Shocking! JAY-Z Ties Grammy Record For Most Nominations With NO Wins After Mega Snub

Published: Sunday 28th Jan 2018 by Sam

JAY-Z fans were left stunned tonight when the rapper received zero awards at the 2018 Grammys – despite leading the field with 8 nominations.

Full story below…

The rapping mogul was nominated in multiple categories for his truth-baring ‘4:44’ album – and nabbed coveted spots in the shortlist Record Of The Year, Song Of The Year, and Album Of The Year.

However, as each were called, he was bested by the night’s top winners Kendrick Lamar and Bruno Mars. The latter of whom took home Record Of The Year and Song Of The Year.

The shocking occurrence sees Jay tie comrades Rihanna and Kanye West for most Grammy nominations with no wins. Indeed, the pair both led the field (along with Drake) at last year’s show with 8 nominations a piece – only to go home empty handed.

For Jigga, the snub is arguably more stinging on account of his loses coming after being listed in the Grammy’s main categories – a reality that wasn’t the case for Rih or ‘Ye. There’s also the fact that the ceremony took place in his hometown of New York City.

We imagine his Grammy Icon honor at Clive Davis’ gala last night is some consolation. But we imagine this will be heavily debated in the days, weeks, and years to come. Especially given the socio-political lean of ‘4:44.’

    Illuminati Highest Priest..aint nobody got time for his garbage and his wife. lol

      • Phewwww January 29, 2018

        Kanye got out just in time…. 🙁

      • Anti HipHop January 29, 2018

        Kanye exposed them last year.. ???

    • yawn January 28, 2018

      Stfu..go and play with your imaginary friend——-> Joanne.

      • Open Your Eyes, Minions January 29, 2018

        Gaga is also…Illuminati puppet with Taylor, Katy, Ke$ha and Miley.
        All of them…same club. All experience feeling suicidal…sold their dignity to sell records.

    • Spy Artist January 29, 2018

      His affiliation with illuminati/secret society is getting harder and harder to hide but they have a new puppet this year.. Kendrick.
      God knows who next year? This is how they (Hollywood) operate. If you are oblivious to this..you should Google and read. Music industry in the US is plagued with drugs, s*x, orgy, by invitation-only- parties, secret symbols, anti-Christ to promote a new world order. They are so dark. Their images, their music, their videos, their lyrics….everything about them is DARK and Satanist.
      Wonder why they keep recycling same artists over the years? These puppets would do anything for fame and they have signed a contact.. “a deal with the devil” in echanging their moral and souls with FAME!

    • truth hurts for beehiv+es January 29, 2018

      Riri saved the show. #fact

  3. Damn January 28, 2018

    Lol. That’s all one can say. Hope he doesn’t dwell on this but instead can find the honor in being nominated and how lucky he is to have his wife and kids. But let’s be real he’s prolly feeling some type of way lol.

  4. MARIAH January 28, 2018

    AMERICA IS TIRED OF THEIR ENTITLEMENT.
    HIM AND BEY PRETENDING LIKE… SOME KIND OF ROYALTY.
    TIME TO TAKE A LONG BREAK.

    • XYZ January 29, 2018

      Actually that is what I was thinking. I‘m so tired of how they behave and act lately. As if they were really Kings and Queens. I mean, his last video? Who does he think he is? Hopefully, this will humble him a bit.

      • Stand Up January 29, 2018

        Feel ya sis. Yaasss!

      • flawda January 29, 2018

        Black people are suppose to act like Kings and queens. You low self esteem n***** need to be eradicated.

  5. China January 28, 2018

    THIS IS HIS FIRST CD I DID NOT BUY

    • Say NO! to illuminati puppet January 29, 2018

      you are getting smarter. congrats…

    • Mmmmm January 29, 2018

      Illuminati’s supporter…repent, bish!!!

  6. Lisa January 28, 2018

    He didn’t deserve sht.

    • Faf January 28, 2018

      Damn did anybody win but Kendrick??

      Sza
      Cardi
      Jay

      All lost

  7. Hmmm… January 28, 2018

    I’m not shocked. It was Kendrick’s year. Or at least it was supposed to be. Seems more like Bruno’s. Song, Record, and Album? He dominated. I love Bruno but how he won AOTY is beyond me. I thought Lorde had it.

    • Jasmine January 29, 2018

      Bruno’s album was great and appealed to lots of audiences. Kendrick’s album was great but appealed to a slightly smaller audience. Thus, Bruno won. Everyone is not into hip-hop or rapping.

