have nothing to say about it uh uh but shout to sinners you know um ludwig uh let me see what all was uh sinners i guess so i had to be only

movie i mean music huh so yeah shout to the uh whoever this is ludwig uh gorasan one the world watch the three s's must a pose of gorse son there we go that's how you go anyway But best score sound trick from visual media. He got that. You know, shout at the sentence, man. Okay. Let me see. Medications.

Meditations, not medications. Oh, my goodness. You guys. I got to learn how to read, man. I ain't going to care about. I need constant to teach me expeditiously. Anyways, best audiobook, narration, and the best audiobook. And storytelling recording.

Meditations, the reflections of his loom, his holiness. The what in the Dala Lama? That's, what? Isn't that what? Is it? Rocky was rapping about literally A set Rocky had a bar and this is the only way I can relate to this. Asaq. Rocky had a bar

he said, y'all asked me why I didn't drop only goat to have a llama. I was like, hold up. You guys. See, that's the problem. I was like, my brother. You're not gonna, you're not gonna address the, you're just gonna. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's

going on? I forget what track it was off of, but it was like, it was like a, a very interesting line. Like how in the world do you address or do you rebut y'all asking why I'm not dropping, right? And I basically say only goat with a llama, friendly

reminder. My baby mama Rihanna and he went on to say some stuff that was flawed, but I was thinking to myself, he didn't address the point at all. I know that ain't who I think it is. Anyways, but shout out to ASEF Rocky. That's the only way I can relate to this list. I don't know when the world is is happening on this best audiobook.

So, um, yeah, but that's been said didn't Russ put out a book that's what I can say Russ should have been on this list shout to Russ Trevor Noah I know that ain't who I think it is I know that ain't who I think it is see I was just about to skip past this list and then I saw Trevor Noah's name on the nominee list now listen here Grammys you know they always say to shoot for the moon so if you if I ever host the Grammys safe to say if I'm nominated for award give me that I know that I ain't who I think it is.

I ain't do all these hours of prep to get in here and kill the hosting just for you to give this award to somebody else? I know that ain't who I think it is. Next time, my host the Grammys, y'all better give me every single award I'm nominated for it. And I don't care if they call it by it's because guess what? It is.

And so what? But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like 10. That's crazy. If I was Trevor, no, I would have walked off on the spot. When did this is this happened in the midst of the day? As soon as I saw this, I would have been like, well, I lost guys, came down with a sickness.

I can't host tonight. sorry get somebody else anyways um all right uh best comedy album that's what's up uh best children's music album okay best new age you see best reggae album okay best global music album hmm global music global music i don't recognize anybody except burn a boy I don't recognize anybody else Actually I think I recognize this name I'm not sure though Anyways

Best African music performance Tyler won with push to start Who else we have? We had Burn a Boy with love DeVito featuring O'Male with you Eddie Kinzo In Moran-Mayton Win the world On

Ara How you said Arra? How do you say it? Arra star Is that you said? Aura Star featuring Whiskid. Um, that fucking music for a part. Um, let's see. So push to start.

I actually don't know. Let me see. When it comes to, I need a mic. When it comes to Tyler, she had a phenomenal song that, you know, admittedly, uh, Joseph Anthony Button put me on. And usually, you know, they never cover music. So whenever they gave me this Tyler song and it was straight up heat, I was wondering if this is what the,

if this is the album it was off of. So it was called push-and-start. It's not Chanel. I try to see. Was it Tyler? Body-go? Tyler Plus. Let me see.

Truth of Dare. No, that's not it. I feel like I would see it if I... Water Remix in 2020... In 2020? Bro, I don't know how in the world. Okay, I can't find it. But apparently there was a specific track I liked from last year.

Let me just go to my playlist. You know, Shameds Plus. you can actually find my playlist at the bottom of my link tree so let me see tyler oh it's it's called is it yeah that's a track uh that's a track from tyler that track straight up heat that's a that's a that's a heater right there okay it's not off any album all right so anyways um yeah i'm not mad at tyler getting this i think is it was basically just letting people know that she's not a one-hit wonder um to me i think well no because objectively speaking it's not like it was a smash hit but i think tyler is talented enough where

she should get these type of looks. And I told you, just because you sell a lot, does not mean you make the highest quality just because you don't sell. It does not mean you make an egregious trash, right? With Tyler, she wasn't sell her a lot, but I think with the track, is it in other tracks? I think she was showing us that she's still immensely talented.

So, but yeah, shout to her. As of right now, she has the 43rd most played track in the world with Chanel. And it's been on the trucks about seven weeks, so I think she has another hit on her hands. That's the only track in the top of 100. So as far as push the start, I don't really have too much to say about that. I'm not mad at her winning. I think Tyler is immensely talented.

And she was falling off at a certain point because, you know, she did have a lot of things, especially the way she was explaining her culture. And a lot of people wasn't getting it. So they was wanting to cancel her. And I think the understanding between both cultures is why Tyler may be an acceptance going forward. I'm not going to lie to you. That's as clear as I could put it. If you don't know what I'm talking about, just go to Tyler and Charlamagne, the guys, well, the breakfast club interview and just see how two coaches just completely aren't aware of either or.

So, what that means, best global music performance, Bad Bunny with, I don't know, where you said, EU? Is that you said? I don't know. I ain't mad that. Shout to Bad Bunny. Best Tropical Latin album. Now, Tropical is the thing that's throwing me off. What in the world does that mean?

Does it mean you have to have like winds or nature sounds? in the background while you're rapping or singing in Spanish. What is this is actually me? So anyways, shout out to Gloria Estefan. I think I've ever covered you, but hey, shout to you. Best Musica Mexicana album. Okay. Coran Leone. I've actually covered him before. Let me see. Yeah, I've covered him before June 11th and February

7th of last year. So shout to him. You see, Bobby, nope. Peola. No. Grupo Frontera. Oh, we've covered him a lot. Fraser Regina, Grupo Fontera. Best Musica Mexicana album. I don't think

Karen Leone would have been my first choice. I'm trying to think what album would I have given it to? Like I said, Paisal Pluma is my favorite artist. So I don't want to be biased and just say him because that's not how it works. As far as from a consumer standpoint, because I do listen to a lot of these Latin musicians,

by the way. when a dynasty come out oh no that came out uh december 2025 okay so that was even eligible um let me see who else do i really like uh fresza regita oh actually he's on here fresor regita is on here okay grammas i see you a little country a little country not respected so yeah i would have went with somebody like freser regida or pacoa so i mean pacoa pluma's latest album is ineligible and um Fredza Regita is on here. So, yeah, I'm not mad at it.

