Easily. I really enjoyed all of those albums, especially Game Theory, but in terms of "robbery" the way Kendrick got robbed, for the grammys we have to factor in popularity. Them losing to Drake, Em' and Luda isn't really that surprising if you take popularity into account, whereas Kendrick right now is actually big enough to the point where one could factor in popularity and he still had a big chance. In fact to most people he seemed like the obvious pick, so obvious to the point that social media was going off. For the record I loved Kendrick's album as well too, oh well, he doesn't need a Grammy to validate him anyway, anyone young knows how that album was recieved and it will be remembered very fondly.

Also 98' is a pretty bad offender here....what the fuck. I know I wasn't old enough to know what was going on but god damn
