For years the GRAMMY Awards have been criticized for
their lack of diversity in their categories, especially in the genre of hip-hop
and rap. Remember when they awarded Macklemore over Kendrick Lamar in
2014? For the first tie in history, all of the artists for Record of the Year are people of color.
Jay-Z is leading the pack of nominations with 8 for his 4:44 album. Kendrick Lamar has 7 nominations for DAMN. Bruno Mars has five nominations thanks to 24k Magic. It's a great thing to see that the leaders are minorities!
