“I am not an icon,” the Houston rapper says in his acceptance speech. “I’m lyin. I’ve been doing this for 27 years. Twenty-seven years ago, you couldn’t have told me that I would be standing up on stage in front of y’all tonight saying something that I’m making up off the top of my head. Twenty-seven years of this, I know too many of y’all. There’s too many of y’all to name. From start to finish, appreciate y’all. Seriously. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I ain’t shit without y’all.”

Battlerap cyphers has been the best since shady 2.0 killed it
Redman is your rappers fav rapper forreal
Drake got 4 awards and not even mentioned but Kendrick the head on the article. Wow
Probably did it just to make you upset.
Drake is only good for his features because his slave legion make any song he’s on seem hot. He got no award for his individual work so he doesn’t deserve the headline.
T.I. and Dro killed this
