Drake turns down his 2022 Grammy Nominations and no one knows why
Music

Despite there being no clear motivation, Drake’s management team have asked the Recording Academy to remove his 2022 Grammy nomination.The ‘6 God’ was one of the five nominees for Best Rap Album, for Certified Lover Boy and for Best Rap Performance for his song ‘Way 2 Sexy’.

Drizzy only won four Grammys, despite being the most streamed artist of the decade. His relationship with the Grammys has always been a sketchy and weird connection as the rapper was famously cut off at the 2019 awards during his acceptance speech.The speech cut off to an advert abruptly, with the Grammys telling Variety that they thought his speech was over.Drake, real name Aubrey Graham, delivered quite a big chunk of his speech in 2019, but said that despite being cut off, he still said what he intended.

It remains to be seen why Drake gave up his nominations, but his previous criticisms of previous nominations and wins might give some hints as to why.
