The crazy thing is more black people appropriate & praise adele & vice versa with white people & beyonce

This aint a black & white thing this is a woman thing & mostly black women have a problem with adele winning


Lemonade wasnt a pop album & the reason it was critically acclaimed was because it was basically a womens guide to self empowerment at least for the most part thats why adele kept praising her & feels she shouldve won...

Yeah. But they do the same with Kendrick, so cant say Chance is the only one getting this treatment.
Only difference is Kendrick was on this tip from the jump.
From Section.80 to TPAB.
He and his production team were experimenting with Jazz breaks, sampling R&B etc.
Kendrick and Chance on the conceptual or musical level just really aren't comparable at all.
Let alone when you take all that away and just ask them to craft a rhyme....

I don't think that word means what you think it means.

As someone who has listened to all three records Anti is not up to par with 25 or Lemonade I don't get where people are seeing that. Artistically it's Rihanna's best effort to date (plus most cohesive album) and she can only do better from here but I knew she wasn't gonna win those big awards but damn 8 noms and went home with 0 Grammys really did her wrong.

As for Lemonade and 25 I knew 25 was going to win this didn't shock me in the least but overall Lemonade was a way more solid project. Beyonce gotta learn to not have so much "help" with the songwriting tho I think that's what's withholding her from winning AOTY on top of the blatant politics

But I agree with most sentiments here we gotta start supporting our own shyt fukk these white owned award shows. That BET Award is worth millions more imo

They may not be the same musically.

But still doesn't despute how both r getting CAC fans that perceive them as the only good artist that have came out this decade

My point is how Chance aint the the only one getting them as Kendrick gets them to.

That's my beef with the mainstream, it's perception of Black Artistry and of course Hip-Hop as a genre
and legitimate artistic force.
Hell I love Kendrick, I regularly champion the guy, however I also love Oddisee, Blu and Skyzoo three guys
who'll never see the same amount of sales,accolades and appreciation.

so adele won album and song of the year?....figured song, but surprised at album....while 25 has some damn good songs, lemonade was the better, more complete album....and you wouldve thought they wouldve gave beyonce the award this year, to make up for not giving it to her for the beyonce album.......
