Cardi B walked away from the 61st Annual Grammy Awards on Sunday night (February 10) with a trophy in the Best Rap Album category for Invasion Of Privacy. It marked the first time in Grammy history a solo female artist has won in that particular category.
Following her win, the always colorful Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar shared an Instagram video of herself celebrating the momentous occasion. But she didn’t forget the late Mac Miller, whose Swimming album was also nominated for Best Rap Album.
“Thank you so much!” she begins. “Thank you Bardi gang for always supporting me … I read an article that Mac Miller’s family said that if he don’t win, they want me to win, so I’m sharing this Grammy with you muthafucka. Rest in peace. Thank you everybody. Bronx up!”
Miller passed away last September following a drug overdose. In the wake of his untimely death, his parents Karen Meyer and Mark McCormick were invited to the ceremony to accept any posthumous awards on his behalf. Although their son didn’t win, the Pittsburgh-bred musician was included in the tribute reel of those we lost in 2018.
Miller was 26 at the time of his death.
This is the illuminatis boldest move yet
This is the illuminatus boldest move yet
Yeah the powers that be really pulled the strings for some ex stripper escort up North to win a grammy. This is the sign of the times where class, media savvy, talent don’t count for crap because the new generation respects total ignorance, acting an a$$, and sounding dumb as long as they’re “keeping it real”
TALENT SELLS. Numbers do not lie. As far as the new generation Once upon a time that was us.
Numbers doesn’t equal skills..Some fans are SUPER STANS..There more fan of the artist rather than the music.So they’ll support the artist no matter what trash they put out.So numbers DO LIE if your stupid to think the artist that sells the most is the most talented…And Cardi doesn’t even write her own songs lol
Shoulda dedicated it to all hip hop artist who lost their lives,female rap artist of the past and those who paved the way for her generation to be here on stage at all.
Meanwhile……2Pac, Nas, Bob Marley, Snoop have not won one. Grammys are a joke
I thought that push should’ve won but shout out Cardi B anyway..that’s a huge come up
Diss the kardadhian and drake.n migos and still no news on it
It’s a great album with broad appeal. It’s a well-deserved win. I appreciate the shoutout to Mac Miller.
Bruh I only listened to that shit after he died..short of calling it a classic it is a GREAT work of hiphop art. A genuine cry for help before his relapse killed him.
On another note…how was KAMIKAZE not nominated for a GRAMMY???
A stripper honoring a dead druggie….way to go Grammys.
Ariana finds a way to involve herself in anything she can to get attention. Don’t know any of her songs and have no thoughts on her talents but I do think that when it comes to hip hop and how it’s awarded, she can keep her opinion to herself. I knew mac and he was good but it doesn’t mean he deserves to win because he passed. Grammys are biased and apparently so is she because she dated someone that got nominated. Just stay quiet for once and thank you next later. Just shut up for a few days and the world will
Be better off.
