Jay-Z is well-known for having amassed enormous victories at the Grammy Awards. He has won 24 Grammy Awards and sold over 140 million records globally. In celebration of his musical legacy, the 66th Annual Grammy Awards presented the incredible hip-hop musician with the 2nd Annual Dr. Dre Global Impact Award. However, the Empire State of Mind rapper took the opportunity to call out the coveted awards voting system. «But, you know, some things — I don’t want to embarrass this young lady, but she has more Grammys than everyone and never won album of the year. So even by your own metrics, that doesn’t work. Think about that. Most Grammys never won Album of the Year. That doesn’t work,» he said referring to his wife Beyoncé, who has previously received four nominations but has never taken home the ‘Album of the Year’ award.
«We want y’all to get it right. At least getting close to right. And obviously, it’s subjective. Y’all don’t gotta clap at everything. It’s subjective because, you know, it’s music and it’s opinion-based,» the Run This Town artist stated.