I like this list. And I'm not mad at Karen Leone winning. I've covered him before. Admittedly, I've never, like, deep dive into his music. So I can't say if it's a bad pick or not. But it seemed like they got it right for the most part. And Grupo Fontera is phenomenal. So, anyways, best Latin rock or alternative album.

What, or does that mean, man? what was that mean best musica urbana album bad bunny won that who else we have jondell is jondell the one with uh six nine don't know that's a person with six nine yeah that is her what my trip in relationship i don't know if that's actually her anyways um shout to bad bunny you just knew he was going to win a lot of these uh categories as whenever i covered the live music field interestingly enough bad bunny does not run mexico or spotify um as far as like the top

artist on spotify it's always like pezo pluma freda regita uh nat and vega i want to see it right now i want to see who's really running it right now um when it comes to the people running Mexico currently we have if i knew my ABCs it'll be a lot easier to find Mexico there we go all right uh yeah

pisa pluma towards the top named vagus towards the top so just like I said you know shout shout you know shout Um, Regulo. Regulo, have I covered that person? Let's see. Regulo? I don't think I've ever covered that.

Interesting. So that's a new artist. But yeah, you see a lot of Paisal Prima, Fredza, Regina. Bad Bunny really is not, he doesn't really dominate Mexico, which is very interesting. He does have tracks on here, though. I mean, let's see, which ones do you have? He have, I don't even know how to say these track titles. Ballet, Inol, Vitable.

I think as I said I definitely butcher that but that's his highest charting track in Mexico currently is it's the 31st most play track in Mexico so some people may think bad bunny just has a huge dominance in Mexico and he really doesn't you know he has a dominance on the entire world and of course in his um in a lot of other areas but when it comes in Mexico specifically he's not as dominance a lot of people may think um as far as the 37th most played track in the world that's what bad bunny has as far as deep t mf uh what else and he has another track in the top 50 with lay well la la con cion i think this is it and it's a newly uh inter track so yeah shout to

bad bunny regardless i think he definitely deserves this i think debby terramos photos from me listening to it i really enjoyed it and um bad bunny is just one of those type of artists where you can never go wrong with giving his album as an award because he's just consistently great especially with his melodies, his flows, even if you don't understand the language, you can just understand the feeling. It's kind of like, if people didn't know English, and they listen to like Afrobeats, right? It'd be like, the feeling the Afrobees gives you, even though you don't know the lyrics,

it's just such a great feeling, and it sounds phenomenal. That's exactly how I described Bad Bunny's album. Anyways, and, you know, other albums and songs I listen to that I don't understand the language, because I say, you know, just in case y'all are new. I say all the time that when I listen to music, I listen for the flows, the melodies, the structure of the song. And basically, outside of that, if I really enjoy it, I start to dive deeper into the lyrics and what it means. So that's basically my approach to songs where I don't know exactly what they're saying.

So that means said, Latin pop, best Latin pop album. So when it comes to this, we have Natalia La Forcade, I think is how you say? Shout out to Carol G. Rae Alejandro. I don't know who in order this man is. Who in the Natia Latin Pop? I'm trying to think Latin Pop. Latin Pop would be bad bunny, wasn't it?

What am I tripping? I don't know. I think Pop is like popular. So Latin Pop. Won't that be bad bunny? Maybe I'm tripping. But if I was going to, you know, to pick somebody else, I think they have a pretty solid list.

You know, I'm going to call them out if I feel like the list is not good enough, which I did earlier with the video game stuff, but this is pretty solid list. They have Carol G here, they have raw Alejandro here. So they have enough people representing the actual pop in Latin.

But, you know, as far as the winner, I don't know how they won, but whatever. Best Roots gospel album. Okay, okay, the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir. You already know they get into it. You know what I'm saying? Greens, beans, eggs, tomatoes. Shepherd.

Best Contemporary Christian Music album. okay we got israel and new new breed in the world caritos volume one i don't know what y'all need i don't know what y'all don't do with that shout to lecray being nominated again that man just going to be nominated every single time he put out something christian ain't i ain't going to live i'm lucray yeah grammies y'all got to give me more wins today that's crazy anyways um best gospel album uh heart of mind by darrell walls p j morton so if you're a huge gospel album fan out there Heart of Mind by Derailed Walls, PJ Morton, 1 as far as last year.

That's not what I'm saying because that would be completely ignorant. They do have Chris Brown on here, though.

I said Morgan Wallen not being nominated, I could care less. My brother, you can't say the hard ER. They think that just because your fans don't care and support you, that the Grammys will.

You guys. See, that's the problem. So shout out to Jelly Row for winning Best Contemporary Country Album with Beautifully Broken. Best Traditional Country Album. Shout to Zach Top. I think I've covered Zach Top. for.

Jack Toppe going crazy. I'll be listening to a lot of countries, if y'all didn't know. Right now, I've been listening to what her name is. Ella, Ella Langley, I ain't going to cap to you. That track is straightfire. I think it's, yeah, Ella Langley,

Best Country Song Let me see Best country song Bighting the list Interesting there's some Shibuzi out here Yeah Shibuzi's right here with good news You know what? Just because the AMAs were so

racist towards Shibuzi I would have This to Shibuzzi as far as good news Because good news is a solid track I like that It's a pretty solid track So you know AMAs said they was kicking Shibuzi How about the Grammys kicked the AMAs

By giving Shibuzi more country awards You know how about that So as far as this I would have gave it to Shibuzi best country duo slash group performance shibuzzi oh you guys they must have hurt me no just playing let me chill all right so uh yeah shout to shibuzi for winning best country duo slash group performance with a man with jelly roll as that track is straight is a straight heater and i'm not going to lie to you that's just justified you know all you country

artists that stood by and watched that man be racist towards shibuzzi Just know. This is why Shabuzis winning all the country awards over at the Grammys. Yeah, how about that? Anyways. Best Country solo performance. Shout out to Chris Stapleton. I've covered him before. Bad as I used to be from the F1 movie.

