’It’s dope to see a mix of different people get more recognized for their music now.’
Here’s proof that bad can lead to good: Travis Scott’s 2016 album Birds In The Trap Sing McKnight was snubbed at the Grammys, but that reportedly lit a fire under Scott, leading to his universally acclaimed record Astroworld. Scott’s A&R Sickamore said back in August, “The Grammy snub was probably the best thing that happened to us. It gave us a chip on our shoulder.”
Sure enough, Scott had no problem earning Grammy nominations this year, as Astroworld is up for Best Rap Album.
