EVERY Eminem album except Encore won Best Rap Album. LOL. Grammy voters have no shame.
Second thing that stands out,
Dayum @ how many times the roots got beat by an obviously inferior album.
-2013: Drake's Take Care beats The Roots "Undun" and Nas "Life Is Good" -2011: Eminem's Recovery beats The Roots "How I Got Over" -2010: Eminem's Relapse beats Mos Def's "The Ecstatic" and Q-Tip's "The Renaissance" -2009: Lil Wayne's The Carter beats Jay-Z – American Gangster, Lupe Fiasco's The Cool, Nas – Untitled -2007: Ludacris' Relapse Theory beats The Roots "Game Theory" and Lupe's "Food & Liquor" -2000: Eminem's SSLP beats The Roots "Things Fall Apart" -1998: Puff Daddy's No Way Out beats Wu Forever and Biggie's Life After Death
Thoughts? 2011, 2010, and 2007 are worse to me than The Heist beating GKMC. Yeah, it was Kendrick's breakout album and he deserves it, but I like The Heist a lot. But...Recovery over HIGO? Relapse Theory over Game Theory AND F&L??? thats the worst one to me, actually