Oh, I heard the F1 movie went crazy. I still haven't seen that. I've seen that movie. But apparently F1 is like one of the more monumental movies of 2025. You have like F1. You have sinners. I'm just talking about life from an engagement aspect. You have Zootopia 2, of course.

That came out last year, right? I think so. Actually, I think it may came out at the top of this year. I regardless. K-pop Demon Hunters, of course, when it came, if you don't know, it was on Netflix, and it was so big, it went to theaters and still sold everything out. I'm trying to think of other movies that went crazy. Anyways, everyone went crazy, so shout out to Chris Stapleton.

As far as the other tracks, I can't think of any other track I'll give it to. If I was being ignorant, I'd probably just say Shibuzi just because. Best Musical Theater album. Okay, don't care about that. best contemporary instrumental album okay best traditional pop vocal album i've covered loffy before i believe is that you say name lofty it looks like luffy but you know obviously it don't make sense i haven't covered here before anyways uh yeah i don't care about that uh best alternative jazz album that's what's up no just play i can't be from kansas and i cover this uh best alternative

and Joey Calverro. Their album, a tribute to Benny Moore and Nat King Cole. One best Latin jazz album. Shout to that. Best Large Jazz Ensemble. Okay now, all right. We get into a lot of jazz.

I'm going to skip some of this. Christian McBride, Big Band, won Best Large Jazz Ensemble album for Without Further, A Do, Volume 1. Best Jazz Instrumental album went to Sullivan Fortner, Southern Knights. Best Jazz vocal album went to Samara Joy it's called Portrait. Shout to Best Jazz vocal album Portrait by Samara Joy, okay.

Best Jazz Performance goodness gracious. Went to Chick Coria, the Windows Live, and that's what's up. Alright, here we go. Best spoken word. Okay, now we can skip that. Uh-oh, uh-oh. I know that ain't where I think it is. I know that ain't who I think. That's what I was just saying. I know that ain't where I think it is. Anyways, best rap album went to size seven. Shout out to him.

Shepard. I mean, and went to the Kinshik Lamar. Shout out to him, man. Kendrake Lamar is showcasing that all of y'all out there that want to win record of the year or song of the year or just any rap category, all you got to do is just show up every four to five years and drop immaculate music. That's all you got to do. And be under Dr. Drake and take shots of Drake, you know, other stuff.

But, you know, that's all you have to do. So anyway, shout out to Kendrick Lamar from winning best rap album. All jokes aside. GNX came out 2024. So with that being said, it did fall in the eligibility period as far as an award show. So I'm not mad at it as far as it being nominated. But a lot of people probably thinking, how does a 2024 album in the, how is the 2020 album in the 2026 award show is because of the eligibility period?

So that being said, shout to Kendrick. I would have went with Glett God sort them out by the clips I just think overall it's just a phenomenal album from top to bottom I think Kendrick's album being so LA centric right after the battle kind of took away

from the moment Kendrick could have had if he would have put out like a solid solo album it just seemed like it was just a victory lap rather than a solo album that he's been working on for quite some time right the clips completely opposite it seemed like the clips was working

on this album for a minute so let god sort them out i would have went with that but i'm not mad at gen x it's still a phenomenal body of work i just don't think it's towards the top of kensi lomar's solo albums so it's shout to j id at least he got some recognition right i know that one person tried to disrespect you um outside as far as asking if you was like i don't know who they asked they asked that man so like it was something crazy they asked if he was like i forgot it was somebody he actually looked like i don't know if they asked if he was taller the creator as if you're somebody a little oozy i forget they'll basically be in disrespectful um but shout to you for you know because at least you got the last laugh being nominated for best rap album

even though you did win i still think it's great acknowledgement um best rap song went to kentric lomar tv off of course you had tg i f you had sticky um let's see okay and you had anxiety by dochi at birds don't see sing by the clips uh i guess i should have listed off the best rap album so chromocopia by tyler the creator god does like ugly for j id glorious by gloria let god sort them out by clips and the winner was kenserkumar g and x so shout out for that for shout to that for our shout to gnx from uh kendrick for winning best rap album now it comes the best rap song kendrick won for tv off uh uh uh TGIF was nominated for our Glorilla.

Sticky by Little Wayne and Glorilla was nominated as well. Glovella was on here twice, technically. The Birds Don't Seen was nominated for, you know, the clips and the anxiety by Don't You. Now, if we're really talking about best rap song, Sticky was a moment in my opinion. I think Sticky was, I think Sticky was underrated. Even though the HBCUs put a lot of respect on the marketing campaign as far as, you know, having their and play sticky. I can't say it's better than TV off.

I'm not even going to lie to you. The birds don't seem, it's too emotional. I would have chose a different song from, I would have chose like, who was that credit card song? I think it was called Fico. I would have chose that. That's like literally my favorite song off of the album.

That song starts off crazy and then it just keeps going. Well, really the whole album just keeps going. From the start to finish, they just immaculent flows and immaculate raps. just throughout the whole 40 minutes because that's how that's yeah that's as long as this album yeah fico i would have put it on here for best rap song but that's just me um so once again i would have

given it to the clips i'm not mad at them because you know right after winning one of the if not the greatest uh rap battle in the world i'm not mad at your next project just getting glazed to the moon and back like this because who they're going to glaze drake he don't even submit his music so i'm not mad at them choosing um kendrick over the clips but i would have definitely close uh chose the clips. So, um, Kendrick Lamar's song, TV Off One, Best Rap Song. Then we have, uh, best melodic rap performance. We have Kendrick Lamarst is the Luther winning.

