    I’m not even saying Jay was snubbed. Some good folk won. I’m just saying this was my album all year longhttps://twitter.com/shaunking/status/957832787318493184 …

    I liked a lot of music this year, but 4:44 was my soundtrack. I grew up on Jay Z from my senior year in high school over 20 years ago until now. I kept this on repeat. I don’t agree with every lyric, but it was his truth and I dug the hell out of it. Never gets old to me. pic.twitter.com/5OiY2HWxLl

        Either Kendrick or Jay. They both had a narrative to their albums. Bubblegum pop hits?? Not in this current climate. Huge let down to what I thought was a good night. #GRAMMYs

        For me it was Everybody by Logic (not nominated). The nerd in me subconsciously awarded bonus points for @neiltyson's appearances. 😊

        DAMN was Great but 4:44 was EXCEPTIONAL .....I love Bruno, but he didnt deserve best record, song album. This album wasn't his best work. Popular radio play.

        Loved this album. I know you to be particularly woke... You should check out @cescru . Skilled MC's that speak about the state of the world frequently.

        I wondered if ANYONE would comment on J getting blanked. I love my man @BrunoMars, but what does it say that his feel good album got the nod over J's more socially relevant one? And no shade to BM.

        I am with you on this. When you have an album that gets to you like that it does your soul good.

        For 2018, check out @mavisstaples brilliant new album, 'If All I Was Was Black'. This record needs to be heard...best socio-political record that Grooves in a long time.

        Perhaps a downside to being a tidal exclusive for so long?

        Mine to. If you followed his career you wouldn't understand its significance. My 1st no skips album in a LONG time. Good ppl won and those decisions were made wks ago, but were "safe" decisions. Jay was independent before we knew the power being so had, some ppl dont like that.