      • XYZ January 30, 2018

        But aren’t the Grammys supposed to reward impact? Though Bruno may have had the bigger audience you can‘t deny that Kendrick’s album had more impact than Bruno’s rehash of the 90ies record (though it has been done in a good way). Otherwise the Grammys are worthless and you could give the awards just to those who sold the most

  8. Ughhh January 28, 2018

    Snub? Bîtch where?

  9. Boss January 28, 2018

    DAmn i thought we was going to atleast get album of the year.
    I cnt believe he didnt get anything
    Now i think him and bey wont ever go to the grammys again they both been snubbed

    • Damn January 28, 2018

      They weren’t snubbed, they lost. If they boycotted all that would do is show that they have gotten too entitled and are sore losers.

      • Hmmm… January 28, 2018

        Nah. I don’t care about 4:44 but Beyonce was snubbed. 23, 25, whatever the hell it was did not deserve that win. The Grammys favor a particular sound and rewarded tradition. For whatever reason they keep snubbing Kendrick too. The Grammys gets it wrong a lot. I agree with you about boycotting though. It’s not necessary.

      • Twinkie January 29, 2018

        they all satan worshiper…ask kanye.

  10. Kim.Kesha& Pam January 28, 2018

    Why are people trying to act like 4:44 was such an amazing album/era. It honestly wasn’t.

  11. The Wig Snatcher January 28, 2018

    Hahahaaaaaaa!!! The Carters’ egos have been BRUISED!!!!

    And Sam cannot take it!!! LOL

  12. IG : mixedboy January 28, 2018

    Bruno deserved every award. Kendrick too. They outshined Jay-Z. ??‍♀️

    • BHYISI January 28, 2018

      Bruno didn’t even deserve half of his awards! FOH!

    • XYZ January 29, 2018

      No, Bruno did not. His album was fun, but no album of the year material. Lorde and Kendrick would have been better choices, by far

      • Meme January 29, 2018

        Agreed.

      • Jeans January 29, 2018

        Agreed. Bruno did not deserve no 7 Grammys. Please.

    • Jasmine January 29, 2018

      Bruno deserved it. His album you can listen to from beginning to end and jam to. Kendrick’s album has similar capability but I honestly do skip several songs on Kendrick’s album so Bruno deserved to get the award. Bruno’s music appeals to pop, r&b, and even country fans of all ages. Kendrick’s album appeals to the new generation and only some of the old generation. Bruno’s music is more universal.

  13. eric January 28, 2018

    When hype outweighs quality. No, he wasn’t snubbed.

  14. Tori January 28, 2018

    I just wanted him to win AITY so that Twinkie could win for “Family Feud” as part writer but oh well…

  15. BHYISI January 28, 2018

    This man has 21 Grammys already! It is not the end of the world!
    Also look at the trash you attached from your twitter posts, these Russian trolls are at it now.
    Some of you are so unhappy with yourselves you constantly attack this family like they did something to you. They both could lose every nomination for the rest of their careers and still be better off than GENERATIONS of your family!!
    Any person that uses Youtube videos as proof as the Illuminati is real and artist are in it, deserve to be misled.

  16. Lisa January 28, 2018

    About time somebody brings The Carters back down to earth. They think they are so entitled. Can always count on the Grammy’s to pay Bey and Jay’s overhyped albums dust every year. Hope Beck blocks Bey again.

    • BHYISI January 28, 2018

      How’s that going to help your miserable life? Girl go find you some business. There are artist right now with way worse attitudes and no one blinks an eye, yet one of the most humblest artist period is entitled for being popular? Do you even know how stupid you sound?

      • The Wig Snatcher January 29, 2018

        She bitter for Beyoncé and ain’t even on that heaux’s payroll. Russian troll.

    • Open Your Eyes, Minions January 29, 2018

      444 is a satanist numerology. America is getting tired of his gibberish occult Illuminati propaganda. Same shite different album…

  17. Jay-Sh*t January 28, 2018

    Money doesn’t translate his album into “quality”. Good job the Grammys. Bro..bye.

  18. Okayyyy January 29, 2018

    First, it was “He buys his Grammys”. Now it’s, “Money doesn’t translate into quality. Go Grammys”. Ya’ll dismiss the credibility of the Grammys and celebrate its decision mere hours later. Lol I can’t. Make up your mind.

