OK IF MACKLEMORE WINS BEST RAP ALBUM GRAMMY AWARD?


Should Macklemore be the man to take home 2014 Grammy for Best Hip Hop Album, and not Kendrick Lamar, lovers of the genre should open their ears to change. The Grammys is filled with plenty of awards but, this year, leave it to hip hop to provide one of the most controversial categories of the bunch–the Best Rap Album category: The Heist (Macklemore & Ryan Lewis), good kid… m.A.A.d city (Kendrick Lamar), Magna Carta Holy Grail (Jay Z), Yeezus (Kanye West) and Nothing Was the Same (Drake). After being heralded as a classic and impressive among rap debuts, the consensus within the general hip-hop community is that Kendrick’s effort should snatch the gold-plated gramophone trophy. But there’s also belief that Seattle newcomers Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, who dedicated their entire indie run to breaking barriers, can steal the big win.
