Drake Slams Grammys With Reminder To Artists That Awards Don't 'Dictate' Anything In Epic Rant

The rapper took to his Instagram stories to remind everyone that the Grammys are just 'the opinion of a group of people' and that they don't actually 'dictate sh*t in our world.'

Though Drake was nominated for four Grammys for his and 21 Savage's Her Loss, he opted out of attending the event, but he definitely still made a statement.

Just before the ceremony was set to begin on Sunday evening, the rapper took to his Instagram stories to share a message with all the nominees.


He wrote:

“All you incredible artists remember this show isn’t the facts it’s just the opinion of a group of people who’s name are kept a secret (literally you can google it) congrats to anybody winning anything for hip hop but this show doesn’t dictate sh*t in our world.”

The message overlayed a clip of his 2019 Best Rap Song Grammys acceptance speech for his song “God’s Plan."

In that speech, Drake shared the same sentiment.

“We play in an opinion-based sport, not a factual-based sport. […]"
"You’ve already won if you have people who are singing your songs word for word, if you’re a hero in your hometown…"
"Look, if there’s people who have regular jobs who are coming out in the rain, in the snow, spending their hard-earned money to buy tickets to come to your shows, you don’t need this right here, I promise you. You already won.”

And people on social media completely agreed.














Congrats to all the nominees, trophies or not, who have made their mark.