    • Pleaseeeee… January 29, 2018

      He could not pay anymore. Tidal is a sinking ship….

  19. Jamie January 29, 2018

    I’m sure he’s not bothered. Money was made with and without the Grammys. The industry is upset with him because of Tidal. Simple as that!

  20. Grab Popcorn January 29, 2018

    They will make him go quietly like Russell Simmons and Cosby.
    Mark my words….

  21. Black Republican January 29, 2018

    The Carter family needs a reality check. This is a Trump’s era…maybe they should should join Obama selling books about…. Black Matters. Bye, b*tch.

    • University January 29, 2018

      LOL aww, did massa tell you to say that. Btw clown, stop postering up and down this post with different accounts. Say what your tap dancing ass has to say, and keep it moving you spineless coward.

      • Open Your Eyes, Minions January 29, 2018

        ^^^^
        Illiterate satan supporter..

      • University January 29, 2018

        Don’t project your lack of education you dolt. And once again coward, here you are with another account. Pathetic.

  22. yolanda January 29, 2018

    maybe he needs to get back on the street selling drugs? 🙂

    • Cbeylive January 29, 2018

      But the gag is he was still making more money than you ?

      • Not In My Name January 29, 2018

        Who cares? They will end up with drugs overdose or get kill by gang members!

  23. Say NO! to illuminati puppet January 29, 2018

    His music sucks. That’s why…

  24. Mmmmm January 29, 2018

    Illuminati gathering…2018 has just begun.

  25. Twinkie January 29, 2018

    High Priest Jay got snubbed? Time to recruit a new priest…perhaps?
    Opss..wait. Kendrick Lamar just got hired tonight….

  26. RealNegro January 29, 2018

    Yall aint slick talking about the Illuminati to distract from your secret agenda. These people have already stAted that theres no affiliation. They believe in God and king Jesus,, but anything to bring a man down. You guys are no different then Russian terrorists who forced Trump into office. Let us all have our own opinions instead of conspiracy theorists on people you deeply wish you were.

    • Not In My Name January 29, 2018

      Trump will smoke these Illuminati worshippers out. Not a big fan of Trump but he got a point. America is a sh*thole and music industry deteriorating really fast. I miss the 80s and 90s just pure art and music.

  27. RealNegro January 29, 2018

    Go night The Real ILLUMINATI! Shunning people of color for centuries by claiming theyre in YOUR organization. Racists!

  28. University January 29, 2018

    TGJ…the MOST nominations with no wins, goes to Paul McCartney who went 0-9 in 1965.

  29. Davii January 29, 2018

    That’s what he and his ugly ass wife deserve

  30. Anti HipHop January 29, 2018

    Jay and Bea have lost their leaders- Barrack Obama and Oprah. They should go quietly. Those pretencious “I Will Make An Impact” days are long gone. Sit!

  31. Wekkkkkkkk January 29, 2018

    His fascination with Illuminati is getting old and tiresome. Even Kanye can’t stand them (Bey and Jay) anymore. Snowflakes of Music Industry!

  32. Elio January 29, 2018

    I love Beyoncé knowles as much as I hate Beyoncé carter, she’s better without all that couple thing.

  33. Yolanda January 29, 2018

    Hello my loves…

  34. TRUTH SERUM January 29, 2018

    I see the Russian bots are out in full force! They have infiltrated TGJ. He spoke negatively against 45 and the racist are fuming. Fake accounts, typing the same rhetoric from 20 different accounts won’t change anything. Eminem did a whole diss track and he said nothing . Stay woke!

  35. JOHNVIDAL January 29, 2018

    I´m surprised Bruno won those many. Although I won´t say he doesn´t deserve it cause he is great. He is the best mainstream male star and has been for 8 years now. I think they somehow pulled an oscars type of thinking and thought he was earned it not just for this particular album. Jay Z… I don´t care. He didn´t have a great era. So many nods was already off. Lorde´s album was the best imo. But like I said I cannot be mad if someone like Bruno wins. They have done way worse with Taylor winning the big prizes two years for example. That was the moment when grammys hit an all time low.

  36. Anne January 29, 2018

    I think think they knew ahead of time that he wouldn’t win any. That’s why he declined to perform and Beyonce barely made an appearance for any of the announcements, at which point Jay wad always appearing to be either distracted by Blue or distracting Blue so that she wouldn’t be disappointed when he didn’t win. I think they only showed up because of the honor in receiving nominations in the major categories, which is especially a big deal for rap.
