Let's be honest here . We all know that the kd Grammy was a lifetime achievement award more than anything. Kinda like when Di caprio got an Oscar for the revenant. Nas should have taken the Grammy for life is good.
I thought Gibbs& ALC should've won Alfredo was amazing KD1 was damn good itself. KD3 was robbed highest rated rap album this decade didn't win anything is laughable. It was solo mission at that :dead:

I'ma prison cell six by nine
Livin' hell stone wall metal bars for the gods in jail
My nickname the can, the slammer, the big house
I'm the place many fear 'cause there's no way out
I take the sun away put misery instead
When you with me most folks consider you dead
I saw too many inmates fallin' apart
Call for the guards to let them out at night when it's dark
Convicts think they alone but if they listen close
They can hear me groan touch the wall feel my pulse
All the pictures you put up is stuck to my skin
I hear ya prayers (even when ya whisperin')
I make it hotter in the summer, colder in the winter
If the court parole ya then another con enters
No remorse for your tears I seen 'em too often
When you cry I make you feel alive inside a coffin
Watch you when you eat play with you mind when you sleep
Make you dream that you free then make you wake up to me
Face to face with a cage no matter your age
I can shatter you turn you into a savage in rage
Change ya life that's if you get a chance to get out
'Cause only you and I know what sufferings about
Yo it's stunnin' when bed sheets become your woman
And I'm the one that gotcha weapons when the beef is comin'
Maybe one day I'll open up my arms to release you
You'll always be my property nikka stay legal...

Where does this verse rank in his all time? shyt is still :mindblown: every time I hear it. Top 10? Top 20? Top 50

I agree that it was a lifetime achievement award. But I also feel that was the best album outta the category. That shouldn’t have been his 1st Grammy.
