He recently had his say during his acceptance speech at the Grammy Awards, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, there are more important things in life than winning Grammys because the criteria for winning are very subjective, especially as a household name like Beyonce has never won Best Album.
Jay Z added that he does not understand how someone who has more Grammies than everyone else has never been deemed fit to win the Best Album award.
His words, “I don’t want to embarrass this young lady, but she has more Grammys than everyone and never won Album of the Year.
So even by your own metrics, that doesn’t work. Think about that. The most Grammys; never won Album of the Year. That doesn’t work.”
WOW.
