After seeing the complete list, fans noticed some big names were missing from it, like Nicki Minaj, SZA, Megan Thee Stallion, Summer Walker, Kanye West, Alicia Keys, and more. The “Super Freaky Girl” called the Grammys out a few weeks ago. The Queen wasn’t feeling the Academy after they put “SFG” in the pop category, and Nicki tried to explain why it deserves to be in the rap category. As it turns out, it didn’t make either category; none of her songs/albums were mentioned.
Nicki fans are shocked, considering newer artists are a part of the award show. “Super Freaky Girl” made history by remaining on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for ten consecutive weeks, marking her most prolonged stay on the Top 10 charts of her career. Online users point out that the Grammys have been shady toward Nicki since her controversial performance in 2012.
The ceremony will take place in Los Angeles on Feb. 5.