Party Next Door and Drake. Hold on now. Is it okay? I got my dope on me. I said, what the fuck? I know, even though you don't submit your own music, you still get nominated because other people submit your music for you, hence party next door, you know? So, you know, shout out to him being one of the greatest artists of all time because even when you don't submit you still get nominated but then you know what I'm saying? I was like damn look at the state of hip hop like what's going on so with that being saying um obviously he didn't win because uh yeah the grammar not going for that um I don't know wonder world we majors what was that rhapsody you know I can't even disrespect Rhapsody Rhapsody Rhapsody she'd be she'd be rapping pun intended

she'd be getting to it uh wholeheartedly uh J ID featuring Todd Dulles line in black um proud of me Friday featuring Meek Mill Jay Z, bro Hey, come here Sean Carter, bro Hey,

come on man I know you got a lot of power in the hip hop industry But Meek Mill would never be relevant again You gotta stop You gotta stop We don't care how many times

You give him A Grammy nomination You putting him on his list I don't know I'm giving you all the blame for putting him on this list This list right here You know what I'm saying

Yeah, I don't know Jay Z's part of the voting board That man putting meek male on the list You know what he's doing, bro Meek Mill is over bro No more Grammys for you It's over man It's over

Especially for Best Melodic Oh come on man Jayzy bro I see you It has your name written all over it bro I don't even know if meek Mill signed to you And you acting like this This is egregious Who in the world?

If I was to change this out Bro Okay because first of all First of all We rap Grammies just act like Playboy Cartier don't exactly exist. That's first of all, I don't know what and the world's going on with that. The disrespect

to the weekend and future making music together, I think has to stop. I'm not going to lie to you. When the weekend and future makes music together, I'm not saying every time, but y'all may call me bias, because I did say the weekend had my favorite album of the year. And y'all saying this is a rap category, right? I just want y'all to go to a specific track by the weekend and future and tell me that it's not melodic, right? Or it's not melodic rap. As a specific track by The Weekend and the Future, it's called Enjoy the Show.

As far as the disrespect between that melodic rap and it not being nominated at the Grammys, I think is one of the most egregious snubs I've ever seen on my measly 26 years on Earth. So the reason why I say that is because instead of JZ pulling, and strings to get Meek Mill nominated for best melodic rap performance. You could give an actual hip-hop goaded song like Enjoyed the Show by the Weekend and Future a nomination.

And dare I say, I don't know if it should win against Luther. But I do believe personally, not I do believe personally, it's my favorite track. And I believe it should be on this list. So that's it. Either take Meek Mill off of here, that's really it. Because Rhapsody, she'd be rapping. JID, he'd be going crazy So yeah, Mignale got to go

And this is not even a song Hold up, this is not even a song I would choose for JID Who in the world is voting on this? The song that you should have chose Was the single that they put out For all the playlist, right? The specific track

I'm gonna find it Cause I know what track it was Yeah, the track where Earth Gain, The skate track If you wanted to listen to it on his album It's literally SK8 Straightfire With Sierra

in the Earth game, that should have easily been nominated for a Grammy. But I'm not mad at it because guess what? He's still nominated. So I'm just saying that's not the song or what it shows. Yeah, why I was me on this list. That's basically that's why I went on that whole weekend and future Tyray. Because if y'all are going to disrespect the weekend and future collaborations, don't have meek me on this list, bro.

That's too much. That's way too much. Anyways, best melodic rap performance went to Kendrick Lamar Luther. All right, best rap performance. not mad at it it went to chains and whims by push a t and uh kensi glomart so the other tracks on here you have darling i not mad at tv off anxiety and outside now hold up now another hot take and this one is from left field because as a drake stand y'all won't even think i come with this type of hot take right but if we're talking about rapping if we're talking about specifically rapping

even though I did say Pusha T's album Well the Clips album as a whole It's better than GNX From a rapping perspective What's the track? Reincarnated I believe

Should have been on this list Of best rap Performance Especially them looking at TV off as a popular track If we're talking about straight rapping right reincarnated is one of the best rap performances i've ever heard from kendrick and that's saying a lot

i think he's the best rapper of the modern generation so um man at the garden reincarnated and gloria now glory is more of an ending type of track but you know a end of an album type of track it's really just him ending off the album but reincarnated and man at the garden one of those should have been on this list i think it's reincarnated so not to get lost in translation this list instead of having 10 TV off on here, you should have put reincarnated, especially if we're talking about best rap performance, which I know y'all are as chains and whips by the clips won.

So I'm not mad at them winning. I'm just saying, Kendrick's reincarnated should have been on here instead of TV off. That's just me. So anyways, best R&B album. Went to Leon Thomas Mutt. Shout to him. You know what I mean, a legend in the Macon? Well, he's already a legend. I'm not going to like to you from the victorious, from the backyard against.

I mean, y'all didn't even know he had a long acting career and now with his musical output seems like he's gonna have a long musical career in of success especially um looking at the success that he's having right now because I do believe he's still on the charts I believe yeah mutt is still the 12th most played track in the world that's crazy be on the charts for 51 weeks crazy and as far as albums he's not on the list but you know hey maybe you know get a couple of superstar features I guess he already has features but I don't know maybe one day he'll get on that top 50 album list but um as far as the single mutt it's going

crazy i think mutt by far and away is going to be one of his like that that's it like you really i'm not going to say he can't replicate that or surpass it 51 weeks and it's still in the top 12 my brother like that's crazy that's a that's a bona fide hit so my shout to leon thomas that's actually crazy um yeah so best rmb album for that to go to leon thomas as far as mutt Not going to lie, it is very surprising. It is very surprising. I didn't see the album too often on the charts. Like I keep saying, just because you sell a lot,

does not mean you make the highest quality product. And just because you don't sell, does not mean you make straight up trash. But when it comes to the specific track, it was so far in the way, objectively speaking, from the album that if you're going to recognize a song, you've got to recognize the song. The album is not nearly as impactful as a song.

dare I say the song by itself may have put up more first week projections or first week numbers than the entire prior like if you had one song one song and it was mutt and then you had the rest of the tracks from mutt the album I'm telling you the first week sales mutt would have blew it out of the water I'm talking about the actual single so when I'm talking about Leon Thomas I'm not trying to discredit his name he definitely deserves recognition for creating one of the most monumental R&B songs in the past like three to four years but still as far as an album i don't think it's on that level but look who's see now i'm getting trouble because competition you know there's also a thing competition is also a thing and um yeah i'm not trying to get in trouble man shout to liam thomas man i ain't gonna cap to you the competition's not there so um yeah best rmb album with del lute y'all thomas much i'm not mad at it you know what i'm saying um best progressive rmb album i don't even know what in the world that mean what's that mean Best R&B song. Oh, hold on now.

