WORD UP!
We waited for D, right? Five years, and that brotha got love from the grammys. Not to say that Blackstar will at anytime win a grammy, but then again, why the hell not? The Roots got one.

Maybe we should start a grammy watch on all OK artists, just to start some shit. Start beefin when they get overlooked, like we "give a fuck about a goddamn grammy" (love to P.E.)

I'm still bumpin the Blackstar joint. Kweli got the banging track with Jonelle, "Round And Round" that reminds me of Kelis everytime I hear it (Damn you look good in that Busta vid).
