Shouts to Kendrick Lamar on his Much Deserved Grammy Noms

The highest bastion of American music honors nominated K Dot for 11 of their awards yesterday, more than any other artist. It was also more than he’s ever been nominated for during his career combined up until this point, and it’s all thanks to his most recent album.
What’s funny is that it’s the same academy that snubbed Kendrick of actually winning the honors just two years ago, presumably because either the judges felt the album wasn’t commercial enough or they just weren’t hip.
Regardless, it seems that the Grammy voters are coming around and perhaps you should too. I know, I know, “King Kunta” and “i” aren’t as fun to dance around to during shows as “Money Trees,” “m.A.A.d city” and “Backseat Freestyle.” But you know what? That’s the great part. It’s another leaf on the Kendrick Lamar tree you can pick when you’re feeling more vigilant, or even march to during a rally for yet another innocent or slightly troubled youth gunned down by those supposed to be protecting us.