I know that ain't who I think it is. Is it okay? I got my dope on me? Yeah, y'all know I be, hey, y'all know I've been covering this track like a key Lord Miley Cyrus. It's safe to safe. I know that ain't who I think it is.

Safe to save. I know that ain't who I think it is. Y'all know the drop I be playing. Yeah, y'all know the drop I be playing for this. You know, Kalani, she knew what she was doing. She dropped the interesting track called folded. And all us gentlemen out there was sticking to ourselves, this is the only thing we was thinking about.

Especially listen to that whole track. This is all we kept thinking about. We'll fold that up right now. We'll see. Don't look away now. Don't look away now. Don't get shy now. Get shy now.

We'll get shot that up right now. You know what I'm saying? Shout to Kalani. You know what I'm saying? And Kalani was out there looking like... Don't look away now. Don't get shy now. We'll fold that up right now.

Man, shout out to Kalani for winning best R&B song with Folded. Now, I did see Chris Brown actually attended the award show. So, you know, we actually have progress as far as the relationship, reconciliation of the Grammys and Chris Brown. But the main thing is, when you really look at it, this is a stack list. You have, yes, it is from Leon Thomas, overqualified from Duran Bernard. I can't even, hold up, I'm too old. Okay, I got to zoom in. Bernard, Bernard, there we go.

depends by Chris Brown featured Bracin Tiller which I think it depends had the strongest chance on upsetting Frode it and Heart of a Woman by Summer Walker Now very stateless I will say when it comes to

Fold it Kalani put up such monumental numbers objectively and from a subjective standpoint you know from my own personal opinion I think the song is beyond phenomenal beyond fantastic When you look at Chris Brown, objectively speaking, it depends, has been performing better than folded for quite some time.

And now, right now, it just surpassed. It depends as far as an objective metric. It's now the ninth most played track in the world, been on the charts for about 33 weeks. Chris Brown and Kalani's been going back and forth as it depends, has been on the charts for 26 weeks, and it's the 24th most played track in the world. So these are still bona fide hits from both of these artists. so I was basically just breaking it down I don't have no problem with this

you know shout out to Kalani you already know what I said shout out to Kalani man stop playing so Kalani won Best R&B song for Folded As far as best traditional R&B performance Leon Thomas won that For vibes don't lie

Another pack Well I don't know It's just a little crap baby That's basically that's the title of the track You know I ain't trying to disser So yeah shout to Leon Thomas There's this two wins in the R&B category well-deserved best arm people performance and i know i call chris brown the most talented person

of all time but leon thomas is mutt live from e npr's tiny desk being uh nominated right here i think that's a very specific version of mutt and i think that should have won no disrespect to calani no disrespect to chris brown leon thomas is a performer he's really an artiste so to have the mpr specific version of mutt on here they knew it there was doing i thought they was going to give it to leon thomas and i think they should have who in the world why is he why is jesson bhae bha on black history month on the world anyway i ain't mad at jesson bha didn't that jessiebebe would be on this list um yeah i think this show gave it to leon thomas but you know at the day i'm not mad at so shout to calani for winning best rmb performance with her track uh folded

you have best alternative music oh we're out of rap and bs sad day in history all right so i think it's basically it um let me see Best rock song, don't know back here, Best Metal Performance, I could cut less. Remix recording. Okay, dance, dance, pop, Best Electron. Okay, let's get to the big ones.

Come on now. Best Pop vocal album went to, Oh, Lady Gaga. Shout to that, yeah. That's what I'm so. You know what I mean? Hey, if the IRS is ever listening, just know, you know, I make a pretty penny

in his actual penny, like literally pretty pennies from this podcast. You know, I mean, like two, two pennies. a month in case the IRS is watching but the reason why bring that up is because they have to say my lady gaga coverage i'm not going to lie to you ladies and gentlemen that's that's really why i started to cover more uh genres because i was thinking to myself wow people from different walks of life as far as people who really specifically want to hear different genres they really support to the point where i was like let me start supporting more genres especially once i got posted by that k-pop

fan account it's safe to say it didn't stop there i kept you know covering different genres and all i want to say is in the year of 2025 lady gaga supporters i owe you one so i'm not mad at all as far as lady gaga went in uh mayhem as far as best pop vocal album not mad in the i'm not mad in the slightest and that's a huge category too you have subrina carpenter you have uh jesson jose july sires teddy swims right here like it's a stacked category list and to win best pop vocal album shout to lady gaga man one more time all right best pop duo slash group performance now this is the one that took the I think it took the world by storm but it definitely took me by storm I know that ain't who I think it is I know that ain't who I think it is as going off

of the lady Gaga coverage right now she's talking about Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga had a specific track titled die with a smile now of course I covered that and that come to realize I was like hold on now this man Bruno Mars has been putting up numbers for quite some time and the reason why say that is because the pop duo slash group performance is consistently consistently won by Bruno Morris him and Lady Gaga won it when he put out a yeah him and Lady Gaga won it last time the year before that him and Anderson Pack won it so this is the most surprising loss for me because literally having a a K-pop artist that you can shine a light on, right?

Along with Bruno Morris, who consistently wins every single award. You just won it with an R&B act or whatever Anderson Pack claims he is. You won it with a pop act with Lady Gaga. And now you're with a K-pop act. Safe to say, I thought Bruno Mars was about to pull a hat trick. And the Grammy said, Not So fast, Soldier. You guys. We got to give this award to Cynthia Arrivo and Ariana Grande.

But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the... Am I tripping? I know y'all ain't look at all these tracks on this list, except for Katzai. Who in the world? Man, now, I don't know if you've heard my coverage of Katzai. You know, they'll get real serious right quick. Basically, Katzai is one of the most egregious industry plans I've ever seen in the music industry.

Literally, the Chinese company or whatever they, you know, whatever they're called. Basically, they had a whole war show, right, from different regions. and took different regions that took the winners from those different regions and put them together as a group like black Chinese or what else

white I don't know man they had all different cultures right and all of a sudden all of a sudden right after all those people winning their awards show and coming together as a group they started to get Grammy nominations and their streams are through the roof you guys

see that's the problem I call Cap. Cat size is one of the most egregious examples of an industry plant. I kid you not. Like, people throw around the industry plant turn for Dochi, that same energy should be put on cat's side. This is the most egregious example of an industry plant. Anyways, so besides them, this is probably the most stack list I've seen.

