Nicki Minaj Will Be Nominated Five Times In Rap Categories For The 2023 Grammys
Nicki Minaj will reportedly be nominated five times in rap categories for the 2023 Grammys following Grammy’s backlash.
Nicki Minaj, had the inanest in shambles last week when she called out the Grammy’s for moving her hit ‘Super Freaky Girl’ from the rap category to pop, and it looks like the stunt may have gotten their attention. According to a recent report from Variety, Grammy voters who’ve received their ballots reportedly say that Nicki is in contention in the best rap performance category for another song of hers.
The song in question is her single, ‘Do We Have a Problem,’ which features Lil Baby. The bop dropped in February and landed at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The Queen isn’t done yet! Variety also reports she will make several more appearances on the rap part of the Grammy ballot for collaborative songs. Coi Leray’smusicg, ‘Blick Blick’ is on the ballot for Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song. Yung Bleu’s song, ‘Love in the Way,’ in which she is also featured, is also listed among the eligible songs for Best Rap Song and Best Melodic Rap Performance.
Although the full Grammy nominations haven’t officially dropped, Nicki’s newfound beef with Latto has many wondering if there will ever be unity between the rap gworlz. As we previously reported on October 13th, the Queens native hopped on live for seventeen minutes, airing out her frustration about the category change while taking shots at Latto for her song, ‘Big Energy,’ featured in the rap category. Unfortunately, the two began a nasty exchange that folded out on Twitter. Altogether, Nicki appears eight times on the ballot. Once in the pop category, twice in the music video, and five times in the rap category. The official Grammy nominations will be announced on Tuesday, November 15th. Roommates, will you be tuning in to see if Nicki grabs her first Grammy on February 5th?
