The Second City will definitely be in the house at the 51st Grammy Awards, as if that comes as a surprise to anyone. Kanye West & Lupe Fiasco both racked up multiple nominations, with ‘Ye pulling in 6 and Wasalu following with 4.
It’s great to see Lupe get the nod for Hip-Hop album of the year for The Cool, a category where he’s up against Nas, Jay, TI and Wayne. Speaking of Wayne, that little fella racked up a total of 8 nominations, leading the pack this year. What else can be said besides the voting board must’ve loved that song about him being a space alien or whatever.