Cizzo, Kendrick Lamar 30 for 30 straight fire track. APT by Rosie and Bruno Marr's straight fire track. Then you got K-pop Demon Hunters Golden. I mean, come on now. Do I have to come on now. I think Cynthia Arrivo and Ariad of Grandi would have been towards the bottom. Literally, they would have been one above Ketside as far as who I thought was going to win this. It would have went.

K-pop Demon Hunters, Bruno Mars, Rosie, and Sizz of 30 for 30. So this is not in my top three. And somehow it won Best Pop Duo slash group performance. Who in the world was voting over there at the Gramm? It's like, you okay with this? you satisfied with this decision I ain't know cap if I would have saw this bar

I would a veto I was like bro somebody didn't vote right let's do it again let's run it back run it back bro who in the world hey all y'all stand up and I want you to go to each and every song

and tell me why you like it and then when it comes to defying gravity I want you to finish why you think this is the best track out of all these lists out of all these other songs that's egregious

that's crazy I bet Bruno Mars was heated like if he would have lost the k-pop demon hunters he'd probably be like all right cynthia rivo and art bro come on man stop playing uh best pop solo performance

lola young and messy i think i've covered lolla before let me see i think i've covered yeah i covered her first um January well i covered the first time i covered her was january 17 2025 and of course the last time was

September 5th 2025 so we've covered her a good amount of times on this podcast I think um as far as best pop solo performance not gonna lie to you bro lady gaga i think she deserves it man why in the world would you give her the best album the best pop vocal album and i even give her one of the better performing tracks of her album am i tripping i just don't get it like how you win the the total package when you don't win the specific enhanced version of the package

i don't get it bro what yeah i would have gave it to uh lady god god got disease But this is also a pack list. I mean, pop is usually pretty packed as far as, you know, because it's the popular. So it's always pretty stacked because they're looking at objective metrics as well. So shout out to Lola Young for winning pop solo, best pop solo solo solo performance. I would have went with Letty Gaga and her track, Disease. Songwriter at a year. Now, these are the big awards right here.

Amy Allen won for writing APT by Rosie and Bruno Mars wrote what else is she write? I don't know what else you wrote Casey Musgraves Those are the country artists right yeah Wrote Manchild for Sabrina goodness gracious Tears for Sabrina

Wrote for Luke Holmes Tate McCray Wow that stack I ain't gonna lie I think this is one of the most like If you win this like you was just going crazy last year like to win a songwriter

of the year type award like that just means that you just are respected by a plethora of artists I mean look at everybody on this list if you're even on this list I think you're a winner Laura Veltz wrote for big X to plug Tucker Wetmore

Jesse Murf who else let's zoom in right quick Demi Lovato okay that's not that strong right I'll count to you Tobias just wrote for dejon

I think I'll ever cover that person name sounds familiar I guess I haven't wrote for Justin Bieber Bond Iver All right it's not that strong Jesse Joe Dylan wrote for Mega Moroni

Jelly Roll Kelsey ballerini Okay Edgar Barrera wrote for Bia Young Michael Carol G Carol G

Karen Leone Fereza Grupo Frontera Oh this is stack list right here O. G. Okay, so right for a country artist and Latin musicians, that's pretty solid. But anyways,

yeah, this one by far blows me away. I mean, goodness, Bruno Mars, specifically the APT track from Bruno Mars. Jesse Murph, Shabuzi, Duolipa, Tate McCray, goodness. And then you get into Casey McGraths, Karen Leone,

Sabrina Carpenter, twice. Yeah, Luke Holmes. Yeah, deservedly so. Yeah. A songwriter at a year, non-classical, went to Amy Allen. Producer at a year went to Surcut, Circut, I think that's how you say it. Abra-Cadabber by Lady Gaga. Let's see Coco Jones. Coco Jones, I've been seeing her everywhere.

People can talk about her being fake. I'll tell you, everybody's faking the industry. I don't know why people are surprised. Blake Mills, okay. Yo, Soundwave is on here for just GNX. Dang, they be, boy, I kid you now. They be doing tricks on it when they come to Kendrick. Producer of the year, not a class.

That's crazy, bro. All these different accomplishments, all these different producers. And then he's just on here with Kendry. Okay. All right, man. That's what so. Whatever. I don't even care about that one.

Best New Artist, Olivia Dean. Oh, wow. Okay. Now, really, I think just to be nominated for Best New Artist, I think that's the main thing. And I think that's why they have so many on here. But once again, not going to cap to you. Whoever keeps putting respect on Ketside name,

And don't acknowledge that they're one of the most egregious examples of an industry plant. I think y'all just doing the music industry of this service because you can't just put artists or put humans from different regions together, black, Asian, white, and just think that they're just going to have a cultural moment just because y'all say so. And y'all have a lot of money and y'all huge conglomerate. Katah is one of the most egregious examples of an industry plan I've ever seen. Now that's that out the way. Shout to Olivia Dean.

I think the Joe Button podcast was talking about her a lot. Was it her? Uh, let's see. Oh! On the world? Oh. Oh, okay. Okay.

Okay. Okay. Okay. Yeah, I see why y'all talking about her. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look. I see what I'm talking about it. Yeah, y'all ain't slick.

Yeah, y'all not slick at all. Okay. That's what's up. Yeah, shout to Best New, uh, shout to Olivia Dean for Best New Artist. Uh, Lola Young, Alex Warren. Me on top. How in the world? Nah, bro.

Nah, nah, nah, in the way. I think, honestly, I think Leon Thomas only lost this probably because he's been popping for a minute. And he's technically not new as in, you know, as in, I don't know. In Hollywood, he's not new. But in the music industry, the way he came onto the scene with mud, he's technically new as far as the heist that he's broken into. Nah, bro, they have to give this to Leon Thomas. We're in the world. You're telling me I got multiple wins in the R&B, best R&B, but you don't want to give me best new artists.

so other acclaimed you know longevity type R&B artists can lose to me in specific R&B categories but when it comes to best new artists which is this up incomers which we don't even know what type of history going to put out I'm going to lose to Olivia Dean am I tripping? Am I hating? Have I covered her before? Let me see. Olivia Dean.

