The Grammys have become a joke

Fame IV

In my opinion, the Grammys have become a joke. I don't know if there's any Kendrick Lamar fans here that can explain to me how he is considered a genius. To say that is an insult to every songwriter, writer and poet on this planet. The lyrics are just terrible, and hip-hop can be much better than that.

But the GRAMMYs nominated this song for Record of the Year. See the lyrics. 

"HUMBLE."
Nobody pray for me, it been that day for me, waaaaay (yeah, yeah!)


Aye, I remember syrup sandwiches and crime allowances
Finesse a ***** with some counterfeits
But now I'm counting this
Parmesan where my accountant lives in fact I'm down at this
D'usśe with my boo bae, tastes like kool aid for the analysts
Girl, I can buy your ass the world with my paystub
Ooh that *** good, won't you sit it on my taste bloods
I get way too petty once you let me do the extras
Pull up on your block, then break it down we playing Tetris
A.M. to the P.M., P.M. to the A.M. funk
Piss out your per diem you just gotta hate em, funk
If I quit your BM I still ride Mercedes, funk
If I quit this season I still be the greatest, funk
My left stroke just went viral
Right stroke put lil baby in a spiral
Soprano C, we like to keep it on a high note
It's levels to it, you and I know, bitch be humble

(Hol' up bitch) sit down,
(Hol' up lil bitch, hol' up, lil bitch) be humble
(Hol' up bitch) sit down (sit down hol' up lil bitch)
Be humble (bitch)
(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) bitch sit down
Lil bitch (hol' up lil bitch) be humble
(Hol' up bitch) sit down
(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) be humble
(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up, hol' up lil bitch) sit down
(Hol' up lil bitch) be humble
(Hol' up bitch) sit down (hol' up sit down lil bitch)
(Sit down lil bitch) be humble
(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up, hol' up lil bitch) bitch, sit down
(Hol' up lil bitch) be humble
(Hol' up bitch) sit down
(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up, hol' up)

Who dat ***** thinking that he fronting on man man (man man)
Get the **** off my stage, I'm the sandman (sandman)
Get the **** off my ****, that ain't right
I make a play ****ing up your whole life
I'm so ****ing sick and tired of the Photoshop
Show me something natural like afro on Richard Pryor
Show me something natural like ass with some stretch marks
Still will take you down right on your mamma's couch in polo socks, aye
This **** way too crazy, aye
You do not amaze me, aye
I blew cool from AC, aye
Obama just paged me, aye
I don't fabricate it, aye
Most of ya'll be faking, aye
I stay modest bout it, aye
She elaborate it, aye
This that Grey Poupon, that Evian, that Ted Talk, aye
Watch my soul speak, you let the meds talk, aye
If I kill a ***** it won't be the alcohol, aye
I'm the realest ***** after all, bitch be humble

(Hol' up bitch) sit down,
(Hol' up lil bitch, hol' up, lil bitch) be humble
(Hol' up bitch) sit down (sit down hol' up lil bitch)
Be humble (bitch)
(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) bitch sit down
(Lil bitch) (hol' up lil bitch) be humble
(Hol' up bitch) sit down
(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up, hol' up) be humble
(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up, hol' up lil bitch) sit down
(Hol' up lil bitch) be humble
(Hol' up bitch) sit down (hol' up sit down lil bitch)
(Sit down lil bitch) be humble
(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up, hol' up lil bitch) bitch, sit down
(Hol' up lil bitch) be humble
(Hol' up bitch) sit down
(Hol' up, hol' up, hol' up, hol' up)

You just don’t understand the references he was putting in there. Don’t take the lyrics in face value. You are embarassing yourself rn.

Gaga has 6 Grammys, while Bjork and Kate Bush have none, David Bowie had only 1 until 2017... so yeah, a total joke

Really? Ed and Despacito are nominated for awards, and you're attacking the one person who actually deserves the praise?

Well I mean 

Jeremiah 13:18 “Say unto the king and to the queen, Humble yourselves, sit down…”

It has a number of variations but that's the King James Bible version and a few others. That's surely where he is referencing, he said himself that he is speaking about himself in the chorus. It's a cool way to position himself as the 'king' while also referencing the biblical story that teaches the responsibility of such a title and that kings must set an example of repentance and reformation for others.

OT though: Humble is a pretty solid hip-hop song. It's braggadocious on the surface but filled with clever wordplay and interesting metaphors.

Oh no baby no

you’re attacking the wrong artist here

also this thread has become a yearly tradition, people backtrack if Gaga wins something anyway
