The Grammy Awards are coming at us tomorrow night and we will have coverage here at Thirsty. Cardi B is ready for music’s big night, and she wanted to show some love to lesser-known artists in the process.
Cardi B didn’t diss the 63rd Grammy Awards like The Weeknd did, and she’s not no-showing like Justin Bieber. She took a moment to celebrate some underappreciated Black artists who were also nominated for awards. This comes off the news that the Weeknd won’t be submitting his work for consideration anymore.
She admitted to feeling frustrated to feel that your music is overlooked, she also gave plenty of love out. You can read her message below.
How I feel about the Grammy’s! I do feel that there were some albums and songs that should have been considered for nominations maybe by next year they will get it right .However let’s not forget the Grammy’s nominated soo many independent black artists this year that don’t get the exposure by blogs ,magazines and other award shows like Chika, D Smoke, Royce 5’9, Freddie Gibbs, Jay Electronica, Kaytranada, Brittany Howard„ Mykal Kilgore, Ledisi, Jean & Marcus Baylor, Luke James, Gregory Porter, Giveon, Ant Clemons, Robert Glasper, Free Nationals & Thundercat and so much more.
It’s frustrating sometimes to work and work on your craft and you feel overlooked because you might not look Eke others are not mixxy so you not always around other artists, you rap or sing about different material, you stay out of drama and the media or yet still not as popular however youre talented ass fuck and one day you wake up and you find out youre nominated and got a notice from one of the biggest award shows purely cause of your TALENT!

Soo besides all the bullshit let’s not forget to congratulate these artists. This is their moment too and they been working their ass off with no exposure and let’s not overshadow it with feelings cause your favorite might not be on the list .Congrats guys and good luck on the Grammys. You deserve it .
Cardi B is obviously not boycotting the Grammy Awards like the Weeknd decided to do. Instead, she paid tribute to some people who aren’t getting as much press as they probably should in a day and age where controversies grab so many headlines.