Oh, I've covered her before. I'll cover her October 27, 2025. I wonder what I said about that track. See now I go back and listen to it. that. I'm not going to lie. On the cover of man I need, I thought it was a white woman. Huh. She was far away in that cover, though.

All, whatever. Yeah, man, I think it should want to Leon Thomas or Addison Ray. I'm not even trying to hate. I just think Leon Thomas winning a bunch of R&B categories and then not getting Best New Artist, it just doesn't make sense. Because right here, it's basically like in basketball terms,

right? It's like you're going up against solidified acts. in the NBA and you're putting up 30 putting up 40 but then you go to the rookie all-star game right and now they're acting like you didn't put up 30 and 40 against actually acclaimed athletes in the NBA that's the only way I could relate it just for you so um yeah it doesn't make sense I'm not mad at it but uh Leon Thomas should definitely won this I guess they just wanted to give another artist could they like Leon Thomas being glazed to the moon back with his track might we might as well give this award to somebody else and that's just not how it

works my brother like if that's how it works michael jordan winning won six straight like leon thomas easily ran last year when it came to the rnbc and he easily deserved uh best new artists so yeah that's crazy that's actually wild that's a huge snub um whatever getting back into the big awards uh song of the year went to wildflower by billy islish now guess we just snubbing today because how we go from that to this y'all see all these tracks that went up against analytic dreams video on spotify to see the video along with the audio just in case y'all just want to see the nominations um so they gave song of the year to billy isleish wildflower already played the snippet as far as her speech after winning um i don't know if they wanted her to say

that like i don't know if they like wanted her to go up there and say that that's why they gave her the win obviously probably not that's probably like a you know a minuscule way of looking at it but when you look at man child by sabrina carpenter luther by kendrick and scissor golden from k-pop demon hunters d tmf from bad bunny apt i mean this is a fire list i don't know how i don't know how in the world anxiety got on here by dochi um abrac and dabber by lady gaga yeah this is a stack list um multiple tracks off of here should have won it before bit the outlish i ain't even try to be disrespectful i'm just letting you know I would have had Luther win before that

because first of all Bad Bunny should have won this K-pop they never gonna get they gave K-pop demon hunters a win for best song written for visual media but I don't think K-pop's ever going to get

recognized at the Grammys like they should so yeah song of the year is probably out the question like I'm just glad they even got a nomination how in the world did APT get nominated for Song of the Year but then it lost Best Duo Slash group performance

How on the actual You got it I just thought of that See that's the problem So you're telling me Bad Bunny and Rosie Is is nominated for song of the year

But when it comes to the best Duo slash group performance It lost to a track that's not even on here What's on with them giving out sympathy awards I don't know if I liked that bro Ariana and Cynthia Arrivo they're going to be all right man give it to the real musicians well ariada grande is a real musician give it to the real songs that deserve it like these these pity awards i don't understand

first the pity award for cynthia riva and ariada grande then we have this one that should have went to leon thomas just because a song that's dominating from a objective metric does not mean that you should just go in a different direction because you're the grammies like um subjectively is up in the air. But when you look at a lot of these tracks, it was just too much mass effect. And the quality was also on a upper tier echelon, in my opinion, to where it should not be loosened out

to the likes of Wildflower by Billy Irish. Maybe I'm tripping. Maybe I'm tripping. Yeah, it would have been like in my top three on, like, as far as who should have won this list. I would have had DTMF, I would have had APT, I would have had Golden from K-pop Demon Hunters So that's three already

Yeah, that's crazy Um Yeah, but whatever, you know, shout out to be the outlish, hopefully she don't think I was hating. Alameda Year, so Alamette A year went to Bad Bunny, Debbie Taramas Photos, of course that was going to happen. Bad Bunny had a phenomenal 2025,

I'm not going to lie to you. So this is definitely rewarded somebody for dominating on an objective and a subjective metric in my opinion. So, um, the other nominees was Kromakopia,

Tyler the creator, uh, Mutt by Leon Thomas, GNX by Kendrick Lamar, um, mayhem by Lady Gaga, let God sort them out by the clips, man's best friend by Sabrina Carpenter

and swag by Justin Bieber. This is a fire list. I'm not mad at it. I'm trying to see who else, like, I'm trying to see if they're missing one. I think as far as album of the year, they didn't cover everything,

honestly. I think of somebody like they left out. I mean, personally, I like the weekend, but like I said, he doesn't submit his music. But Future, I guess, could have submitted that track from, you know, Enjoy the show, because y'all know that's probably going to be one of the rebuttals. The weekend doesn't submit his music. That's why Enjoy the show wasn't nominated. Future could have submitted that.

But, you know, he'd probably too lean down, perked out to you and submit stuff like that. I don't know, man. of the year, I think they got it right. They ain't okay too. And they got the nominees right. Yeah, man, shout out to Grammys. I thought they definitely have to get the big awards right, even though I don't know, nah, because they ain't get this one right.

Nah, I ain't get this one right at all. The song of the year, that was a misstep. But yeah, so shout out to Bad Bunny for winning album of the year with Debbie Tararma's photos. Now, we have the one and only record of the year. And ladies and gentlemen, I gotta bring up my highly, that the only, I'm not gonna lie to you.

This is one of my most impactful clips of all time, so I gotta bring it back up. Wait, hold up, how the world? I work right now. See, I told you I'm 26 going on 80. In your thoughts on Doc. Yo, I almost played the Jay-Z Harvey Weinstein clip. Let me see, here you go right here. That the only way you can win record of the year as a hip-hop music, Tell them dreams.

Record is if you dis Drake. What? Ladies and gentlemen, I'm done with the Grammys. I ain't gonna lie to you. Now, of course, not like us has, you know, technically it hasn't won the award. What in the world are we gonna do with our genre? What are we gonna do? We get record of the year is to diss that Canadian.

Wow. And with that being said, Dang. Now, that man was really won an answer, huh? Well, fast forward 2026, ladies and gentlemen, and guess what? Guess what? You guys. See, that's the problem

Safe to say Side 7 is back once again Now, no, was he Back in musical form? Of course not. He basically dropped the album and disappeared. He's going to be gone for like at least three more years. So when it comes to that,

Record of the Year had to be given to Kendrick Lamar Because guess what, he just finished Dis and Drake. This is the first project that he put out after Disand Drake. It's safe to say record of the year. Let's see if I can pull up the lyrics right quick. Luther, Genius. was on this I think it was 30 for 30 where he took those Drake shots let's see um I know it was just a regular sing song

yeah just a singy type song man that's all it was all it was all right so when it comes to Kendrick dissing Drake safe to say I think that's the only way he got this type of clout being a hip-hop artist I think this is the R&B track hot take I think it's an R&B track so I still think as a hip-hop artist you do have to dis Drake to win record of the year because of course not only is the attention being put on Kendrick for record a year because he just disdrake and he just put out an album right I think this is one of the songs that they could justify being slated for record at year because scissors on it they probably want to be like you know what not like us and his album is at a high quality level

and I just think hey y'all should just come out and say Kendrick Lamar's getting all this love all just glazing y'all doing absolute tricks on it. Shepherd. Basically, the Grammy voting committee is only glazing Kendrick like this because he dissed that Canadian. Is it okay? I got my dope on me?

But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? So as far as record in the year, I'm not mad at it going to Luther, but I'm just letting y'all know why Kendrick's getting glazed to the moon and back with five awards in back to back years. I don't think if you puts out

another album, it's ever going to get received like this because guess what the beef would have died down by then they would have been like you know what he's not distant kendrick his music actually not record of the year worthy right i think they'll just be like hey let's give it to somebody else you know uh voter's fatigue that's we're gonna call it really he just stopped distant drink um let me see so that's basically uh uh i like the list so far i mean once again anxiety i don't know why the world's on here Like, who thinks that's record of the year? Am I tripping?

Everybody else is fine, though. Maybe I would have added, like, push a T-clip on, I mean, a clips track from here. Maybe, like, Birds Don't Sing. See, this is the category I think it should be in, not some of the rap categories it was in. But Record of the Year, like, Birds Don't Sing was about the passing of the mom from Push His Side and the Passing of the Dad from Malice's Side. And I think that was a phenomenal track. So I thought that should have been on record at the year.

But, you know, they don't really respect the art for him. So there's another R&B track that won last hip hop track. Technically, that one was a disc track towards Drake. And the last rap track that won was also a disc track towards Drake. And now here comes a hip-hop artist again to win record at a year until you realize. Oh, this is the person that diss Drake last year. Saddened history. But then, you know what I'm saying?

I was like, damn, look at the state of hip-hop. Like, what's going on? So I'm not going to lie to you. That's basically it. You know, as far as long-form content, you know, breaking down the gram is like a key little, Amiley, sorry, it's safe to say, I think we did it.

What Joseph is saying, I think we've done it. And shout out to all the rappers out there. Sure trying to make it, but unfortunately, I have to let you know. You know what I'm going to? You know what I mean? But if I got something that still works, why about it? You know what I'm saying? Sometimes it's not worth it.

You feel me? I don't have to go to Costco. Go somewhere. Sometimes you got to go somewhere, because the charts ain't one of them you know what i'm saying but then you know what i was like damn look at the state of hip hop like what's going on basically i was looking for other stuff you know i basically gave you all the overview of a lot of things um rosy from black pink went 0 for three just got let you know as far as you know gramey's just disrespecting k-pop artists just had let you know

bt s still grammy list apparently they was nominated for something they still have uh bt s five nominations uh so that's what's up uh cat side was nominated for best new artist best pop duo slash group very egregious um you know they shouldn't have been nominated of course they didn't win um nearly half of the nine okay they broke they broke down the speeches that's what's what so trying to try to see who else kalani spoke i know where she spoke you know what let me see if i find that i know what she was speaking somebody up there was trying to don't look away now somebody was trying to don't look away now don't get shy now yeah we'll fold that up right now You know what I'm saying?

Like, Kalani, if you don't get up on the stage and say some, you know what I'm saying? We're trying to get these ratings up. All right. Anyways, I was going to see, Recorder Academy. Okay. So I see if I'm missing anything. Oh, I'm so glad I looked at my list. Ladies and gentlemen, we had Lauren Hill, the great Lauren Hill.

Put some respect to her name. She basically gave her first Grammy performance since 1999. It was a Fugees. I don't know why I'm saying it wrong. Fugees? Fugees reunion. tribute performances DeAngelo Roberta Flack

Ozzy Osbourne and after four years I'm not attending the Grammys apparently Justin Bieber you know decide to perform so that's what so Oh Rosian Oh you telling me

Nah bro see I know that ain't who I think it is You're telling me Bruno Mars is out here Performing And y'all still didn't give him the W? I know that's who I think of it is See, that's the problem.

I don't know. Usually when you perform, that gives them incentive. Like, hey, we have so-and-so performing. Other person that ain't going to show up. Let's give the award to this person. Well, nope. They still gave it to Ariana Grande and Cynthia Harrivo. Tell me if you saw Ariana Grande at the Grammys. Let me know that.

Let me know that. Bad Bunny and Kendrick dominated. Okay, yeah, we already know that. That's basically it. It's good. Yeah, the anti-ice speeches was very, very solid in impact, for my opinion. As far as the Super Bowl, it would be interested to see how that plays out because you already know you already know how that's going to go.

I mean, not even just because Bad Bunny is performing at the Super Bowl. That's the reason why I'm talking about it. Bad Bunny just, you know, one album of the year set to perform at the Super Bowl. Not only is it a big deal, but basically the way that certain people like to make statements, especially if they're beefing with the whole establishment, which Trump is, he's beefing with the whole NFL. It'd be interested to see how that event goes. I'm not wishing anything bad to happen. I just know the type of person that the NFL is dealing with.

So, you know, just keep that, you know, keep them in your prayers. You know what I'm saying? I think there was a reason why there was so many anti-ice rhetoric at the Grammys. So, yeah, man, shout out to side seven. I mean, white tank top. You know, once again, they show that, hey, you can never glazing by enough until you realize how the Grammys is glazing, Kenji Kumar. But then, you know what I'm saying?

I was like, damn, look at the state of hip-hop. Like, what's going on? So that'd be it said, click my link to try my bio. Let me know what am. social media is what do you think of my coverage of the 68th Grammy Awards and at the end of the day who do you think was the biggest snub and of course who are you most excited or no who were you most pleased to see when at the Grammys in year of 2026
